Ya'all are missing the       point by getting caught up in semantics, but don't worry I forgive you! I mean       no disrespect, but come on! Haa ahhaha. I AM a member of A.I.M. of MI(founding       member). The native        elders began calling me Rainbow before this clip you saw on C-SPAN and CNN,       etc. However, to be historically accurate, I created and proclaimed the       Declaration of Interdependence, declaring one tribe for all people first at       the Detroit Indian Center (       Indian Health Center) at the Wednesday night social, a few months before the       footage you saw was shot. This of course was many moons ago. However, I just       saw the post and am fully available for discussion. I just put up my first       website and am creating a        Proclamation of Laughter for the City of Cottonwood, AZ. I do like joking       around a lot, yet I am not kidding about all this...it is a way to bring us       together. It's that simple.              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
