To be clear. Are you saying she was able to practice law because she put Indian on that document?
I'm not a Democrat or a Republican and I don't root for either side as I don't think our current political systems serves the people.
I have no idea what SFGbob meant but it's impossible to know if it's helped her unless we go back and talk with every admissions board/human resources department that has ever considered her credentials for admittance/a job offer.
I know this... it definitely didn't hurt her. [/b]
In my opinion, hypocrisy is a particularly damning character flaw and I can't help but think that if it had come out that Trump or Romney or some other Republican was in the same situation as Warren that the mob would be calling for their head and attempting the ruin their life/career. However, since Warren is on their "team" she is somehow skating by without the same repercussions that a Republican would be facing.
Intent matters and I have no idea if Warren was just misinformed or consciously misleading people by claiming she was a Native American. If she was knowingly misrepresenting herself than she should face the same mob that Trump would face for the same infraction.
I get that the Tug doesn't do nuance but at least I tried...
