Huh??? the actor, who claimed to be part Cherokee and part Cree and appeared in upwards of 80 films in American Indian roles--often playing characters identified only as "Indian," "Indian Chief" or "Indian Joe"--was really an Italian-American from Louisiana. His real name: Oscar DeCorti.

Were Italian Americans disenfranchised???

A fake indian's picture appears in connection with an article on indian voter fraud.

The irony was apparently lost on you.
