If Elizabeth Warren grew up in Oklahoma she more or less did grow up in a Native American culture. Oklahoma has always had a major Indian presence and people who live there are most likely around Indian culture on a regular basis depending on where they live. There is not really much separation there between "Indian culture" and society in general in a large portion of Oklahoma, especially for the tribes like the Cherokee who don't live on a reservation. They are very much integrated within the established culture.
Although now that I've looked up more info, seems like she's from Oklahoma City, which I *believe* has much less of an Indian presence than the eastern half of the state. But still, you can't really be in Oklahoma and not have some kind of exposure to Indian culture, unless you are really trying to avoid it.
However, yeah, if she has no ancestor on the Dawes roll it does seem like she probably may not be Cherokee, or at least she may not be able to prove it...I will say though that during the turn of the century I don't think someone would put that they were Cherokee on any kind of legal document unless they really were, it is not like today, it was not considered good to be Indian.
I won't get into the whole problem with non-Indians saying who has the right to call themselves Indian.

That is not sufficient to make him a real Crow.

That does sound like an invitation for a Photoshop project.
Anyone?
There you go

That's a good one--very quick effort.
I had in mind the American crow: looks like this
Can you do one with the bird?

Is the second one Kaylani Lei? The one next to her is obviously Miss Paris Hilton.
Who are the others?
The tanerexic Mom is darker than any of them!

Who are the others?
Um, yes
That's her. But except for Kaylani and Paris, I have no idea who they are. When I put this together, I simply googled for photos with the same skin tone (none of the images is photoshopped btw). In case of Kaylani, I searched by name since I've, um, seen a lot of her work and knew that she was a good match. Paris came up when I searched for "strong tan".I don't mean to be rude but all of those pictures have been photoshopped, hence why they all have the same shade of grey background.
Just by tweaking the white balance in your camera you can make black look like white, your camera does it automatically everytime you take a picture so that it can adjust to different light temperatures.
If you put all of those people in the same room, at the same time and took one photo with all of them in you would see big differences in skin tone.
Nice try, but not real in way...

Not me apparently.
I have to wonder what her views on affirmative action and the like are, if she is in support then what she did shows a high level of hypocrisy and lack of character. This is after she lied and said she wasn't wealthy or part of the '1%', when reality she's worth $14.5 and lives in a $5 million dollar house. She seems like the poster child of a 'limousine liberal'.
