>> a genealogist, cherokee genealogist looked in to it. there's no evidence of cherokee ancestry and her family. what's more, elizabeth warren has been saying these are the stories that my family members have told me. this is why i believe these things. however, this genealogist also looked into the underlying facts that she has had about the story and found them to not be true as well. for instance, grant herring, her grandfather, had a great relationship with a guy who was a member of the cherokee nation. they went golfing together. cornell attended her grandparents 25th anniversary in 1936. additionally her parents wedding announcement was made in the local newspaper. it seemed like it was a happy event, not some thing it was shameful to the family. a lot of inconsistencies and they found nothing about the story was true. >> tucker: nothing about the story was true.
