    For eight years I had to listen to CNN's Wolf Blitzer reminding everyone that Barack Obama was America's first black President.

    I don't think I can handle CNN reminding us every day that Elizabeth Warren is Americas first Native American President.

    I can, that would be hilarious.

    Please, Democrats - nominate Liz Warren.

    She can call her losing campaign "The Trail of Tears."

    Nah, I think Trump and many other people beat her to that distinction since she is well below the average American in the amount of indian genetics we have in our DNA.

    I heard the same from Blitzer who has become a very unlikeable little man. That always bothered me because obama was half white. Which half of obama did Blitzer believe sat in the oval office?

    I really hope that that lying weasel works her ass off, campaigns day and night in all 50 states and in her biggest campaign stop in Lilliput highschool gym, Michelle Obama walks onto the courtyard and the entire crowd erupts and chants "We want Michelle, not a fake Indian"

    I really hope that her run to be be Democratic Party candidate is unsuccessful. IMO the Clinton/Pelosi/Warren/Sanders/Biden years should have passed and the party should instead look to the future.

    That said, Warren can serve two useful purposes:
    • She can provide support and advice to a younger candidate if they are successful
    • She can be a lightning rod for the right-wing invective.

    While Senator Warren does have her political downsides she is probably the best compromise between the Establishment and Progressive wings of the Dem party.

    She does know how to address the concerns of a range of voters in order to obtain their support and she does have, by my estimate, the primary Delegates on her side.

    Not saying that she will win the Dem primary right now she is the front runner IMO.

    Oh, so the welfare queens are Trump supporters? I always hear from the left that if the GOP are elected, all the welfare will be taken away and you will die. If those who live off welfare are Trump supporters, why is it the left are the ones who keep push "basic income" for everyone?

    Anyways, Warren has now laid claim that ridicule of her less than average Native DNA results is akin to the Birthers of Obama.

    When she did the staged "I think I'll have a beer" thingy to look like just a common folk blue collar gal she looked totally ingenuous . When you have to stage you generousness it always comes off as disingenuous and says a lot about what she thinks of the average person out there that she thinks we would fall for it.

    Why are the Democrats even trying? They've proven incapable of governing, and their candidates don't have the ideas or the platform to be our commander. Try for 2024.

    I must have been mistaken. I thought anyone born in the US to US citizens was a native. Am I wrong?

    They’re actually fine at governing, but not very good at getting elected. Democrats need a reason to vote and Warren isn’t it, even if she is qualified. The only winning ticket for the Dems starts with Beto.

    I don't know, the left keeps changing the meaning and definition of words more that they change their underwear to further their insane and dangerous leftist political agenda.

    This is the oldest Webster's (American) dictionary that is available on the internet.

    It's a must when reading the Constitution knowing what were the meaning and definition of the words at the time when the Constitution war written. -> http://webstersdictionary1828.com/

    Warren just might have the shortest attempt at a Campaign in US History.

    After yesterday and it coming out that she filled out documents as a Native American Indian. Already leftist pundits are saying she is toast.

    Lets just call it 'youthful stupidity' (sarcasm), file it with the politicos who thought blackface was a fun thing to do, and flush the toilet.

    Believe it or not but we are on the same page here.

    There comes a point where things can go too far and if someone is contrite and apologizes for their past behavior, as long as no one was harmed, then let's chalk it up to inexperience and stupidity. I made more than enough of my own that it would be hypocritical of me to condemn others.

    No, I did not wear blackface or a hood or pretend to be a native American but I am not running for political office so it is irrelevant.

    We are human and we screw up. As long as we learn from our mistakes and are willing to make amends if needs be then let's move on.
