Good that not all were offended. I guess that means it's not a slur.
Case closed guys.

Descendant Of Pocahontas Not Offended By Trump
It turns out that an actual descendant of Pocahontas does not take any offense to President Donald Trump jokingly referring to Elizabeth Warren as “Pocahontas.”
In a September interview with Sky News, Debbie “White Dove” Porreco said that Trump once asked her if it offended her that he used the name “Pocahontas” to refer to the Democratic senator.
“I know that he uses ‘Pocahontas’ sometimes with Elizabeth Warren,” Porreco explained. “He said, ‘well does that offend you when I use that?’ And I told him no, it doesn’t offend me.”
“If Pocahontas were alive today, she would be very proud of President Trump,” Porreco said. “Just like Pocahontas was a heroine, Donald Trump is going to be our hero.”
The media and Sen. Warren, who has very dubious claims of a Native American ancestry, have called Trump’s use of Pocahontas a “slur.” (RELATED: Reminder: Elizabeth Warren Lied About Being Cherokee)
Sky News contrasted Porreco’s comments with those of Irene Bedard, who voiced Pocahontas in the cartoon Disney movie.
“Do I think Pocahontas would be a fan of Trump? Oh no,” Bedard said. “Misogyny and bullying and name-calling at its finest. It is not intelligent discourse.”
Porreco, who was the model for Disney’s Pocahontas character, was recently profiled in an article in Palm Beach Daily News. The piece explained that Porreco grew up poor on a reservation before attending college and working as a flight attendant.
“Sometimes when I’m dining at Mar-a-Lago, I think to myself, ‘You’ve come a long way from that Indian reservation you started in,” she said. “Pocahontas had dreams and went to England. My dreams brought me to Palm Beach.”

I'm not sure why you're summoning me. I've never done the Ancestry test. But I might have mentioned that I'm some % Indian. My grandfather was 1/4 some tribe or another.
If I ever stumble across some substantial benefits for 1/16 Indians, I might spend some time figuring it out.
That being said, if gets crazy and the blacks and Mexicans start some big revolution against the whites, I'll be among the first to paint my face and grab a spear.
Because I remember you saying you were of mixed heritage. You were probably trolling tho.
Until the whites suppress it. Then I'm back to eating chicken pot pie and watching Seinfeld.
As a wise old pedo once said..."you have to pick your spots".
According to sickdsm you hit the genetic jackpot. Congrats.
You've got a good memory for a black person.
I need someone to lay out the benefits for me. Maybe I'll kick myself for not filing as "Native American" earlier in my life.
Free ride to any prestigious university.
Thanks. Gingko biloba and beet juice is my secret.
For 1/16th??? I doubt that.
And that wouldn't have worked for me anyway. It took me 10 years to finish college.
I need some no interest financing or like that. Or some kind of casino kick back.
For real?
No joke, I'm part Comanche. Great grandfather came to Texas from the Oklahoma reservation. Never received 1 benefit from it.
Why didn't you say that. As a native american, you can propose casinos in their territory. I'm pretty sure many bankers can bankroll you.
So like anywhere I live, I can propose a casino? I'm liking where this is going. Would you like to be my business advisor?
More like reservations. Sure. Just make sure you got some indian blood in ya.
Whitest family I know, red headed boys skin so white they peel after20 minutes in the sun even with sunscreen are tribal members. They get that blood from their blond, blue eyed mom.
Legally tribal members. Are they a scam?
I do.
So do we just need to contact a reservation and propose a casino?
