BILLINGS, Mont. (AP) -- An elder from Montana's Crow Indian Tribe who ceremoniously adopted then-Sen. Barack Obama into his family during the 2008 presidential race has died.
Tribal officials say 78-year-old Hartford "Sonny" Black Eagle Jr. died Monday at his home in Lodge Grass on the tribe's reservation in the southeastern part of the state.

He did say however that he does intend to continue voting for Barry Squawking Pigeon if Barry decides to run for a third term.

Good for him — he picked a good year to die.
If he died next year his estate would have been taxed at 55 percent.
That is, if he had one, and if he is subject to taxes (not sure if he was, being an Indian).

Huh. Did not know Obama was “adopted” as a native American.
But it proves one thing. He is more of an injun than Elizabeth Warren.

I’ve adopted Obama into my tribe. Wait until he gets his tribal tax bill. It’s 86 trillion dollars. His official tribal name is Jackass That Talks. He is allowed to wear a headdress made of chicken feathers.

News probably broke like this:
Location: Oval Office.Axelrod: "Mr. President, I have some sad news. The Tribal Elder from Montana's Crow Indian Tribe who adopted you in 2008 has passed away."
Bronco Bama [practicing his putting]: "Uh huh. What's for lunch?"
