You know, I never hear a Democrat apologize for that genocidal maniac and the Democrat Congress who tried to exterminate the Cherokee. Andrew Jackson tried to ethnically cleanse the Southeast. He had the military forcibly round up Cherokees and take them on a death march to the wilderness. Among the Cherokee 4,000 people out of a population of just 17,000 died on the death march.

If Blacks are due an apology for slavery, the Cherokee certainly are for the attempted genocide.

Obama, Pelosi and Reid should apologize for this atrocity. It is a stain on the soul of the nation and especially on the Democrat Party. Every Democrat politician who attends or speaks at a Jefferson-Jackson Day event should be asked if they support genocide.

BTW, on the way West the Cherokee of Indian ancestry rode on the train. The black slaves walked. Guess who died first?
