Elizabeth Warren is running for the senate against incumbent Scott Brown, R-MA. Considering she’s a member of the Democrat party in Massachusetts, she stands a good chance just because she’s breathing. Actually, Democrat party members can win senate seats even after they’ve assumed room temperature, as happened in Missouri a few years back. She also has the additional advantage of being–hold on to your hats–a Native American. Yes, indeedy. She’s a grand total of 1/32 Native American, which qualifies her for minority status.
Apparently, there has been family stories about a Native American (formally Indian) heritage in her family. Most families have stories like that, but only a far left liberal member of the Democrat party would list herself as a minority lawyer as she did. And as a good liberal, she denies it was to give herself a professional advantage. Yeah, right.
But it turns out she might have lucked out. Now they’re actually saying who the Native American in the family is, a great-great-great grandmother. That’s apparently enough to fill her DNA with a rich Native American heritage and establish she’s not a lying Democrat party member. She’s 31/32 something else, but those Native American genes must have strong magic to trump it all.
