4. And therein lies the issue with candidate Warren

I'm not sure if she "identifies" herself as Native American. It would seem she does not because of how she has filed forms in the past. What is coming out is a maybe and maybe not that at one time or another she has claimed Native American status, and rightly so, by her own beliefs. So, she has done nothing wrong no matter how much Brown cries about it. When confronted with a question on an application about your genealogy, one has every right to answer truthfully to the question. By all accounts she has done this. If the institutions use this information then what does that have to do with Warren? This issue has legs and I am sure the media will beat it to death and ignore Brown's record. Or just pass him off as moderate which he ain't.
