Lying about something which, even if true is irrelevant to the job of President, seems pointless to me.

I am sure the Cherokee nation comprise many fine people, never having met one as far as I know, but does being a full-blooded Cherokee somehow position one as being more suited to high political office than otherwise?

I don’t see how that’s possible. Obama basically got a free pass for being of a certain mixed racial background that seemed like it should get a chance to shine to some evidently not very bright voters. Well, maybe a different person from the same background would have been a better choice if that was the objective.

And the job of President of the United States is just too important to give away for sentimental or guilt-based reasons like this.

The important thing is not what percentage Cherokee she might be (and who cares) but whether any percentage of any race matters. There might be a full-on Hungarian out there (assuming American birth) who would be the greatest president yet. And there might not. But let’s allow actual ability to determine these important questions and not give out participation awards at this highest level.

Race is a social construct. How dare we question a woman’s personal truth. Believe women .. at least women on the left side of the issue.
