In presidential politics every scrap of biographical information a candidate puts out can and will be used against them.
That's the upshot of Elizabeth Warren's law school application, which the 2020 Democrat's campaign put out last year to blunt criticisms over wrongly claiming Native American lineage to help with law school teaching applications years later.
But detractors can now seize on releases as further evidence of the Massachusetts senator and top-tier candidate mudding the personal narrative that Warren weaves on the trail. That includes why she left her “dream job†as a special needs public school teacher to study law. Warren eventually secured a teaching post at Rutgers University, her law school alma mater, the University of Houston, the University of Texas, the University of Pennsylvania, and Harvard Law School, where she made enemies on Wall Street as a fierce consumer advocate.
Warren’s 1973 application to Rutgers School of Law in New Jersey was posted on her website in 2018 when she revealed a DNA test showing she had one Native American ancestor six to 10 generations ago. Her team annotated the document with red boxes to underscore how Warren, 70, identified as being white.
