Obama: U.S. must reverse course with Indians
President meets with tribal leaders, saying "I'm on your side"
WASHINGTON - President Barack Obama assured American Indians on Thursday that they have a place in his White House and on his agenda, telling tribal leaders their marginalized community deserves more from its government.
"I get it. I'm on your side," Obama told the largest gathering of tribal leaders in U.S. history.
Obama devoted part of his own time Thursday and even more of his administration's attention toward renewing relations with American Indians. He opened a conference that drew leaders from 386 tribal nations — the first meeting of its kind in 15 years — and he ordered every Cabinet agency to take more steps toward more cooperation.
