Also renaming New York to New Kenya, and North America to This Place.
FROM FOX NEWS:
Sen. Lisa Murkowski, R-Alaska, who had pushed legislation for years to change the name, said Alaskans were “honored” to recognize the mountain as Denali.
“I’d like to thank the president for working with us to achieve this significant change to show honor, respect, and gratitude to the Athabascan people of Alaska,” Murkowski said in a video message recorded atop the mountain’s Ruth Glacier, with cloudy snow-capped peaks behind her.
Obama will not personally visit the peak during his stay in Alaska, which runs through Wednesday. He’ll spend much of the trip in Anchorage, south of the peak, where he will attend a State Department-sponsored meeting on climate change, titled GLACIER/Global Leadership in the Arctic Conference.
Obama is supported by Alaska’s Senator.

Just another place to do this: “-” ————> Mt. McKinley-Denali.
Please see post number 6. Thank-you!
The Kenyan claims that Denali is “central to the Athabaskan CREATION story”. If that’s true, what the hell is that “land bridge” thing all about? We’re dealing with morons here.
Use this: -.
Whatever Obama does now with his “Executive Orders” can be undone next year by Trump and/or Cruz.
I thought “Denali” was a river in Etypg.
0bama has nothing left, this just stokes his sizeable ego.
That’s fair. Most Americans have renamed Obama POS instead of POTUS.
President McKinley had never even been to Alaska much less had anything to ever do with that mountain. Somewhere along the line someone just named it out of thin air for that president.
It never should have been changed from Denali in reality.
This and being forced to get Bin Laden might have been the only two things he got right in his Presidency.
I’m sure some day Obama will have a mountain of manure named after him, but THAT would be deserving.

Okay, let’s rename JFK Airport to Idlewild.................
If you live in Alaska, you’d better buy up all those “McKinley” souvenirs.
SO, to combat Climate Change, we're renaming a mountain in honor of an SUV..................got it................
Murkowski is another example of the corrupt GOP just as in the Mississippi election.
The GOP bosses pee on the base and tell them its raining.
