Pocahontas On The Warpath: Trump Better Watch Out For His Scalp
http://paxonbothhouses.blogspot.com/2016/05/pocahantas-on-warpath-trump-better.html

Dear A

Donald is sticking with "Pocahontas" as derision. 

Warren should school him on what a complement it is. Aside from the saving Smith story she became a Christian, married John Rolfe, took the name Rebecca and had a son Thomas before she died at age 22. 

Her descendants include many Virginian notables, First Ladies Edith Wilson and Nancy Reagan among them. 

Warren should emphasize his deriding Nancy when he chooses this vehicle to belittle her - or she could thank him for the complement.

Elizabeth Warren's Native American Controversy
Wikipedia excerpt

In April 2012, the Boston Herald sparked a campaign controversy when it reported that from 1986 to 1995 Warren had listed herself as a minority in the Association of American Law Schools (AALS) directories.[68] Harvard Law School had publicized her minority status in response to criticisms about a lack of faculty diversity, but Warren said that she was unaware of this until she read about it in a newspaper during the 2012 election.[68][69][70] Scott Brown, her Republican opponent in the Senate race, speculated that she had fabricated Native American heritage to gain advantage in the job market.[71][72][73] Former colleagues and supervisors at universities where she had worked stated that Warren's ancestry played no role in her hiring.[69][70][73][74] Warren responded to the allegations, saying that she had self-identified as a minority in the directories in order to meet others with similar tribal roots.[75] Her brothers defended her, stating that they "grew up listening to our mother and grandmother and other relatives talk about our family's Cherokee and Delaware heritage".[76] In her 2014 autobiography, Warren described the allegations as untrue and hurtful.[77] The New England Historic Genealogical Society found a family newsletter that alluded to a marriage license application that listed Elizabeth Warren’s great-great-great grandmother as a Cherokee, but could not find the primary document and found no proof of her descent.[73][78][79] The Oklahoma Historical Society said that finding a definitive answer about Native American heritage can be difficult because of intermarriage and deliberate avoidance of registration.[80]
