Population: 90 million 30% indigenous (Pure Indian) 60% mestizo (Mixed) 9% white

I have some amount of Cherokee blood in me. That does not change the fact that I am a descendant of those who pretty much conquered the Cherokee. For me to demand my "homeland" in northern Georgia and declare myself a special race would be pretty silly. Just as silly as Mestizo Mexicans claiming that they are the rightful owners of "Aztlan" or are "La Raza"/THE RACE. Thats my point.

Hey, that makes two of us. Think we could be a recognized tribe? I've always wanted to get into the casino business myself.
