The Stupid, It Hurts -- Sen Warren's New Challenger

Elizabeth Warren said her parents told her about her heritage when she was a kid. She had no reason to distrust them. By the way, didn't Scott Brown run for re-election on the "look at her, she doesn't even look like an Indian" platform, and lose?

“These are my family stories. This is what my brothers and I were told by my mom and my dad, my mammaw and my pappaw. This is our lives. And I’m very proud of it.”

No, she didn't 'immigrate into Harvard illegally,' she was hired as a visiting professor at Harvard Law in 1992, and later hired as a faculty member.

She taught for a year at Harvard Law School in 1992 as Robert Braucher Visiting Professor of Commercial Law. In 1995, Warren left Penn to become Leo Gottlieb Professor of Law at Harvard Law School. As of 2011, she was the only tenured law professor at Harvard who had attended law school at an American public university. Warren was a highly influential law professor. Although she published in many fields, her expertise was in bankruptcy and commercial law. In that field, only Bob Scott of Columbia and Alan Schwartz of Yale were cited more often than Warren

The head of the hiring committee was Charles E. Fried, who previously worked in the Reagan Administration as Solicitor General -- the president's council at the Supreme Court. Fried said it is false that race was a consideration in the decision to hire Warren at Harvard Law School; "any suggestion she enjoyed an affirmative action benefit is “complete nonsense.” He said she was recruited because of her work in bankruptcy and commercial law."

US senators aren't imported (except Ted Cruz) and exported. They are elected or appointed.

If Trump's rhetoric around race, religion and nationality, such as Mexicans, Muslims, and people of color, is in the service of the alt-right agenda, a white nationalism, does it surprise you V.A. Shiva (left) embraces this right-wing agenda?

Sen Warren is dope, not a dope. She proposed and built the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau which has returned $13 billion in fraud to customers.

Her revelation of Wells Fargo fraudulent business practices instigated Wells Fargo investigations at DOJ and SEC, and the resignation of the CEO.

Just last week in a banking committee hearing she exposed the fact that Trump and Treasury Secretary Manchin's 'support' for a 21st First Century Glass-Stiegal Act, which is her bill, is a lie; they do not, notwithstanding that Trump campaigned on it and that Manchin, under oath, during his senate hearing said he supported it only to say now he does not.

'Fake Indian' is the same delegitimization play Republicans ran on Obama for 8 years in more than one respect. Obama, it was was alleged, was an illegitimate President because he was born in Africa. He was a secret Muslim. He was secretly gay. Warren, it is alleged, is a fake Indian, a fake law professor and an illegitimate US Senator.

But why if Scott Brown ran on this message and loss, would anyone run on it again?
