Re: Why Must Democrats Tell Lie?
My liberal friends are going to laugh at me (and justifiably so) if I bring this cookbook recipe to them as proof that Warren lied about being an Indian or told some related lie about her heritage or ancestry. Have you found an actual lie she told yet?

Maybe you need new friends.

Those Warren-loving friends are not nearly as bad as the Trump-loving ones.

Yet you can’t find one? You guys do know what a “quote” is, right? I am looking for something that Warren said in her own words - not what others have opined about her. Have you actually read a quote that says that she is an Indian/Native American?

So let me get this straight, you have righteous indignation over russia buying advertising to muddle the 2016 election (still no evidence a vote was actually changed by russia) in which Trump won, but Warren, who has played her self as a descendant of Cherokee (whom the Cherokee tribe doesn't recognize, whose family struggled because her parents had to elope due to her in-laws bigotry, allegedly received no benefit from this "heritage?" I contend that if Trump benefited, in your mind, from russian interference in the 2016 election, then Warren has benefited from her claimed heritage in her elections especially the one against Scott Brown.

If racism can't be reversed and rightfully so, I don't think identity politics can be either. If you want to score points with identity politics, you have to understand that it can bite you in the rear if you can't back it up.

Did she bring up the fact she was Native American in her 2012 campaign or did Scott Brown?
Can you find a single quote where she has lied about her heritage? You guys have now had quite a few days to find something. Warren is a public figure - if she has said something, it shouldn’t be hard to find.

This whole thing was a failed Scott Brown attack strategy that he thought would turn bleeding heart liberals of Massachusetts against Warren.
Have you found any actual quotes yet?
Re: Why Must Democrats Tell Lie?
Harvard did NOT do anything! Someone in Harvard's HR didn't look at a brand new application from this Warren person, and say, Ya know, we're gonna change this application to read Native American. No, no need to inform Ms. Warren of this, it's just something we do. NOPE! She checked Native American herself in a BIG LIE!

Or, Harvard, wanting to show they are more diverse than they actually are, sought out information from their personnel. I don’t think any of us know what she told them. We only know that Harvard identified her as having such a heritage and Warren, by her own admission, was okay with it because she thought it would give her a chance to connect with other students that had Native American heritage. Hardly identity politicking given her role at the time as a professor.

Don't make yourself too dizzy with that spin there!
