By nation I was referring to the CNO (Cherokee Nation of Oklahoma). Are you an enrolled member?
No, but I could be.
However, why would want to be a member of the CNO, who just broke a treaty and denied citizenship and benefits to others who are just as Cherokee as I am, except for the fact that the people denied citizenship and benefits are Black, and they are ancestors of slaves owned by the Cherokee?
Not enrolling...

Utterly amazed...

Yes that is the hypocrisy of it all. The overwhelming majority of the CNO has less than 1/4 blood and they excluded descendants of enrolled members because they descended from slaves, many of whom have Cherokee blood that was undocumented because they were also black.
Well a sovereign nation should be able to do what it wants but when a nation such as the CNO starts looking and behaving like any town in Iowa my tax dollars really are not necessary to provide for their health care or special casino rights.
Blonde haired blue eyed Indians? There was no such thing where I grew up. If you had blonde hair and blue eyes you were White or possibly Mexican, but you sure weren't Indian. Get a DNA test!

There was a tribe of tall, fair skinned, fair haired Indians in Florida when the first Europeans came. Those Indians had zero resistance to small pox and all died. It is history. Research it yourself.
There were actually only three protesters, and they refused to identify themselves to NECN. Warren got enough support at the Democratic Convention that she has no opponent in the Primary. Sounds to me like there was little opposition and much support for her, based on the facts of what took place at the Convention.
All them three of them protesters hootin' and hollerin' sounds more like three indians with too much fire water and a GOP bankroll.
What surprised me is that republicans had little to say about GW Bush speaking to God and God speaking back. If the anyone else said that they would find themselves on the funny farm for 72 hours.
Let us not forget good old Mitt Romney organizing a gang of thugs and attacking and harassing a gay person.
