'Barack Black Eagle'

[Silverback]

In Montana yesterday, Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama was "adopted" by the Crow Nation in one of the more colorful events of the presidential campaign so far, USA TODAY's Fredreka Schouten reports. She writes that:

The Illinois senator was given a Crow name, Awe Kooda bilaxpak Kuuxshish, which means "one who helps people throughout the land." And, he was presented with several gifts -- including a bolo tie for him and intricately beaded buckskin baby-carrying pouches for his two daughters.

Obama, who was greeted by a large crowd -- many in traditional clothing -- pledged to deliver world-class health care and education to tribal nations and to "shake-up" the federal Bureau of Indian Affairs. "Few have been ignored by Washington for as long as Native Americans," he told the cheering crowd in Crow Agency, Mont.

Obama said that growing up as the biracial child of a single mother, "I know what it's like to be on the outside…I know what it's like to struggle." He promised to "never forget" his new Indian "family"

"You will be on my mind every day when I'm in the White House," he said. Montana's Democratic presidential primary is set for June 3.

Mr Obama has created a "Cult-like" reaction among those that follow him. I mean this guy gets on national TV and says "We can't drive our SUVs and eat as much as we want and keep our homes on 72 degrees at all times ... and then just expect that other countries are going to say OK," "That's not leadership. That's not going to happen,"

And then leaves the event by SUV????


Wake up people, your cult leader is a HUMAN BEING!

DO NOT DRINK THE KOOL-AID....IT'S POISON!

But he's the candidate of "change".



Taking 20 percent more of my income in taxes would be a change.
Paying 10 dollars a gallon for gas would be a change.
Taking away individual freedoms and possesions would be a change.


Maybe "change" isn't all that good.

No, he means once he is in office, all you will have left in your pockets is "change"!!!!

Well said Ranger JLTW!

But he's the candidate of "change"...

Summary of Obama speeches:

"My campaign is all about change, because we have to change, and together we can make changes. Change is good. Change changes things. So we must change. If we don’t change there can be no changes and things will never change. We have to change the way we change things because without changing things we can never change the way things are changed. If you believe in change as I believe in change, then we believe in changing things, and we can make changes, and we can then change things so the changes change the changes. My campaign is all about change."
