Re: 2016 Election
You have to be the most idiotic and ill informed fool I have ever encountered. Educate yourself about Warren.
Warren started her academic career as a lecturer at Rutgers School of Law–Newark (1977–78). She moved to the University of Houston Law Center (1978–83), where she became Associate Dean for Academic Affairs in 1980, and obtained tenure in 1981. She taught at the University of Texas School of Law as visiting associate professor in 1981, and returned as a full professor two years later (staying 1983–87). In addition, she was a visiting professor at the University of Michigan (1985) and research associate at the Population Research Center of the University of Texas at Austin (1983–87).[34] Early in her career, Warren became a proponent of on-the-ground research based on studying how people actually respond to laws in the real world. Her work analyzing court records, and interviewing judges, lawyers, and debtors, established her as a rising star in the field of bankruptcy law.[35]
Warren joined the University of Pennsylvania Law School as a full professor in 1987 and obtained an endowed chair in 1990 (becoming William A Schnader Professor of Commercial Law). She taught for a year at Harvard Law School in 1992 as Robert Braucher Visiting Professor of Commercial Law. In 1995, Warren left Penn to become Leo Gottlieb Professor of Law at Harvard Law School.[34] As of 2011, she was the only tenured law professor at Harvard who attended law school at an American public university.[35] At Harvard, Warren became one of the most highly cited law professors in the United States. Although she had published in many fields, her expertise was in bankruptcy. In the field of bankruptcy and commercial law, only Douglas Baird of Chicago, Alan Schwartz of Yale, and Bob Scott of Columbia have citation rates comparable to that of Warren.[36] Warren's scholarship and public advocacy were the impetus behind the establishment of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau.[

Not unsurprising you don't deny she claimed to be native American - an out right lie of outrageous proportions, or that she's another multi millionaire Democrat that preaches equality from their ivory tower

Just for the sake of completion, snopes seems to have a mixed result for this one.

Amusing that the meme themadpooper posted here is the one that Snopes dissects.

Re: 2016 Election
Snopes would classify any article that has both factual and not-factual claims in it as 'mixed'. I was using their terminology.

Basically it says that she does live in a big expensive house and has spoken about her ancestry but she didn't use it to get a job based on minority status.

Facebook is a private company. It's very unclear they were "suppressing right wing stories" anyway, but surely they have the right to select whatever news stories they wish for their website?

Re: 2016 Election
Yeh, I know. Pretty clear that themadpooper's claim that "she told lies" is unsubstantiated as regards the value of her house and her application to teach at Harvard.

Re: 2016 Election
This from you who has not an original thought and posts drivel fed to your seemingly minimal intelect by right wing trolls...which in turn makes you one. After all...why research the facts when bullshit is what feeds your ill informed mind.
