I live in Virginia. The politically correct term here, according to the tribes themselves is "American Indian."

I wouldn't call that the "politically correct" term, so much as it is what is preferred over the P.C. "Native American" which was a pretty stupid label made up by pretty stupid people.

American Indian works just fine for me - it puts America first. ;0)

I'm so confused - I thought "American Indian" referred to the guys running 7-11s who got their Green Cards.

The same was true when I was in Oklahoma. Some of the gangs even wore Cleveland Indians or Washington Redskins gear as "colors". Half the high school teams in the state seemed to have Amerind-based names. This almost has to be a fake. "Harvey White Woman" protesting a strip club name?? Riiiiiiiiigggghhhhhht.
