If we must replace him with an Indian, I would prefer Chief Stand Waite of the Cherokees.

It would take those morons forever to get the joke.

Stand owned slaves, who worked on his plantation in the Indian Territory of what is now Oklahoma. Stand Watie - Wikipedia https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stand_Watie Watie, a slave holder, developed a successful plantation on Spavinaw Creek in the Indian Territory. He served on the Cherokee Council from 1845 to 1861, and served as Speaker from 1857 to 1859. After John Ross fled to Federal-controlled territory in 1862, Watie replaced Ross as principal chief. Rank‎: ‎Brigadier General (CSA) Years of service‎: ‎1861–1865 (CSA)
