    Her ethnicity doesn’t matter but she’s white and probably like 2 percent native. I guarantee I have some form of African in me even if it’s the slightest and it would be like me running around saying look guys I’m black!

    You are welcome to your opinion about the topic, not about the forum members however in my view....and if you have an opinion try to post it less than 50 times in repetition for a change...how many times can a person say the same thing?

    I just didn’t know this many people really loved Elizabeth warren, it’s quite fascinating.

    The "you're wrong" and the lol emoji was a total joke, dude. Whenever two people disagree on something, obviously both think they're right. I was just laughing at that, not at you.

    I'm curious at where the inconsistency in my Chappelle comments is though. I'd love for you to expound on that. PM would be fine if you'd like to avoid others' commentary on your opinion.

    River, if you read a bit more carefully, it’s not repetitive but I appreciate your words, really just beautiful.

    Feel free to do that if you like. I don't mind.

    Suggest you do it in a Schwarzenegger voice: "I'll be black..."

    So she may have or may not have lied about her heritage.
    That does not give an adult permission to an mock another person's heritage.
    Grow up. Act your age. Set an example.
    Don't lower yourself to her level.

    Instead the first thing you say after @barfo posts a link is.
    'tldr Is she Pocahontas or not'.

    Childish.
    You said a year or so ago that you'd strive to post better.
    Instead you pull the same bullshit you continually say you hate.
    Act how you want others to act.

    I don't know that much about her...I'm guessing you don't either. She is a progressive though which seems to bother you more than anything else.

    Depends. Is it good progressive? Or you have to call people by their pronouns progressive?

    But that would be dumb and pretty insulting to people who are majority African I believe at least.

    For my part, I think she's well-suited to be senator from MA, and she's done some good things there (CFPB as a prime example).
    I'm not enthusiastic about her running for president, however. Maybe she can convince me and enough others, not sure.

    Yeah i do because I’m aware my posts aren’t insulting to any race but once again you misunderstand that constantly because you’re trying so hard to find a way to spin what I say negatively when in fact none of it s negative at all. It’s just my take on what is racist to me and the overall meaning

    I wasn’t talking about her politics, I have no clue what they are. I’m more so referring to people coming to her aid as if she’s 100 percent native and obviously looking the part

    Here's a news flash ….not all native americans look alike..nor do people from any ethnic background....my maternal grandmother is half Lakota Sioux, half French Canadian....I have blue eyes and blonde hair...stereotyping people because of appearance is ridiculous.

    If an "all white" man is married to an "all native American" woman, should he not be offended if he hears a disparaging remark about his wife's race?
