Notes on some of Bristol’s distant relatives – http://www.suite101.com
Diana – you need to check yourself. Bristol is Native Alaskan (Indian) her ancestry was featured (yes the actual natives) on Sarah Palin’s show. They are down-to-earth REAL people who could take care of themselves with no doubt if and when this world falls apart. All indicitive of native skills………..
Where does the native Alaskan come into play? Yes, she lives in Alaska, but her mother isn’t part Native, nor is her father. You have come to this conclusion based on her physical appearance. European people have many different features. She looks very similar to Ivanka Trump, who is 100% Caucasoid.
Actually, Sarah Palin stated recently on her show that her husband Todd is third generation Native Alaskan.
wonderful example of a Czech country with multiple Hun [asian steppes] invasions.
She is not the one in the red!! She is the one holding the baby!!
she looks very “Native Alaskan”
You need to put an S in her its Bristol.
Her name is Bristol. The S is missing.
