Obama: U.S. can do more to help Native Americans
Associated Press 4:54 p.m. MST June 13, 2014
CANNON BALL, N.D. — President Barack Obama on Friday became only the third U.S. sitting president in eight decades to set foot in Indian Country, encountering both the wonder of Native American culture and the struggle of tribal life on a breeze-whipped afternoon in the prairie. Amid snapping flags and colorful, befeathered dancers, Obama declared that there was more the U.S. could do to help Native Americans.
Obama drew attention to inroads his administration has made with tribes even as he promoted the need to help reservations create jobs, strengthen justice, and improve health and education.
"Young people should be able to live, and work, and raise a family right here in the land of your fathers and mothers," Obama told a crowd of about 1,800 during a Flag Day Celebration at the Standing Rock Sioux Reservation.
Citing legendary tribal chief Sitting Bull, Obama said: "Let's put our minds together to build more economic opportunity in Indian country. Because every American, including every Native American deserves a chance to work hard and get ahead."

Steve-o, just because you're crying all the time don't go thinking that we're going to believe that your great great grandmother survived the Trail of Tears.

this prime example of american democracy hypocrisy. It should bring tears to your eyes. The evil, violent americans that did this are called republicans and teahadists in todays world. I just hope it not just rhetoric for public consumption and our POTUS finally does something substantial for the people of the First American Nations.
Republicans and teahadists, huh?
I wonder what the father of the democrat party had to say about forced Indian removal?
“John Marshall has made his decision; now let him enforce it! ... Build a fire under them. When it gets hot enough, they'll go.â€
—-Andrew Jackson, 1832
If heaven05 doesn't know who this Andrew Jackson person is, he's the Jackson in the annual democrat fundraisers called Jackson Day dinners.
After the photo op, Obama brushed off the North Dakota dust and got back to the important work of presidentin'.

What is most wonderful about it?
The liquor, the laziness, the discount smokes, or the crooked keno games?
Nope, it's the 98% democrat voting record.

Megyn Kelly had a great opening to her show last night.
“Al-Qaida is resurging, Iraq is disintegrating and now we may look to Iran to help us stop it,†Kelly explained. “Iran — a terrorist regime responsible for the deaths of thousands of Americans … We have drawn red lines in Syria we refuse to enforce, we stood by as Russia seized part of the Ukraine, and now we are releasing top Taliban leaders as the Afghanistan war is still going.â€
“Domestically, we have a president who has lost the trust of the American people by repeatedly misleading them,†she said. “He bypasses Congress, the people’s representatives, on matters ranging from Obamacare to immigration law, to the point one of the most respected liberal law professors in the country has called our president ‘the very danger the Constitution was designed to avoid.’â€
“The American public overwhelmingly regrets ObamaCare, our veterans are dying waiting to see doctors, the IRS intimidates conservative groups, the southern border is compared to a sieve and the president assures us not to worry,†she concluded. “Smiling, golfing and at this very moment partying with fashion queen Anna Wintour … because the fundraising never stops – not when four Americans die in Benghazi, and not when Baghdad is at the brink.â€
