Obama= The one who is high.
Actually the better translation from the Athabascan is The Great One. The mountain is called Denali by both indigent Alaskans of all races and long-term residents, and Mt. McKinley by the tourists.
It was the interfering, now it all Feds that named it after the man from Ohio. There is a deep under current of resentment from indigent Alaskans agains the Feds that come in and force change on their traditions. It has been Denali for centuries, McKinley had nothing to do with it.
