How do we make sense of that?
Why does this country need to build this imaginary Indian?
Elvis is in here twice, 'cause he's Elvis.

Cher, of course.
And, uh, here we have Native American Barbie.
The Tomahawk missile is interesting, because it's been used in so many different conflicts.
So it's an ancient idea of taking on Native names for weapons.
