Elizabeth Warren is a Woman of Principle

Janet_Miller · 2018-09-12T21:45:47.438Z

It’s changed a lot since those days, & no one seems to care about history.

Truly sad.

It’s good from a colony based on Puritan work ethic to one dominated by child like individuals who want something for nothing.

Those are types are the vast majority of voters here.

I’m not the woman’s biggest fan. But even I say the fuss about if she does or doesn’t have indigenous tribal heritage is silly.

She probably was told of her heritage as many of us are—by family. Must be a lot of families out there who are liars if that’s what it is when repeating stories that were told generation after generation.

Many indigenous Americans are racially mixed. Are they included in this so called native American quota? And if so, why wouldn’t she be included if she is qualified to teach?

That’s it? Where are all the libs to support the first woman President?

What woman is running for potus currently?

WuWei · 2018-09-12T23:21:46.823Z

Not true. She claimed it each year from 1986 to 1994. She moved to Harvard in 1995. She didn’t need it after she got the job at Harvard.

She IS taking money from the National Bow and Arrow Association

Are you sure? I heard it was the National Spear and Atlatl Association.

Do we need to just update that to POTUShontas?

Elizabeth Warren Says She Won’t Take NRA Money – Not That They’re Offering - NewBostonPost | NewBostonPost

“I’m running for re-election to U.S. Senate here in Massachusetts, and I pledge not to take a single penny from the National Rifle Association. The people of Massachusetts deserve to be represented by someone who will put their interests ahead of the NRA’s demands,”

Pocahontas for POTUS!

Notice she didn’t mention her affinity for tomahawks and arrows. She’s sneaky that way

WildRose · 2019-02-10T07:54:19.716Z

Pretty easy to make that pledge considering there’s not a snowballs chance in hell the NRA would send her a penny.

WildRose · 2019-02-10T07:58:04.978Z

Neither of her parents belonged to any tribe, the story is complete BS.

Her total share of “Indian blood” is 1/1024th that means at most each of her parents is 1/512th.

toreyj01:

Whats your point?

She stated that the reason gun control hasn’t happened is because the NRA has folks in Congress under control, and that she isn’t one of them nor will she ever be.

You’re right, she is a woman of principle. Is that all you were getting at? And why the dumb Pocahontas jab? Unless we get DNA testing to prove it, if she was told she was part Native American why is it so important to discredit what she was told with no proof to the contrary?

Seems petty to me.

There is proof to the contrary.
Her DNA test showed maybe one AmerIndian ancestor, 6 to 10 generations removed.
She has less Indian blood than the average American.

Most fake Indians are people of principle.
I remember how principled Ward Churchill was.

Except if La Raza donated to him he’d take it and tweet what an amazing organization they are.

Trump supporters (we know, you claim not to be) chirping about principles is cute.

I doubt the veracity of this statement. Perhaps a Pow-wow is in order.

Elizabeth Warren cannot beat Trump in the next election. The dem candidate with the best chance of beating Trump is Biden.

He projects a certain gravitas and calm after the past few years of crazy Trump. I think that “image” will resonate more strongly with the independent and floating voters.

However I have aways said Trump will be a two term president. Trump has incumbent history on his side and the economy is ticking along nicely right now.

What most of us on here forget is the vast majority of the electorate unlike posters on this forum do not care about politics, they do not delve into every story except for what passes by them in the newspaper and on social media. They vote more based on how they feel on the day than from any strong deep rooted political convictions.

BillBrown · 2019-06-05T10:53:49.782Z

I pretty much agree with this.
I don’t agree with you assessment of Biden. Biden is a poor primary candidate. He proved that both in 1988 and 2008.
In 1988 he was ran out of the primaries because of his blatant lies and plagiarism. Only a few days ago Biden was caught plagiarizing again. Gravitas is exactly what Biden does not have. He’s a walking gaffe machine. Trump may be worse, but Biden will never be able to face Trump. He won’t make it out of the primaries.

You are spot on with his plagiarism but you are forgetting that Trump has really lowered the bar as to what we expect from a President.

Only time will tell if his previous unsuccessful bids will hurt him. Will those voters who are to young to remember that even care?

Whoever the candidate ends up being if they try and take the high road in the debates they will get stomped on by Trump. They need to get as personal, nasty and vindictive as Trump is. Which leads me back to the fact Trump is lowering the bar. This is not how I want our elected representatives to act, on either side.
