Go tell it on a mountain…
Everyone is furious with President Obama. Every day he does something off-putting. The latest is formally renaming Alaska’s Mt. McKinley — North America’s highest peak — “Denali”.
“Mount McKinley … has held the name of our nation’s 25th President for over 100 years,” Rep. Bob Gibbs, R-Ohio, said. “This landmark is a testament to his countless years of service to our country.” Gibbs said that an act of Congress was required to rename the mountain, because a law formally naming it after Ohio’s William McKinley was passed in 1917.

Really not important..Obama will wipe America off the map, if he is allowed!
He just changed it back to the original name and that’s the way it should be for the Alaskan people.
What a disrespect to McKinley!
It should have gone through congress, not done by an executive order!
I think the conservative base has some of the dumbest people in our country!
Hope Trump changes it back as he gets in office++++
Only a short while. He may need to climb it to get to the top of something.
This actually had little to do with Obama. I don’t agree with much of anything Obama says or does, but the Alaskans had already been calling this Denali since before some stupid prospector named it after the CANDIDATE McKinley before he was elected President. Alaska has already renamed it, and had pe$#%&!@*ioned for the WH to also recognize it as Denali… so this is really no big deal. McKinley was never there, and it should never have been changed to begin with. They’ve been trying to change it back since the 70’s.
Anyone that lives or had lived in Alaska has called it Denali! Rename some mountain in ohio McKinley, then everyone will be happy.
What White History, the Native American inhabitants already named it Denali.
