Democratic presidential candidate Marianne Williamson, calling for a national "atonement" over the treatment of Native Americans, vowed Monday to rescind medals of honor for those who fought against them and even take down President Andrew Jackson's portrait from the Oval Office if she's elected.
The spiritual author, who has gained a devoted following in recent weeks for her memorable debate performances, called for a new era of American history with Native Americans during an appearance at the Frank LaMere Native American Presidential Forum.
"We can atone. We can make amends," Williamson said. "And if and when I'm president of the United States, we will. We will begin by taking that picture of Andrew Jackson off the wall of the Oval Office."
Jacksons presidency was notoriously marked by the signing of the Indian Removal Act, which resulted in violent conflicts between Native Americans and the U.S. government amid the relocation of thousands of Native Americans.
Williamson called the portrait "one of the greatest insults."
She then took aim at another symbol from that historic period, vowing to withdraw military medals of honor for those who fought against Native Americans.

Marianne — be sure and wear your name tag at events.
And where do they come from? Former street corner beggars/current drug addicts? Yeah, that'll pretty much finish this country, which is what the RATs are eyeing anyway.
So, shes up for tearing down the Comanche, Kiowa, Blackfoot and Apache monuments, museums and casinos? Because they were into atrocities as a way of life long before Andy Jackson ever showed up.
Well, rest easy, folks. Especially any fans of President Jackson. Our beloved POTUS Trump will get another four year term. By that time Ms. Williams’s 0% crack at the White House will be remembered as the laughingstock she made it. The chutzpah of some people’s brats! Blabbing what they’ll do, while stuck at 0% in the polls. Ai-yai-yai!
Except for a brief period during "The Great Patriotic War", when Stalin approved making films about Aleksandr Nevsky and Ivan the Terrible.
This chick is like the Bizzarro version of Kellyanne Conway.
Her audience was aghast, and wondering: Why?
Not a lot of “woke” Social Justice Warriors on the reservation.
I am certain they think it’s as silly as we do.
——The way we treated the Indians was horrific.——
Yes it was....and some treatment were well deserved...
The Injuns already have a candidate, Princess Gray Beaver.
I will help her by relieving her of all the pictures she gets of President Jackson on the $20 bill.
Of course, that’s the purpose of the rats. Rewrite history
I am really pissed at the way the Mongol hordes treated south Asia. Where do I got to get atonement for that?
And what Caine did to Abel sucks too. I was Team Abel all the way. I want $50 for that sin.
“The rest of the title is: in atonement for Native American treatment”
I’m willing to take down both Jackson’s and FraudCo’s photos in atonement for their treatment of Americans.
Why don’t they just proclaim “History started with today’s breakfast” and be done with it? Then they could destroy all the history books and abolish all history classes.
There is NOTHING in our national history that they like. Nothing at all. Except maybe the Stonewall riots, the Antifa riots, cop killing, the Seattle WTO riots, the Occupy Wall Street kooks, and the 1919 Anarchist bombings.
Andrew Jackson was the FIRST Democratic Party president, LOL!
They have been about taking the fun out of life for the 50 or so years that I have been paying attention.
That's what the Khmer Rouge did, reset the clock to "Year Zero".
How about Woody Wilson’s as well for re-segregating the US Government?
Oh she does have a brain alright, but it’s the size of a pea.
