The Blood Of Sequoyah Does Not Flow Through Elizabeth Warren's Veins

Now this man was a Cherokee who should rightly be honored by his people and any one who claims to be an American.

Sequoyah was born in 1770 near Knoxville, Tenn. to a woman named Wuteh and an unknown father. Much of his early life is debated, but accounts state that he never went to school or learned English. Sequoyah grew up to be a silversmith and became impressed by the white settlers' use of writing. He began creating a writing system for the Cherokee language around 1809. The Nation of Cherokees accepted his system in 1825, and the first Cherokee newspaper launched in 1828.

Now don't get me wrong, I am not a DNA techie or a genealogist, but Ms. Warren's claim to be of Native American heritage seems to be getting desperate. The DNA linkage she claims is not an actual chain of Cherokee nucleotides since such a thing does not exist; not for Cherokees nor for any other Native American tribe.

Breitbart News:

The Cherokee Nation is having none of it. In a blistering statement, Cherokee Nation Secretary of State Chuck Hoskin, Jr. writes, “A DNA test is useless to determine tribal citizenship. Current DNA tests do not even distinguish whether a person’s ancestors were indigenous to North or South America.”  

This is an important fact and especially true of Warren’s DNA test, which did not include any American Indian DNA whatsoever to compare her results with. Buried in the Boston Globe story is this bombshell: “To make up for the dearth of Native American DNA, Bustamante used samples from Mexico, Peru, and Colombia to stand in for Native American.”  

In other words, all Warren’s DNA test really proves is that she might be 1/64 to 1/1024 Mexican, Peruvian, or Colombian. What’s more, while some tribes are willing to accept 1/16 ancestry, they are not willing to do so through unreliable DNA tests. What they want to see is actual genealogy, and the truth is that Warren has no documentation to prove that her family has ever had an American Indian in her family.

The only thing Warren's DNA has to show is that there may be an illegal alien or two lurking in her ancestor's closet.
