Comprehensive Policy for First Nations 1. Sovereignty
Many people in this country have forgotten that Native Americans constitute this country's First Americans, and their tribes our First Nations. We all need to remember that Indian tribes are sovereign nations and treaties between the tribes and the federal government are treaties between sovereign equals.
First and foremost, I would honor our treaties with our First Nations.
My administration will offer all First Nations an official apology for the past injustices of the United States of America toward native peoples. We cannot work together now and in the future until we reconcile the past. This healing needs to take place.
http://www.kucinich.us/pressreleases/pr_011504.phpDennis Kucinich has said that as President he will:
"will offer an official apology to our First Nations, on behalf of the United States, for the more that two hundred years of “broken treaties, broken promises, and broken hearts.”

ICT: Yes … but if you could tell us what is the common, most important concern of all Indian tribes, what would it be?
Kucinich: Truth. The truth about the U.S. government treatment of Native Americans. That is the consistent concern. The truth must be told and when the truth is told the American people will open up their hearts and begin the healing process. And my role is to be the truth teller.
ICT: What kind of response are you getting from Indian county to your candidacy so far?
Kucinich: It’s been with open arms. People are grateful that someone cares about them to learn and to share and to speak about the issues. Especially a presidential candidate. That’s where it becomes very important.
Dennis truly connecets with Native Americans ...no more lies...truth & hope. That is what Dennis is about....healing....
Peace
