Just let her have the electric aircraft next time, much cheaper and supports the New Green Deal.
Don't let the wife know what you spend on guns, ammo or cigars.

CNN commentator Rick Santorum (which, in itself is an oxymoron), made comments that were enough to pi$$ off the entire indian nations.
CNN should have terminated his contract the next day. But nope.

Early explorers did not even distinguish a difference in skin color with most native americans and it wasn't until christians took over, that the term red skin or red man even show up.
Some tribes, referred to themselves as red. Red means brave, courage or honor.
Choctaw and a few eastern tribes were known as red people.
Oklahoma is derived from Choctaw/South Eastern (Cherokee, Shawnee, etc) Native languages meaning People of Red or Red People.
Other tribes described themselves in their language as being red earth people, which whites translated to mean red people.So you see, the reference to red has never been skin color, as much as their culture and how they viewed themselves.

A few years ago I was on a phone call with some insurance or government office that wanted to know my Race. My first answer was "Scotch-Irish". The snippy woman on the other end of the conversation told me there was no such category.
"Oh," I said, "OK, just put Euro-American."
She said "What?"
I repeated "Euro-American".
She'd never heard of that.
"Have you ever heard of Afro-American?" I asked.
"Of course." she replied.
"Well," I said "It's just like that, except for European instead of African."
"I'm just putting Caucasian" she said.
"Oh no" I replied, "There's no evidence my family was ever in the Caucasus region"
"Well, you're obviously White" came the answer.
I argued that for a minute, but I'm guessing I'm Caucasian on her form.WARNING: The above post may contain thoughts or ideas known to the State of Caliphornia to cause seething rage, confusion, distemper, nausea, perspiration, sphincter release, or cranial implosion to persons who implicitly trust only one news source, or find themselves at either the left or right political extreme.

I got to thinking about this. Y'all correct me if I'm wrong, but I seem to remember reading somewhere that our representative form of government in the United States was nearly a carbon copy of the government of the Five Tribes in the Northeast that was in place when the settlers first began moving into that part of the world. If I'm correct then the most overt Native cultural contribution to America was it's very structure of government. Am I wrong?

You are correct. The constitution was based on the Iroquois society.

That being the case, it explains why CNN keeps the guy... He fits their totally clueless profile, and instead of news, he spouts wacky opinion. Just the guy for the job.

I totally agree
That is why I can not figure out Anderson Cooper. He was born filthy rich, highly educated from prestigious schools and actually seems like a nice guy. He has been a guest host on Jeopardy and I think has done a great job. He does not need to follow the BS that CNN pushes. Why?Logistics cannot win a war, but its absence or inadequacy can cause defeat. FM100-51 -
He said from the outset that he wanted to make his own self and career without treading on the vanderbilt name. Plus, he's an openly gay liberal, where else would he be a host? Fox? I don't think that hannity would share a dressing room with him...

Jesus. it grew to 400,000 users before it was taken down and the owners arrested....
German police have arrested three men and a fourth is being held in Paraguay for allegedly running one of the world's biggest online networks for sharing images of child sex abuse.
The international operation, involving several police forces, targeted a dark net platform called Boystown, which has now been taken down.
Officials say Boystown had more than 400,000 registered users.
