Obama better brush up on Lakota history. While Sitting Bull was an important figure by some accounts he did not even directly participate in the Battle of Little Big Horn. After the Indian Wars, Sitting Bull also traveled and performed with Buffalo Bill Cody's Wild West Show.

The true warrior spirit of the Lakota is probably best embodied in Chief Crazy Horse who lead his warriors in directly attacking Custer's position. An entire mountain in the South Dakota Black Hills is being carved as a monument to Crazy Horse.

Which IMO is the last thing in the world Crazy Horse would have wanted as a monument.

The NA sponsored statue in the Black Hills is of Crazy Horse not Sitting Bull. Message there.
