Another DNC mystery

Sep 05, 2012 16:42

What's up with Elizabeth Warren, and why are they showcasing her?  On the one hand, she's fighting to get a senate seat back in Massachussetts and she says all the things liberals like to hear.  On the other hand, she's the person whose on record with the message that got Obama in trouble: "You didn't build that."  Putting aside whether he was taken out of context when he said that, that is what everybody heard and it is dreadfully unpopular.

But even aside from that, her ethics are problematic.  She checked the Native American boxes to get preferential treatment, and then she stopped checking them once she became successful to avoid being known as an affirmative action hire.    And it turns out, she has NO Native American heritage/background/association.  It's very bad.  She won't talk to the Cherokee groups that have sought her out to clarify things.  She has lied about all of the above and then simply avoids answering the questions when she is called on it.  It's mystifying.
