When will Scott Brown go after the "color" of Palin's kids?

“Professor Warren claimed that she was a Native American, a person of color, and as you can see, she’s not,” -- Scott Brown In their first debate, Brown attacked Elizabeth Warren for being dishonest about her 1/32 Cherokee blood heritage. I'm not sure if that's just not a high enough blood quota for Mr. Brown, but it's enough for the Cherokee Nation's principal chief, Bill John Baker. He was elected and has 1/32 heritage blood. In Alaska, Sarah Palin's children and grandchildren are eligible for Indian Health Services. Custody documents released during the Bristol/Levi case showed their child (through Todd Palin's Native Alaskan blood line) was receiving his health care through the Alaska Native Medical Centers. According to Mr. Brown's logic, Palin's grandkids (and many other First Alaskans/First Americans) shouldn't have these benefits -- they aren't "colored" enough.
