Pictures of Barack Obama visiting the Crow Reservation in Montana
This is Obama visiting the Crow Agency in Montana. Obama was adopted into the Crow Tribe and given an Indian name that means: "One who helps people throughout the land. He was adopted by Crow Tribal members Hartford "Sonny" and Mary Black Eagle. The adoption makes Obama a member of the Whistling Water Clan and a child of the Newly Made Lodge.

On another note, as a member of the Blackfeet Tribe the bitter enemies of the Crow, I will now be forced to take my campaign all the way to the convention. I like Obama, but he's officially an enemy now. :)

Oh and all of the pictures were taken by my cousin, Steve Juneau, who gets much props for his stealthy recon mission among our enemies. :)

4. I love this...what is the name given to him?
I love the fact that he is recognizing the Indian Nations and their heritage. Our nation did a horrific disservice to our nations for-fathers.

5. Barack Black Eagle is his tribal name
He was given a Crow name, AWE KOOTA BILXPAAK KOOXSHIIWIASH, which translates to "he who helps all people of the land."

8. I'm not sure
They were bigger before but when I saved them they ended up this size. I'll see if I can keep them larger.
