Dyani Bingham: Barack Obama has helped the first Americans

Thursday, November 1, 2012  

"It is our pleasure and honor to endorse President Barack Obama for re-election to the Presidency of the United States of America.

President Obama has been a friend to the Indian Nations. He has a true understanding of the cultures and history of America’s First Peoples and his relationship was made even stronger when he was adopted into the Apsaalooke (Crow) Nation in 2008 and given the name, “One Who Helps People Throughout the Land.”

Barack Obama recognized, even as a Senator, that the needs of Tribes and American Indians have been ignored by Washington for too long. He vowed to improve the health care and education opportunities on reservations across the nation saying, “Our government has not always been honest or truthful in our deals.” President Barack Obama has lived up to his name."
