Really, people are going to hang her on this issue? Most people have some family lore that isn't 100% verified -- oh, really, your great grandfather was hero in the civil war? maybe, maybe not.
There isn't a pattern of deceit on her part, this "debacle" wasn't a sin of great consequence, all the while it is pushed over and over by someone whose entire life is built on manufacturing falsehoods. "Both sides do it" doesn't apply here. It is like saying I can't be critical of a murderer because I too broke the law by speeding.
- rpmisms 7y agoShe got into Harvard claiming "Native American" as her only race. If she were a conservative, she would have been crucified by now. Just because she's on the "good" side doesn't mean she gets a free pass, just like Joy Behar shouldn't get a pass for blackface. Oh no, I said something inconvenient for someone's ideology.

- politil_throw93 7y agoWhat I don't understand is - does she still think she's Native American? If not, what's changed since she filled that form in? It's not her DNA percentage result that has changed her mind, as she saw that as proof. I don't get what her thinking is, and I wouldn't mind her just explaining it.
