The Babbitt family is generally despised in N. Arizona, especially on the Navajo reservation. The Babbitts used to operate a large number of trading posts up there, and were caught by the government shortchanging the Indians. The Babbitt trading company was forced into a settlement by the Feds while proclaiming "no wrong-doing".

Thank you. Somehow, I was thinking that when Bruce ran for Gov.& Atty Gen (not in that order), he pretty well swept Flagstaff and the Rez clean. Or was that the Verkamps? (sometimes I get them confused).
