Warren’s DNA Test Used “Mexico, Peru and Colombia” DNA as Native American

    So, not only does it not disprove Warren lied about her ancestry, the test itself did not use Native American DNA to test for Native American ancestry yet this lying professor claimed it anyway. Does this now invalidate the so called test? Will the media hold her accountable for this flawed methodology?


    The researcher who examined Sen. Elizabeth Warren’s (D-Mass.) DNA test used DNA samples from “Mexico, Peru and Colombia” to “stand in” for Native American DNA in North America, according to the Boston Globe.

    According to the newspaper:

    Detecting DNA for Native Americans is particularly tricky because there is an absence of Native American DNA available for comparison. This is in part because Native American leaders have asked tribal members not to participate in genetic databases.
    […]

    To make up for the dearth of Native American DNA, Bustamante used samples from Mexico, Peru, and Colombia to stand in for Native American. That’s because scientists believe that the groups Americans refer to as Native American came to this land via the Bering Strait about 12,000 years ago and settled in what’s now America but also migrated further south. His report explained that the use of reference populations whose genetic material has been fully sequenced was designed “for maximal accuracy.”

    It’s unclear how this methodology directly corroborates Warren’s claim of part Cherokee descent.

    Interestingly, the Boston Globe later issued this correction at the bottom of its report:

    Correction: Due to a math error, a story about Elizabeth Warren misstated the ancestry percentage of a potential 6th to 10th generation relative. The generational range based on the ancestor that the report identified suggests she’s between 1/64th and 1/1,024th Native American.

    In addition, there’s no evidence that Warren would be eligible to join one of the big three federally-recognized Cherokee tribes.

    More than half the country is more Native American than she and she still won't give it up and just admit it.

    Don't you know all the Democrat candidates for the mid-terms are just LOVING this announce by Warren and how it is actually backfiring on her and Democrats with their obsession with race and racial preferences!!!! :roflol:

    Well, maybe she can just claim she's Latino or something now. Or at least 1/64th or 1/1,024th or whatever.

    Am I missing something? Why is her ancestry in question or even relevant?

    So, she goes across the country to Stanford to have the test done. Why does that sound familiar? Does the fact Christine Ford was a professor there be of any concern?

    Once the Cherokees said they didn't want her Warren would have been smart not to mention it again.

    I’m far from a “lib” but thanks for your insightful response.
    It’s really refreshing to see someone put so much thought into a well rationed reply!

    Anyone else care to answer the question?

    Because she lied about it for years, then got called out for it. Now she is trying to claim she really is Native American when she has less American native Indian than most other white Americans.

    She was even listed as a minority at Harvard. She played up the lie for your years to gain support and present herself as something she is not.

    She also published a cook book, turns out she plagiarized a lot of the recipes, including a native American recipe passed down to her called Pow Wow Chow. Problem is, it was actually from a French Chef who she plagiarized. :)

    Uh, what?

    She wants to shed the Native American name that Trump calls her by proving that she has Native American ancestry?

    What?


    No, what will "do it" is for Trump to admit that he used a Native American name as an insult...

    Of course she plagiarized the recipes. If you are going to lie about your heritage whats a little fake recipes?

    Yeah it really hurt him in 2016 didn't it.

    And she has no native american heritage. You obviously didn't read the study. Shocking I know.

    Liberals are comfortable liars and most of what they do backfires. Karma.
