to me Atleo was the great hope for Native causes, he's a guy that's stressing education and accountability.

For him to get swept up in the way that he is dissapoints me a bit.

If there's going to be dialogue its going to have to be between moderates on both sides, not ranting and raving and demanding more money.

They can negotiate on the resources, the respect does to an extent at this point have to be earned on both sides.

But to throw your lot in with people like spence and to start parroting them is an approach that's going to turn off the average tax payers to their cries for help.
