African-American qualifies with one drop of African blood.
You can't tell me Warren is 25% Native.
No way she's more than an eighth.

Upon reading several "fact check" articles, the best case scenario for Warren is 1/32 Native American.  Though she cannot verify that she is actually any percentage of Native American blood, those that support her seem to keep championing the point of "you can't prove she's not..."

Is that where we are right now?  Privileged people taking advantage of tools put in place to help the disadvantaged?  I mean, really?  In all of the "family lore" that she was told about growing up, just how much of an effort did her family ever make to connect with those Native American roots?  Did they ever take a vacation to tribal lands?  Did they ever attend a ceremonial Pow Wow?  Did they really even acknowledge that they had any Native ancestry, before they saw an advantage to admitting it?
