Full title: Warren rejects DNA test idea to prove Native American ancestry: 'Nobody is going to take that part of me away'

Posted a couple of times but here is the Yahoo "article". Check out the comments, LOL.

Gee, now why would she refuse to take a DNA test? Boy, that's a tough one.

Warren/Sanders 2020? Well, we're ready Ms. Warren.

You’ll not get one hair off that squaw’s head. Even the tribe rejected her scalp.

“Warren told a story about how her mother and father, born and raised in Oklahoma, met as teenagers and fell head-over-heels in love. Her father’s family was bitterly opposed to their relationship, she said, because her mother was part Native American”

She’s totally insane.

Scientific facts aren’t going to take away the Warren family tradition of lying.

The hilarity of this is that someone, *anyone* can claim to have gotten a sample of Warren’s DNA, from like a discarded drinking cup, a facial tissue, all kinds of detritus just like that. And they they can claim that they have submitted her DNA to three different testing organizations.

Then they can play up a “breaking news announcement” about whether Warren has any Native American DNA in her “at all”, or else she is “a lying fraud, a living insult to every American Indian.”

And there’s not a damned thing she can do about it.

The best part is that it is “the gift that keeps on giving”, so they can then say, “though she has no Native American in her, guess what she *does* have!?!”

They can claim that she has “notorious slave owner” DNA in her, and not too many generations back her ancestors owned slaves. They can assert that she is a blood relative of some of the most repulsive people in US history.

argued that her family’s claim

One can declare they are most anything when they don't have to prove it.

The evidence of this is in white people who declare they are black without proof; a male person who declares he is female without proof; an old man who declares he is a young girl without proof. In some cases the law can force others to accept their declarations without proof.

Warren used her supposed Native American ancestry to get ahead at Harvard under affirmative action. Were her DNA not to show Native American ancestry or be too far removed to qualify as a minority she could be looking a fraud charges. She may have already taken a DNA test surreptitiously and knows he damning result to her political career were her lie to be exposed

An autosomal DNA test depicting estimated ethnicity won’t necessarily prove whether Warren is part Cherokee or not. If someone had one cherokee marry into their family 4-5 generations back it may or may not show up on the ethnicity results.

What the tests are useful for is to match against distant cousins. You can see which chromosome segments have the matches. If you and your distant cousins have done their family research (which isn’t perfect either) you may be able to come close to proving your ancestry.

Warren should take the tests and see if she matches against any known Cherokee descendants in that area / time period. So yes DNA tests can be used to provide Cherokee ancestry — I just would not count on the so-called ethicity results to confirm anything.

It’s a part of me, and nobody is going to take that part of me away — not ever,” Warren said. Even if it was a lie...

ATTENTION HARVARD LAW SCHOOL:

You were scammed by Princess Liawatha when she claimed during the interview process that she had Indian blood.

“That’s the story that my brothers and I all learned from our Mom and our Dad, from our grandparents and all of our aunts and uncles. It’s a part of me, and nobody is going to take that part of me away — not ever,” Warren said...the facts may not be accurate, but the story's true - another member of the Dan Rather Version of Reality Club.....

Those DNA kits are so cheap I'd gladly donate one to her if she'd agree to take the test - call me, Liz.....

My Grandmother on the Scots side told us we were descended from Rob Roy “on the wrong side of the blanket” (illegitimate, no marriage)

My take is that someone from Rob Roy’s army told a local lassie a story.

The reason she doesn’t want the test is clear she’s afraid of the truth. However it’s not as cut and dry I imagine as we might believe.

What probably happened originally is probably close to what she said: her father’s family didn’t like the idea he wanted to marry a woman who wasn’t a pure WASP like he was. But the problem for Warren is that the romantic story her parents told her, while the truth in some respects, is probably not sustainable or supportable with genetic evidence.

In other words, while her mother wasn’t a pure enough WASP for her paternal grandparents, she probably didn’t have much more American Indian heritage than you or I. And this “heritage” was further diluted in Warren herself.

So she finds herself in a sticky wicket. Because she has this romantic story she’s told for decades about her parents (which is probably mostly true) but she’s relied too heavily on it to advance her career and now there exists a way to either prove or disprove her story. But she doesn’t want to go down that road because she knows all she has is a story of some bigoted WASP family who didn’t want their son to marry a non WASP, which is really nothing in comparison to the romantic picture she’s painted about her parents and herself. And besides, if that real ugly truth comes out, then those who still vote for her in that state will be turned off, as there are still probably some of her supporters who would still not want their daughters or sons not marrying a non-WASP from the region of New England.

Couldn’t happen to a nicer person though. Hope she drowns in her hypocrisy.
