Warren responded;<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>Rather than address that question specifically, Warren told a story about how her mother and father, born and raised in Oklahoma, met as teenagers and fell head-over-heels in love. Her father\u2019s family was bitterly opposed to their relationship, she said, because her mother was part Native American, but the couple eloped and persevered.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThat\u2019s the story that my brothers and I all learned from our Mom and our Dad, from our grandparents and all of our aunts and uncles. It\u2019s a part of me, and nobody is going to take that part of me away \u2014 not ever,\u201d Warren said.<\/p>\n<p>After hearing this story, Todd returned to his initial concern: Why not do genealogical research or take a DNA test to find out her actual heritage? What\u2019s wrong with knowing whether her family\u2019s story was the truth?<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI do know. I know who I am. And never used it for anything, never got any benefit out of it anywhere,\u201d she said.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>My follow up question would have been something about &#8220;how can they take anything from you?&#8221; You know, if a DNA test would prove her heritage. Unless, of course, she knows what the results would actually be &#8211; that she&#8217;s 100% full of crap. European crap. No one can take from her something she never had.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>On NBC&#8217;s Meet the Press yesterday, according to Yahoo News, Chuck Todd asked Elizabeth &#8220;Pocahontas&#8221; Warren &hellip; <a title=\"Lizzie Warren: nobody is going to take that part of me away\" class=\"hm-read-more\" href=\"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/?p=78205\"><span class=\"screen-reader-text\">Lizzie Warren: nobody is going to take that part of me away<\/span>Read more<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":76089,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[177],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-78205","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-dumbass-bullshit"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/78205","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=78205"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/78205\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/76089"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=78205"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=78205"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=78205"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
