The headline is inaccurate. The test showed that she is at least 1/1024 Native American by ancestry, possibly as much as 1/64.
Anyway, she wants Trump to follow through on his promise.
Never mind the headline, your interpretation of the content of the article is inaccurate.
The article actually states;
"
The analysis of Warren’s DNA was done by Carlos D. Bustamante...He concluded that “the vast majority” of Warren’s ancestry is European, but he added that “the results strongly support the existence of an unadmixed Native American ancestor.”
So does "
strongly support" actually PROVE that what she says is true or not?
Look at it like this, perhaps this might help..... What if you read somewhere;
"
An analysis of DNA was done by the FBI and they concluded that the results strongly support the claim that Dr. Ballsey Ford is a fukin' liar."
Would "
strongly support" actually PROVE to you that she is in fact, a liar?
The article also tells us that her great-great-great-grandmother, O.C. Sarah Smith, "
identified as white in historical documents,", AND that, "
Smith would have had strong incentives to call herself white if possible.", did you read THAT part?
Tells me that, well, would ""
strongly support", the notion that lying about one's race when it might benefit them to do so is a centuries old family tradition, what do you think?
Not to mention your willingness to simply ignore where the article stated sh it like;
"
The inherent imprecision of the six-page DNA analysis..."
"If her great-great-great-grandmother was Native American,"
" the report includes the possibility that she’s just 1/512th (later "corrected to 1/1024th, but who is counting, right?)
Also, is it not odd that a Senator from Massachusetts would provide a sample of her DNA to a private lab in Georgia?
Why? No decent DNA labs in the northern or eastern US? "Doctor shopping" perhaps?
Then the data from that test was sent all the way to Bustamante and his team at Stanford for analysis.
Why? No decent DNA labs in the northern or eastern US? "Doctor shopping" perhaps?
"Warren didn’t use a commercial service,"
Why? No decent DNA labs in the northern or eastern US? "Doctor shopping" perhaps?
"
Bustamante is on the scientific advisory board for Ancestry, which provides commercial DNA tests. He’s also consulted on a project for 23andMe, another major DNA testing company."
Strong credentials for the good doctor.
So why do YOU think he didn't just refer her to one of those well respected commercial services? Wouldn't go back far or small enough? Too hard to manipulate? What?
Something doesn't pass the smell test, and is all too common, it is some dems/libs....
