Biden was a bad enough dude to menace Corn Pop and play football but dodged the draft by claiming asthma, surely that means he feels kinship for everyone who didn't want to die in an imperial war, right?

I think what might have happened is that Elizabeth Warren grew up thinking she was part Native American, cause she thought she was cause that’s what her family told her her entire life.

Then she took a DNA test for the dumbest possible reason and it turned out to be not true. So she coulda just said “ok well my idiot parents didn’t have 23 and me 50 years ago so we all thought we were Cherokee but I guess we aren’t, my bad”

but that's their point, that before her dumbass test she had been claiming it for decades with completely zero connection to any tribe whatsoever. that's gross as hell

the warrens were not attending tribal meetings, living on a rez, or doing really anything whatsoever to even imply that they're at all native beyond "being born in oklahoma" and certainly didn't have to rise above discrimination for any of that so-called ancestry her republican rear end took advantage of

i wonder if she could not, because she's supposed to be an intelligent and sympathetic member of the academy, and you'd have to be either a completely unaware ignoramus or a cynical snake to have repeated your parents story, even in the 90s

you missed the part where Harvard bragged about her being their first WOC professor and Warren listing herself as a minority in professional listings lol

quote:

https://www.politico.com/blogs/burns-haberman/2012/05/fordham-piece-called-warren-harvard-laws-first-woman-of-color-123526

"There are few women of color who hold important positions in the academy, Fortune 500 companies, or other prominent fields or industries," the piece says. "This is not inconsequential. Diversifying these arenas, in part by adding qualified women of color to their ranks, remains important for many reaons. For one, there are scant women of color as role models. In my three years at Stanford Law School, there were no professors who were women of color. Harvard Law School hired its first woman of color, Elizabeth Warren, in 1995."
...
But the Fordham piece takes the description of Warren by Harvard Law beyond the boundaries of the Massachusetts school. Warren had described herself as a minority on a law professors' listing for several years, ending in 1995. She has said she wanted to meet people like herself, but stopped when she realized that's not what the listing was for.

So the average debt is about 40k, sure this makes a dent but they’ve turned off payments for almost two years now and they think they can just turn payments back on after tossing this out? With record low savings and soaring inflation? How do they honestly think this is going to go? The American people will line up to vote for them after they do the smallest *something* they can possibly do?

they want to lose and use whining from powerlessness to fundraise but are at least societally aware enough to not want to be called liars on this specific promise so they are going to do something in a way that technically qualifies as doing something while helping as few people as possible
