I never knew Elizabeth Warren was American Indian? I know she’s a moron but why give her so much credit by associating her with a well known historical figure?

Because making fun of Native Americans never gets old, and never loses votes you weren’t planning to get anyway. Besides, even your hypothetical non-racist observer won’t necessarily know that there’s a long recurring theme of “prove you’re a real Indian” in Native American history, so they won’t see this as part of a larger problem, just a one-off for Warren. Documenting your Nativeness must be as simple as a trip to the DMV, right? *sigh*

Luckily for her, Warren pretty much has a lock on Sanders supporters due to their policy similarities.

EDIT: Whoops, forgot about the HA Goodman faction. But they were never for Sanders in the first place, so they’re certain to hate Warren.
