I'd say the Native Americans deserve it first.

Again, that's the evil Dems. Damn slippery slopes or
snowballs I want people to know the truth!

Read, "The Cherokee Nation against the State of Georgia",
and what the honored Democrat President
Andrew Jackson did about the decision.

Chief Justice Marshall ruled that Georgia's attempt to seize the Cherokee Nation was illegal, dismissing the charges against Rev. Worcester. Despite two U.S. Supreme Court decisions (1831 and 1832) upholding the rights of the Cherokee nation against the state of Georgia, which was attempting to destroy Cherokee sovereignty and take the Indians' land, Jackson refused to intervene on behalf of the Indians. Many tribes were resettled west of the Mississippi while he was in office. The removal of the Cherokee was finally accomplished (1838-39) by a forced trek westward during the administration of Jackson's successor, Martin Van Buren. {Note: also Democrat}
