One remote Indian ancestor does not make a white woman an Indian

Lately we have heard that modern tribes generally subscribe to a cultural, tribal connections view of what it is to be an Indian, and she fails that test, too.

So now this.

RNC asks Texas to punish Sen. Elizabeth Warren for Indian heritage claim

They much prefer such headlines about her than headlines focusing on her agenda.

And they will have them!

The Republican National Committee asked the Texas state Bar to take disciplinary action against Sen. Elizabeth Warren after reports that she claimed Native American heritage on her law license.

Ms. Warren, Massachusetts Democrat, now says she is not Native American, but The Washington Post reported that when she applied for the bar in 1986 she listed herself as “American Indian.”

The RNC says that puts her in violation of the bar’s requirement to show good moral character.

“It has now been thirty-three (33) years since she made this representation to the Texas Bar and has never made an attempt to correct her registration card. 

Therefore it is clear that Attorney Warren lacked the ‘Good Moral Character’ required for admission to the Texas Bar and should be disciplined for her three (3) decades of untruthfulness,” RNC Chair Ronna McDaniel wrote.

Ms. Warren is listed as inactive in the Texas bar.
