That's logically nonsense. To prove she benefited, you'd simply have to find one instance of benefit. To prove she hasn't benefited, you have to show that every instance of possible benefit was negative. US Senators are not anonymous unless they want to be. People would still have heard of her. barfo
It's ridiculous, isn't it. It came out of the deep South and was adopted by the North. We have been feeble minded.
This is a totally illogical and absurd statement. If you can't figure out why then I fear there's no hope in continuing this discussion.
No evidence? She publicly misrepresented herself as a minority for over a decade. How the hell are you people defending that? Even if she does have an ancestor who was Native American, it was such a tiny portion of her DNA that it does not make her a minority. How is this any different than someone who lies about serving in the military? What benefit do those people get? And yet, they do it. Clearly there was a reason for lying because she did it for a long time.
Actually it's not a statement. It's a request. Those are different things. But you seem to have some issues with telling the difference between questions and statements, as you have accused me of saying things that I have never said.
Ok - how about this From 1986 to 1995 Warren had listed herself as a racial minority in the Association of American Law Schools (AALS) Directory of Law Teachers. Harvard Law School had identified Warren as a "woman of color" in response to criticisms about a lack of faculty diversity. Being promoted as the only "woman of color" on the staff was a benefit. @santeesioux linked an article that talked about her as being the first "woman of color" hired by Harvard in the Fordham Law Review. She has gained notoriety because of her exaggeration.
Yes, but it's hard to see what difference it makes. I mean, who pores over the AALS directory looking for Native American law professors? That's a benefit to Harvard, not her. Unless you can show that they only kept her on so that they'd have a woman of color on staff. Charles Manson gained notoriety because of the Tate-LaBianca murders. Not sure he benefited, though. But I'm just picking on your word choice there. It is remotely possible that she gained something meaningful from being mentioned in the Fordham Law Review, which I'm sure we all read cover to cover every fortnight (or whatever the schedule is). But Harvard professors are pretty high profile in the academic world, they don't really need shoutouts from Nth tier law reviews. How long are we going to debate this? I've got work to do tonight, and Warren is far from my favorite politician. I'd prefer she didn't run. Does it really matter if once upon a time, she thought of herself as Native when in fact she was only a small part Native? Isn't this "issue" about a million times less important than Obama's birth certificate or Hillary's emails or Trump's tax returns? Imagine if it came out that Trump had claimed to be something other than what he is, genealogically, back in the 80's? Would anyone care? Here's the answer: he did, and no one cared. In The Art of the Deal, he wrote that his father's family was Swedish. They aren't, they are German, but the family has lied about it for generations. barfo
Who gives a shit. I just want to see trump pony up the million dollars and back up his lying words. Like usual, trump makes a promise and will likely renege.
In Trump world: Not credible - climate scientists, DNA testing, women, U.S. intelligence agencies, Secretary of Defense Credible - Roy Moore, Vladimir Putin, Brett Kavanaugh, Kim Jong Un, Saudi monarchy
No. Even now it’s the only thing most people know about her. She’s never done anything of note, just another swamprat on the dole.
