But claiming Native blood without evidence cuts to the very core of Native American identity because it usurps the rights American Indians have to define their own people and nations, according to native advocates. "The problem with Elizabeth Warren is she is not the average wannabe," said David Cornsilk, a Cherokee historian and genealogist. "She is an academic. She has a higher level of aptitude to examine these issues. And a higher responsibility to examine them, and accept the research that is done, or to counter it with alternative research." Cornsilk described himself as a liberal who supports Warren’s agenda of attacking income inequality. "Warren could be an ally," Cornsilk said. "But she will not be an ally that we will accept if she continues to claim Cherokee and Delaware heritage without proof."
