DAVI: Obama’s Renaming of Mount McKinley Should Outrage Americans
I am not sure if the name change of Mt. McKinley to Denali is of any consequence to you, but let me suggest why I think you should be outraged.

Alaskans, and millions who love Alaska, support changing the name of Mt. McKinley to Denali. And that is exactly why President Barack Obama’s unilateral decision to change the name is so wrong.

On August 30, President Barack Obama made an executive decision along with the Department of Interior to change the name of Alaska’s Mount McKinley to its Athabascan Indian name, “Denali.”

As president Obama prepares his three-day trip to Alaska, he announced his intentions to rename Mount McKinley,the tallest mountain in North America, to “Denali.”
