Just.Another.White.Presidential.Politician.™

The Atlantic summarizes well why Barack Obama means nothing new to American Indians.
Congress is no friend of the American Indian. Surely this Supreme Court isn't, either. And there was a need to clarify the rules on eagle feathers. But is this really the best President Obama can do?
Well, it seems like the best he wants to try to do. It's better than Bush, but once again on that count, Obama benefits from the soft bigotry of low post-Bush expectations.

And, I'm curious how many people will click this link thinking this post is about a GOP presidential candidate and not Obama.
