Thread Name: BS: the US STAMP
Subject: RE: BS: the US STAMP
You fellers are making me hungry for pratties! OK, so what country has not been stomped--OOPS I mean: 'stamped' by the USA gov't? I don't know the answer, but I do know that alot of Nations were "stamped." For example, the nations of my ancestors, the Choctaw Nation & Cherokee Nation. It wasn't really the people of the USA, it was the gov't. doing the "stamping."   There is a difference.

OK, I've got a trivia question for you!!
Q: From what Nation in America was the first foreign aid sent to another country on another continent?
A: The Choctaw Nation. A young Choctaw brave in the Oklahoma Territory heard about the people starving & dying due to a famine in a place called Ireland. The Choctaw people knew alot about starving & death, having lost most of their own people on the "Trail of Tears" and after been "settled" in the Oklahoma Territory. The Choctaw The boy collected $710 which was sent on to Ireland in 1847. In 1995, the President of Ireland traveled to Oklahoma & formally thanked the Choctaw Nation.
