Navajo Nation Rally Sign in ABQ

Scoutj has taken some of the most beautiful photos of election-related events we’ve seen, all in New Mexico—and we’re so thrilled that she snapped this one from an Obama rally in Albuquerque. We love this sign celebrating both the Navajo Nation and the Obama campaign. If you’ve been following this election closely, you may have heard that Barack Obama has had really unprecented support about Native Americans. During the primaries, he was even adopted by the Crow Nation in Montana, and given the name, “One Who Helps People Throughout the Land.” He was the first presidential candidate to ever travel through the Crow Nation. You can read more about First Americans for Obama right here.

Note: I can recognize one of the signatures on the sign as NM Governor Bill Richardson (we lived in Santa Fe for much of Bill’s administration, so it’s pretty recognizable at this point). If you recognize any of the others, let us know!

Yes We Can!
