Elizabeth Warren in deeper trouble

Did he? Sounded like locker room talk between guys to me.

I find it rather hypocritical that you can judge him for being vulgar but have no problem repeating it as though you escape sounding vulgar yourself when doing so.

How many people exploit their fame for personal gain? How many people use their positions in life for personal gain? It is more common to do so than uncommon.

Yet, how many lilly white women claim to be Native American on applications that may give them an advantage over a run of the mill white person?

Trump doesn’t hide his warts. Warren was a sneak and purposely exploited minority status for potential gain. That tells me she needed an edge because she didn’t think she had what it takes. So to get there she would lie and decieve.

But, hey. Nothing new with politicians, right? God forbid one of us bolsheviks try the same thing.

Yeah. That’s why Universities and employers put a line on their applications for race … so they can single out minorities for discrimination. :roll_eyes:

Elizabeth Warren certainly thought so.

They shouldn’t have any advantages. May the best man/woman win regardless of their skin color. Certainly, you can agree to that.

These days, being able to pass for white and be a bonafide minority on applications is the best of both worlds. :wink:

Used to be that light-skinned blacks looked down on dark-skinned blacks. I don’t know if that is still the case, but it would not surprise me if it is.

You’re right, I meant to quote him

Or, they believe that because minorities have more rights and benefits, it gives them the edge they need to bump themselves to the front of the line.

If Warren had truly believed she was part American Indian she would have used her position to help them and be an advocate.

Had she done that, rather than shun them, I would have believed that SHE believed she was part American Indian. I could have absolutely forgiven her checking that off on her applications.

But, she treated them like dirt on the bottom of her shoe. That tells me she flat out lied and exploited for personal gain.

Then why is race on the form?

Have you ever been in the position to hire someone for a large business? Minority status is absolutely an advantage. It is exactly on par with veteran status.

Honestly, the whole thing is so stupid and juvenile.

Who cares that you dressed up like Michael Jackson or had blackface for Halloween in 1984 or whatever year decades ago. Times were different then.

Who are you today and who have you helped because of your position? The democrats really need to get over themselves and lighten up.

She’d fold like a cheap card table if she had to shoulder the burden of being President.

The Secret Service would probably have to drag her out from underneath her bed every morning.

I’m too lazy to look it up but wasn’t there a big deal over the fact that firemen and policemen who scored higher on tests were being passed over for minorities due to affirmative action?

No because you don’t know this to be true. You don’t know that they hire less than qualified people. Google is one of the top companies on the world and also the most diverse. Do you think they are forced to hire less than qualified minorities? How do you know they don’t hire less than qualified white people, because their white?

there are plenty of stories DMK, too many to mention, I remember reading this story about a black man in Canada who is a conservatives and did it the right way, he complained about the government lowering standards to for lawyers in Ontario to become lawyers because they wanted more black lawyers, even some lawyers who failed the bar exam.

He mentioned going to lawyers convention and people looking at him wondering if he was one of those, meanwhile he makes sure he has degree in full sight when anyone visits his office so they know he wasn’t one of them

poor bastard, the guy does it the right way and now has to be lumped with a bunch of losers who couldn’t get in the right way and had to cheat and get help.

Over white people? Not at all. It is an advantage to the minority but not necessarily at the detriment of white people

Google is a bad example, as they are a specialized company their people don’t earn “minimum wage” or low wages, a google programmer earns 6 figures, they hire the best people PERIOD, they arent worried about Diversity.

So try again Amigo

It is sad when you are seriously at the top of your game, fully qualified and get sucked down into the muck.

It is the same as a woman who has worked her tail off and people can only justify her success by saying she must have “slept” her way to the top.

Then why did “white privilege Warren” claim minority status on her application?

Yep I am now. For a fortune 50 company. We had a requirement to interview a woman or a minority for every position IF THEY PASSED the TA phone screen.

However we had zero requirement to hire a minority or woman if they didn’t meet the qualifications after being interviewed. I never hired a person that was unqualified just because they were a woman or black. I work in technology so the pool is already small for minorities.

It’s an advantage for the minorities or veterans but not against white people.

Toby? Is that you?
