I've got a problem with this:
Ramirez said anyone who claims in writing to be a Native American should have some sort of supporting documentation. “If you’re a member of a federally recognized tribe, then that means you would have a tribal enrollment number,” he said.
Well, bullcrap. There've been people who didn't go on the official tribal rolls for various reasons; does that mean they don't count? My mother's mother was full-blood Cherokee, but her father had a feud with a guy on the tribal council and basically told him to stuff his roll, so they're not on it. So were they not Amerind anymore because they don't have their papers?
Stuff your 'documentation', Ramirez. Not defending Warren for her game-playing at all, just annoyed by this noise.
