They were, many of the Republic's ideals were based on more than one tribe's governance.
They did try.

But the Indians didn't do that dar512, did they. And look what happened to them. Those that don't learn from history are doomed to get fucked.

the lands that the plymouth settlers first settled on had been virtually emptied by disease brought by prior white traders. therefore, they were in no real position to defend the land. and were by no means united among themselves. Had they been hale and populous, they very well may have defended their land with force. ...for a time.

If the Indians had been Republicans, then they would have freed the slaves before the white man got there. Imagine how many lives would have been saved without a Civil War.

Even if the Civil War had been about slavery, that still wouldn't make any sense.

What are you talking about? Republicans owned slaves.

Dang Wolf, we typed that at the same time.... lol.

The Republican Party considers Lincoln their founding father.

There was more than enough Indians to kick ass. They were so close to Plymouth Plantation, there wasn't enough land for the Pilgrims to expand their fields. That's why they asked permission to plant a section further south from where they landed. The Wampanoags said, have at it, because the village that had been on that spot died out of disease, and they wanted no parts of it.

Doomed, schmoomed, it's cyclical, that's all--more Indians are simply coming back to this area, from points south. And nobody's being fucked except for them.

Indians? Not Indians. They aint no stinkin' Indians.
Mexicans are just as mongrel as we are.

bluecuracao · 07-26-2007, 08:19 PM

Like hell they aren't. Mexico alone has more Indians than the U.S.

Are you trying to tell me all these illegal immigrants are pureblood Indians? No Spanish, french, Black, English, blood? Me, your oldest and dearest friend.

Nooooo, that is not what I'm trying to tell you.
