Obama in Montana
Can anyone fill me in on what happened at the Crow Reservation rally? I turned it on just as it finished. What was he talking about being a family member now? Dammit I didn't want to miss this.

2. I missed much of it but I heard he was given a Crow name
and given I guess some sort of honorary status into their tribe.

From what I heard it was a very personal speech about indian rights, race, and respect.
