7. Absolutely awesome!

I don't suppose Sanders ever did much for our First Nation people...

“I am honored to join my fellow Tribal Chairmen in supporting Secretary Clinton for president,” Cheyenne River Sioux Tribe Chairman Harold Frazier said. “Secretary Clinton has shown through her decades of public service her respect for tribal sovereignty and the sacred trust between the United States and our native nations. As president, Secretary Clinton will be a strong voice for Indian Country.”
