    Hate her? No the question was "do you have any thought about her being President?" The answer is No, but nothing in that speaks Hate.

    Literally Cherokee, that's the quickest way to find out someone's full of shit.

    I think you are correct sir but we must remember, recognizing someone is full of shit is not Hate. It is simple observing the facts.

    When I had my DNA tested it turns out that I'm 1/64th Native American on my mom's side. It's funny because she doesn't know of any Native ancestry in her family. She thinks maybe it's from a great grandfather who was French Canadian.

    It's one thing to say in passing something like, "I'm told I have indian ancestry" vs. claiming to be indian and getting govt. provided benefits because of it.

    So to sum up:
    Calling yourself an Indian based on hearsay 20 years ago: big issue.
    Having the police called on you last year for stalking: not an issue.

    regardless of the facts about the Native American issue, I am telling you that the majority of the public will see ongoing attacks on this subject as petty and unsubstantiated, and will actually work against the accuser. Barring genetic testing proving she lied or told the truth, this issue will only embolden those on the fringes of the right like they were with the Birther movement and Obama. Attack attack attack and never on substance, it makes on look hateful and full of vitriol and bitterness. It makes attacks look personal and mean verses policy driven and pertinent. This issue wouldn't bother me one bit if I were Warren.

    Ha! Now I can believe it won't bother you. Sort of like the man with a poor olfactory function, can't tell he has dog shit on his shoe.

    I think it will bother Republican and won't bother Democrats.

    I think Independents will think along the lines you are saying . . . although both parties are so good about raising these issues without looking like they are the ones raising it, it will be more of a non-issue than a backlash.

    I don't think it's that big an issue. But I wouldn't say she's honest, either.

    Speaking of cutting in line ahead of Indians, would you like to use this opportune moment to announce your relinquishment of any land you own?

    Will you be speaking out for Indian causes after this?

    You probably remember it wrong. So your sperm-problem doctor found that 1 of your 64 conquests wasn't a Spanish noblewoman. Hey, it's not so bad.
