If elected Sanders promises.

free healthcare for all

free college

food stamp increase

social security increase for the disabled and senior citizens

Sounds good, but to do all that you gotta redistribute just about all the wealth from wall street and crush capitalism.

If she's going to run, best get this out of the way now. Releasing the DNA results nulifies Trump's Birther 2.0 conspiracy and allows Warren to keep Trump on the defensive when she inevitably asks him for his tax returns.

Shes right, but this was a zero-gain proposition for her. It was a big mistake to engage him. If she runs, Trump will beat her by yelling POCAHANTAS alone.

Regardless of policy, just being realistic, they need to run Bernie or Kamala or someone who wont try to engage Trump in a no u contest. Dems need to come off as the adult in the room option to win.

A better tactic for her here wouldve been to ignore the DNA test challenge and just release the part that says look, I have a little Native American ancestry but obviously Im white, and I have never once used this as leverage and heres proof

Thats an effective quash to Trumps argument

Throwing in No, see, I really am 1/100000 Indian, you owe me a million bucks!!! weakens the whole thing and extends the joke

Stop acting like Warren was the loser here for not putting up with his bullshit.

You idiots letting Trump get away with his bullshit is how he wins in 2020.

Actually, she owned herself by engaging with a bottom-of-the-barrel right-wing jibe and doing so insensitively enough to piss off the Cherokee. She was already doing the smart thing before: ignoring this idiocy. Now, she looks like an idiot and no one's mind is going to be changed by Trump welching on a pledge, because everyone either already knows he's a lying sack of garbage or has convinced themselves otherwise.

Instead of ignoring the idiot (which doesn't work), she chose to do the DNA test because Trump was dumb enough to put a bet on it. Now that it's a proven fact that she has NA DNA, Trump can either donate $1 million to the National Indigenous Women's Resource Center (which is good PR), or renege on yet another promise (bad PR). He obviously won't, so it's up to the people to decide whether they're okay with Trump talking shit and not backing it up and vote him and other establishment Republicans out, or they're okay with their president being an unscrupulous moron. Either way, a bunch of people, myself included, probably just found out about the NIWRC, which helps them out.

According to Pocahontas herself:
Bottom line: My heritage played no role in my hiring ever. The @BostonGlobe reviewed all the evidence. Their verdict? "At every step of her remarkable rise in the legal profession, the people responsible for hiring her saw her as a white woman."




Except for that whole statement about Harvard hiring their first woman of color bit...

She can deny it all she wants but they didnt pull her not being white out of their ass in mid 90s.

Also anyone thinking she is actually owned a million dollars only gets their news from cherry picked clips. Watch the whole video...
