Knowing the history some, McKinley had never been to Alaska or seen that mountain.
I think this goes down as one of two right things Obama may have done in as President . Nobody in Alaska called it McKinley when I was there.
The other right thing was when he was forced to let our troops get Bin Laden.
The rest is pretty much failure unless you are a fan of his golf game.
He was golfing when it started to do down and VJ could get a hold of him in time to stop it like he did the 3 times before.
4,000 mile trips to the Alaskan wilderness weren’t very practical if not life threatening in the 1890’s.
Trump is going to change it back. Rule of law restored.
Ohio electoral votes 18.
Alaska electoral votes 3.
The natives can call it what they want to.

You missed the whole point. It is not whether it was good to change the name, or that most in Alaska wanted it. It was whether or not Obama has the authority, by means of his pen, to invalidate a law that has been on the books for many years. If he could, he would set himself up as dictator of the whole country! Jan 2017 can’t come fast enough!
Sorry, but it was not ‘good’ for our president to VIOLATE the law like he’s done several times now- This action should have been brought before congress and voted on like the law requires-
Even if that guy was OBL, which many don’t believe it was, he had zero to do with it.
His magic pen must be stopped.
I have lived in Alaska since before statehood. It’s always been McKinley.
