| There's an old saying in the Indian Nation: When accused of being a fake Indian, go on the warpath. Didn't work too well for Ward Churchill, but about the only option. Funny, she doesn't look Siouxish... And so we have Granny Warren, the carpetbagging Democrat candidate for the U.S. Senate doubling down after being unable to produce a scintilla of evidence to back up her claims to a piece of the racial-preference racket. It's not like she needs Dawes Roll documentation or anything - if she 'feels' she's Indian, that's all that matters. I don't suppose she'd want Romney to check it out for her. Evidence? She don't need no stinkin' evidence. She's got her family "lore." She's "proud" to be an Indian. It's the kind of fact-free, how-dare-you defense only a Beautiful Person could get away with. I know who 25 of my 32 ggg-grandparents were and none were Indian; four of the unknows could possibly have been, but I doubt it; one of the knowns was rumored to have maybe been part Indian - so can I get Affirmative Action status? These grandcestors were all 9probably) born between 1770 and 1825. |

| #17 Isn't 1/32 a small enough fraction that even during the height of segregation you could count as 'white' with that much black heritage? You mean couldn't count? Yes. And not just in the segregation era, either but up to 1983. |

| #10 #2 The was a time when classical liberals [before the Left compromised and acquired the term] protested the South African government's apartheid system based upon percentage of blood to segregate the races and maintain their rule. today's liberals embrace that concept as a fundamental pillar of faith in their political universe. Posted by Procopius2k "Apartheid" is dood. It was replaced by the African National Congress (ANC) and garden variety communism, masquareding as democracy. Any similarities to our current leadership in Washington and our hopeless state of affairs is purely coincidental. [snark off] |

| #9 The whole idea that one of your ancestors 200 years ago should make any difference today is nuts. Unless they, acting as sovereign powers, signed treaties with the United States which were duly ratified. Unless you consider the US Constitution "nuts". |

| #7 And George Zimmerman is 1/8 Black. More than Obama but he's still called White by the MSM. Ethnicity is variable these days. |

| #5 Isn't 1/32 a small enough fraction that even during the height of segregation you could count as 'white' with that much black heritage? How much Jewish heritage did it take for the Nazis to murder non-practicing Jews? The whole idea that one of your ancestors 200 years ago should make any difference today is nuts. But apparently it makes a difference in Affirmative Action. |

| #3 Wouldn't voting for someone because of their race be just as racist as not voting for someone because of their race? Or do I not understand something? Anyway, wherever did she get the idea that being part Indian would be a good thing in an election? Where is she going to find racists to vote for her? That would be stupid, wouldn't it? |
