According to one source, FDR visited the Cherokee reservation in North Carolina in 1934 and Clinton visited the Pine Ridge reservation in North Dakota in 1999. If they would have gone back 9 decades, they would have had to mention that Calvin Coolidge visited the Sioux reservation in South Dakota in 1927, where he was adopted into the Sioux Nation. But it just wouldn’t do to acknowledge that the first sitting President to visit an Indian reservation was Republican. It wouldn’t fit the meme.

I thought there must be some reason they picked that particular time span.

Thanks for your response!
