Does Elizabeth Warren Have Native American Roots?


No one’s really sure except for Harvard Law back in the 90’s, which touted Warren’s Native American heritage amid criticism that the school only employed a bunch of white men. But Warren hasn’t mentioned her Cherokee or Delaware tribe lineage all that much on the campaign trail. Last night, Warren’s strategist Kyle Sullivan rebuffed with the oral history defense: “Like most Americans, Elizabeth learned of her heritage through conversations with her grandparents, her parents, and her aunts and uncles.” [Herald]
