    If you look at the facts the Native Americans move to North America 35,000 years before any white man lived here.The Cherokee families resisted in the intire state of Tennessee. Cherokee had other small villages in other states. You wonder how many native people that walked across a land bridge coming from Asia and Siberia. Lot more information

    WAKE UP!!! The "Native" Americans weren't native first of all. Second they are honest about that and that the race of white people who they killed to take this land built them. Actually Indians were afraid of the mounds and steered clear of them. Anyone that does any type of real study finds all of these things out fairly easily. So anyone still peddling this "Noble Savage" narrative is either lazy or a liar! Hence the immediate contradiction in the beginning of this video. The noble, nature loving Indian didn't possess land like the bad white man but then tell of how they murdered each other for thousands of years before Europeans arrived. Please reconsider your position, actually do the work and issue a correction video please, thank you! You don't owe it just to me but everyone and all those that came before us. They were actually brave & noble men, women & children.!

    The arrowheads were made for digging. Hunting is a myth. All the land in Ky Ohio Indiana and prob all the states has been completely designed by the indians. Even the small creeks were made from indians. The roads we use are the old indians trails they designed. Go to towns by rivers or big creeks and drive the backstreets with the historical houses and most are built on indian mounds and have concrete steps going up to the house. Any creek i drive over has a mound or earthwork withing a 1/8 of a mile of the creek. These hills by creeks are all indian made. Its massive and Ky should have a 200 mile tourist attraction instead of wiping it under a rug like it doesnt exist

    Personally, I think both of you have a very interesting channel however, I don't think that either one of you are knowledgeable enough. It doesn't appear that you can make a statement without having the other one be your "fact checker". You should know the subject that you are discussing 100 % and be totally comfortable discussing it.

Widow Helen Albright goes there, she’s in her 90’s. Don’t remember her late husband’s name, but delivered oil for RH and Audrey Hamm. Her son Lynn just died a few months back. Her daughter Joy is married to Ronny Todd.

    Odd question. Europeans got lost looking for a passage to India; bumped into the Americas and were surprised (I guess) to discover there were other human beings inhabiting large continents. There were no “states”, no places with the names colonists decided to give the land taken from people already living in those places. Such an odd question. Which specific county or current street address the indigenous populations called home we will never know. However, perhaps where ever they pitched their tent was home in any of the now, 120 defined counties of Kentucky. And which Indo-European language group gave us the Kentucky?

    mMy evperiences with unions wasn't good. The first was at a Defense plant. I was treatned by the ubion stward, my firs day o te job. I was in QA, which was non union. I was told that she would et ne fred, if I toched any tools. When the next president was electeted, she told me, 'We're going to bring this place to its knees!' I asked if she knew why most assebly was done in our plabt in Mexico. It was obvious that she didn't even know that it existed. I told her it was opened during the last strike, and that the ocal union members gave up vacation paym and acepted lower gourly pay to keep their jobs, It would be quite eass to send their wok to the othe facility, leving just R&D, QA and the offices in Cibcinnati. One evening their supervisior ased if he could 'borrow me' to help with a problem. The union stweard was glaring as I demobstrated how to do a tricky soldering operation. There were two boardsm so I picked up the second, "Lsies? I'm pnly going to show you one more time! and did it. Finall a bew assembler took the screws out of the cover if a very complex gearbox , and let allthe gears fall out. I was ealking by to take my breah, and asjed what was wrong. I shrugged looked at the fears and reassmble it correctly the first time. Once again, the Union Steward was glaring at me. The OBEW tried to unionoze a Cable TV cmpany I worged for. Theu pronissed us less vacation, lower pay and other benifets that we already had. Then I was told that the company would hve to split our work up into ndividual vcatagories. Installers couldn't do repairs, My work would be split between five people,, By the time you added the union dues, I would have lost a little over $7,000 a year, in the mid '80s.

    Proclamation- By the President of the United States In regard to Texas Annexation and War with Mexico: “The enterprise to invade the territories of a friendly nation, set on foot and prosecuted within the limits of the United States, is in the highest degree criminal, as tending to endanger the peace and compromise the honor of the nation. And therefore I expect all good citizens, as they regard our national reputation, as they respect our laws, and laws of other nations, as they value the blessing of peace and the welfare of their country, to discourage and prevent, by all lawful means, any such enterprise, and I call upon every officer of this Government, civil or military, to use all efforts in his power to arrest for trial and punish every such offender against the laws providing for the performance of our sacred obligation to friendly powers.” Undersigned, President, Zachary Taylor on August 11th, 1849 -From the book, “War with Mexico Reviewed” By Abiel Livermore
