But according to her, she is only 1/32nd Native American.
Actually, if you take the published results as wholly accurate, that is a BEST CASE guesstimate. The study said that she could be as little as 1/1024th% Non-White. Keep in mind, the study DID NOT conclude the vestige was NATIVE AMERICAN.
So right now, all Warren has given us is that she is likely 99.999% white northern European and the other 0.001% Mexican/Colombian/Peruvian. Even if we make the flying leap that Mexican/Colombian/Peruvian DNA is a good enough stand-in for American Indian, she still would need SIXTY-FOUR TIMES more of the DNA to meet the MINIMUM requirements to meet official recognition as Native American by the Cherokee tribe.
Warren saying she's American Indian is akin to Edie Brickell saying she's been to the Moon because she shot a few rubber bands at it.
