Obama also a Fauxcahontas? Like Elizabeth Warren, he claims Cherokee heritage; Update: Obama Indian Names hashtag takes off

Like Elizabeth “Lie-awatha” Warren, President Obama is also claiming Cherokee heritage without proof.

From Breitbart.com:

President Barack Obama and Massachusetts Democratic Senate candidate Elizabeth Warren have more in common than just their liberal political ideology, Harvard Law pedigree, and Democratic Party affiliation. Both claim Cherokee ancestry, and neither can prove it.
Ms. Warren’s claims are current and well known, but President Obama’s claims were made back in 1995, when his memoir, Dreams from My Father, was published. On pages 12 and 13 of the 2004 paperback edition, the President unequivocally asserts his Cherokee ancestry.

Will it be discovered that he plagiarized “pow wow chow” recipes as well?

We smell another affirmative action, equal opportunity mocking  hashtag game!

And so it begins. Have at it, Twitter.

To paraphrase Christine O’Donnell: He’s not a witch, he’s Sioux.

Update: #ObamaIndianNames takes off.
