Why? No one wants it named McKinley. Except the Ohio delegation, 95% of whom don’t care. Let it go.

Even Palin calls it ‘Denali’, that’s good enough for me.

I'm not in Ohio. I'm a considerable distance from it.

It has been McMcKinley for 121 years, officially for 98.

A gold prospector renamed the mountain "McKinley" in 1896, and the name was recognized by the federal government in 1917...

People were just fine with the name, until some Leftist activists charged up the situation. Now we're supposed to back down and let it go.

Sorry, not going to do that. We've got the nation being occupied from the South. Our Constitution is experiencing a frontal assault these days. Obama is holding a fire-sale to essentially put us back 125 years.

Our kids are being sold on homosexuality and Marxism from the age of five (or less depending).

This McKinley move is merely more of the same. It may seem like nothing to you, but our influence on this hemisphere is being erased.

There are no small battles. We need to cram this right down the Leftist's throats until they choke on it. We don't and they move on to the next place.

Insert:

1) Wrangell-St. Elias
• Area: 13,005 square miles (33,683 sq km)
• Location: Alaska
• Year of Formation: 1980

2) Gates of the Arctic
• Area: 11,756 square miles (30,448 sq km)
• Location: Alaska
• Year of Formation: 1980

3) Denali
• Area: 7,408 square miles (19,186 sq km)
• Location: Alaska
• Year of Formation: 1917

Alaska has plenty of marks named region centric.

No to the renaming. We have a right to heredity too.
