The $69 question Senator Warren chooses to ignore

For just $69, U.S. Sen. Elizabeth Warren could settle the question of her ancestry once and for all.

That is the sale price (regularly $99) that Ancestry DNA is charging for searching your family genealogy.

Millions of Americans have done it, either through Ancestry, 23andMe or some other ancestry research organization.

Better still, she could walk down the street in Cambridge and consult with fellow Harvard educator Henry Louis Gates Jr., who hosts the popular and fascinating PBS television program “Finding Your Roots.

I thought people had already done that and proved she has not Indian blood.

I know that people in MA, such as talk show host Howie Carr, had offered to pay for her test, but she blew that off.

You know she already did the test and the results were not to her liking or the results would be headline in MSM.

If she runs for President they will fake results, just like O’bummer’s birth certificate.

There is a Cherokee group in Oklahoma who has researched her genealogy and they have said there is no Cherokee in her family line, and they have asked her to cease and desist the lie

Have to admit the show is just that, fascinating.

The left wingers insist that she is such a fabulous candidate that this little slip-up has absolutely no importance whatsoever. She also didn’t need to claim Indian ancestry because her intellect was so overpowering she would have gotten her appointment to Harvard anyway.

A test would not be conclusive. When you go back several generations, there are ancestors whom you have not inherited any DNA from. There are cases of people with securely documented genealogical descent from an American Indian tribe but it does not show up in their DNA test.

In Liz's case, she may have inherited DNA from the ancestor who helped the federal government in the deportation of the Cherokees.

Won’t be quite once and for all because not all ancestor DNA is visible in the test.

And once-republican US Senate candidate, and now known nutjob, Shiva shipped her a DNA kit. Shiva is Indian (asian), but had a perfect slogan - elect a real indian instead of a fake one.

But, he flamed out for girlfriend abuse. Good riddance (but hattip for the DNA kit distraction)

"If you don't like the answer, don't ask the question." Of course if she takes the test and is proven a LIAR, FRAUD and CHEAT it increases her "street cred" with dems.

I’m sure she’ll do this... and be willing to pay $69,000 (or more 1%er that she is)... to have the results faked!

The “high cheek bones” which are apparently the entire basis of Senator Warren’s assertion she is of Native American descent, are not necessarily of that origin. Many of Eastern European descent also have similar high cheek bones, an indication they are of Slavic descent. Slavs, in turn, are probably latter-day remnants of the Golden Horde that swept across the Asian steppes as far as the Middle East and across the Urals, under Kublai Khan, spreading their genetic heritage.

Stick to theories that are at least plausible.

Warren is going to ride that horse as long as possible. Someone needs to get a sample of her DNA and have it tested. !00 to 1 she HAS ZERO Mative American blood.

Unfortunately DNA testing may or may not show any links. She’s been a liar from the start but testing results depend on which side of the family she inherited the majority of her genes from.

My lineage shows mostly British Isles and Scandinavian ancestry from my father’s side of the family and my brother shows mostly western European, Swiss and German from my mother’s side.

It’s 50-50 whether she’d show much more than a single 400-year old marriage of a European ancestor to an Indian ancestor, depending on when her ancestors actually came here.

She is a fraud like all Democrats and undocumented Democrats in R jerseys.

We need new Senators.

The ones we have want to give the country to illegal aliens.

My wife has Native American ancestry to the same degree claimed by Warren. Family lore said a great grandmother was of Iroquois descent, but my wife’s sister decided to have one of those DNA tests which confirmed the Native American heritage. There only reason Warren won’t do the same DNA test is that it could reveal she is a liar.
