Vote McCain - Palin

My vote goes to McCain - Palin!

The dems have been promising a Native American Voice in the White House forever and it has yet to be done!

Spreading the wealth means that Obama will find a way to *tax* gaming revenues - so that he can spread the wealth to *Black* communities ... spreading the wealth does not mean help to American Indian Communities! He could very well, just stop any federal funds to those Tribes that have casinos - this is another way to place a *tax* on Native America.

Government will grow larger, become more involved in your *personal* life and slow the economy even further. By taxing corporations, more of them that can will move outside the US, taking jobs with them and those that can't move or are small businesses will go belly up - because of the restrictions and additional regulations placed on them. Joe the plummer probably doesn't have a license to be a plummer because he probably can't afford the government *process* to obtain one, this same problem occurs within the construction industry - there are so many requirements, regulations and costs, that getting a contractor's license becomes an obstacle to working and earning a living, not to mention the number of jobs that are lost because those businesses are unable to operate. In other words, it just becomes harder and harder for small businesses to remain afloat and more and more of us will have to engage in *government welfare* just to survive.

Biden calls paying higher taxes *patriotic*, I guess he's never heard of the Boston Tea Party. Taxation without representation - well, Native America has NEVER been represented in Congress!

They are extending at least part of U.S. 169 from Talala on up almost to Nowata to a 4 lane highway! It's about time! Nowata has laid dormant long enough! In this part of the woods or hills, those 4 lane highways help towns prosper!! Work where you must, but LIVE in Nowata....:)

Americanization of Native Americans

Americanization can refer to the policies of the United States government and public opinion that there is a standard set of cultural values that should be held in common by all citizens. Education was and is viewed as the primary method in the acculturation process. These opinions were harshly applied when it came to Americanization of Native Americans compared to immigrant populations who arrived with their "non-American traditions". The Americanization policies said that when indigenous people learned American customs and values they would soon merge tribal traditions with European-American culture and peacefully melt into the greater society. For example in the 1800s and early 1900s, traditional religious ceremonies were outlawed and it was mandatory for children to attend English speaking boarding schools where native languages and cultural traditions were forbidden. The Dawes Act of 1887 , which allotted tribal lands to individuals and resulted in an estimated total o...

Indian Boarding Schools - the US Solution to the Indian Problem

American Indian Boarding Schools Haunt Many by Charla Bear This is the first in a two-part report. For the photos with this piece and the rest of the story: http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=16516865 May 13, 2008 Col. Richard H. Pratt founded the first of the off-reservation Native American boarding schools based on the philosophy that, according to a speech he made in 1892, "all the Indian there is in the race should be dead." CORBIS 'Kill the Indian...Save the Man' According to Col. Richard Pratt's speech in 1892: "A great general has said that the only good Indian is a dead one, and that high sanction of his destruction has been an enormous factor in promoting Indian massacres. In a sense, I agree with the sentiment, but only in this: that all the Indian there is in the race should be dead. Kill the Indian in him, and save the man." From Need to 'National Tragedy' Early in the history of American Indian boarding schools, the...
