@AdamBaldwin @aurabogado #2. Blood quantum. This varies from tribe to tribe, however the standard tends to be 1/4 blood.
@TheEeriestElk Kinda. CIB isn't always necessary (think Freedmen), and lineal descent is used over blood quantum for some nations, too.

@aurabogado If you are not using the legal definition, you have lost any authority. -
@TheEeriestElk You're saying Cherokee Nation, for example, doesn't have authority to decide to use lineal descent and not blood quantum? -
@aurabogado I state the legal def. is the only authority when dealing with who is and is not. Anything else is a game of words. -
@TheEeriestElk Right. Good luck stripping the Cherokee Nation and others of their sovereignty with your misunderstanding of the law. - End of conversation
