WestVirginiaRebel Posted June 27, 2016 Share Posted June 27, 2016 Washington Post: As Donald Trump continues to call Elizabeth Warren "Pocahontas" for claiming Native American heritage, former Massachusetts senator Scott Brown -- who lost to her in 2012 -- is defending that line of attack. "As you know, she's not Native American," Brown, an early Trump endorser, told reporters on a conference call organized by the Republican National Committee. "She's not 1/32 Cherokee." In the 2012 race, Brown tried and, for a short time, succeeded in making a campaign issue out of Warren's claim of Native American ancestry and whether it helped her win academic positions because of affirmative action. Brown allies in talk radio called her "Fauxcahontas," and to this day, photoshopped images of Warren with a feather headdress follow her around the Internet. ________ On the warpath against the fake Indian.
