Unfortunately for all of us Obama played president and look how well that worked out.

Warrens critics have accused her in the past of claiming Native American heritage in order to advance her academic career.No, it is a matter of verifiable fact that this is exactly what Warren did. She used deception to claim minority heritage for the sole purpose of self advancement to the detriment of other candidates.
That The Hill frames this issue as something only "her critics" point out only serves to show that The Hill's author is sympathetic to Warren and likely to the Democrat Party. A very simply journalist type search would reveal the facts that Warren did indeed foster this deception, but I suppose it's too much to ask that a journalist do their job lest they are forced to confront the truth which would then prevent them from assisting their Party of choice.

I presume that Jennifer Lawrence would phone in that performance like she did her performance in X-Men Apocalypse.

She could play a lab technician.

Perfect, a fake actress playing a fake Injun posing as a fake lawyer who gets $350K per year to teach a fake law class before parlaying her fake credentials into a fake national political career.
FAUXCAHONTAS is the perfect title for this film!

“so obvious this moron slept to get her parts...”
Yeah ... those leaked photos of her kind of indicate that she did her bid for king and country to become famous.
She *used* to be someone I didn’t mind looking at. Some of her movies were fairly good (American Hustle ... and I dug Joy to some extent ... and Hunger Games) ... these days, I can’t stand to look at her. She just seems scummy.
She’s going to be one of those actors that kind of fades away only to be rediscovered by a Quentin Tarantino kind of director about 15 years from now. She’ll be in some big hit film and she’ll start running her mouth about Trump ruining her career sometime during the end of the second term of the Pence Administration ;-) .

who FALSELY claims Native American hetitage
It’s like when John F Kerry’s staff put into the Congressional record that he was part Irish.
All about votes and getting ahead, who cares about whether democrats tell the truth
