From the Amazon product description:

In this tender, beautiful letter to his daughters, President Barack Obama has written a moving tribute to thirteen groundbreaking Americans and the ideals that have shaped our nation. From the artistry of Georgia O'Keeffe, to the courage of Jackie Robinson, to the patriotism of George Washington, President Obama sees the traits of these heroes within his own children, and within all of America's children.

Breathtaking, evocative illustrations by award-winning artist Loren Long at once capture the personalities and achievements of these great Americans and the innocence and promise of childhood.

This beautiful book celebrates the characteristics that unite all Americans, from our nation's founders to generations to come. It is about the potential within each of us to pursue our dreams and forge our own paths. It is a treasure to cherish with your family forever.

Seems to be about "Americans" as in American citizens, as it specifically talks about "our nation".

I got native american.

I got over 150 years of treaties the so called american government broke repeatedly.

I got a long line of Sitting Bull decendants being born on this soil... long before the europeans even knew about this continent.

I got promises made, promises broken, and a nation of native americans lied too repeatedly by this so called government simply for the purpose of gold. Lets not forget why BigHorn was fought.

I got Sitting Bull fought against the same tyranny that the US government declared against the British.

You want to view him as a non-american?

I think if he were alive today. he would thank you.

I, and many like me, view him as a true american hero in all the sense of the word.

Didn't Sitting Bull orchestrate the demise of the 7th Calvary, and the death of Custer?

I don't see a problem here.

The problem here, and everywhere for liberals, is the truth. The truth is that Sitting Bull did in fact orchastrate the death of a U.S. General (Custer), usurper POTUS Obama/Soetoro did in fact praise Sitting Bull in his children's book, therefore FOX News's "Obama Praises Indian Chief Who Killed U.S. General." was in fact the truth.

"Fair and balanced?"
I like to watch Keith Olberman on MSNBC. He's unbalanced.
I don't know how he thinks even lefties would believe him.
Us Independents do love a good laugh though!

Rule, I do. Do you know any Democrats? Why would you, you're not on their team.
Obama is kind of "right-wingish" right?
Now even George Soros is saying "we need to look elsewhere." lol

No kidding?

And here I thought all along that it was Custer that attacked and just didn't know what the hell he was doing.

Just out of curiosity, does anyone know the name of the native american who really did kill Custer?

And you are correct, Master Ron. Sitting Bull warned them not to come, repeatedly. That they were not moving off the land promised to them by treaty and moving onto a reservation as the government demanded all because a bunch of white men wanted the gold in the Black Hills. Honestly, this shouldnt even be a bone of contention considering how many people died for the greed.

Jimbo.

I think he was the son of Sitting Bull.

Was the specific native American "Sitting Bull" an American citizen at any time?

Firm

No. He was a member of the Lakota Nation (technically he was a Hunkpapa Lakota Sioux) and was fighting for that nation although not at Little Big Horn, that would be Crazy Horse. It is actually offensive to many Native Americans to refer to him as an "American."

Native Americans prefer to be called Native Americans... Not Indians... Not Native... Not Red Man... Definitely Not Injun... but Native Americans for that is what we are.
