Sen Elizabeth Warren has taken a DNA test. The results, according to the MSM, quoting a Stanford professor, shows she is Native American. The quote, “the results strongly support the existence of an unadmixed Native American ancestor.”
But. Wait.
There is a dearth of Cherokee DNA to compare Warren's results to, so researchers widened their pool of DNA to include Mexico, Peru, and Colombia to stand in for Native American.
The test results show that she has a possibility of being, at most 1/64 native American Indian, and at the least, 1/1,024 native American Indian (or Mexican, or Peruvian, or Columbian...) Expressed as a percentage those numbers are 1.56% and 0.097%, respectively.

So, this is the new standard for leftist proof. Elizabeth Warren has between a 0.097% and 1.56% chance of having Native American (or Mexican, or Peruvian, or Columbian) ancestory and that is described as "strong support" for believing her story.
Let that soak in. Strong support = a 1.56% chance.
I don't know the criteria for qualifying as a minority, but if your best odds are 1.56%, I'd say you're probably white in heritage, not native American Indian.
