Great new source for gaming, Prop 5, political, & general Native American news
If you would like to continue to follow the news regarding Native Americans in California, likely including court challenges of Proposition 5, I have set up 4 automatic search links below to get the latest news. The search results will be general, but can be customized at the other end of the link:
1. Latest SF Chronicle & Examiner search for stories with the term "Indian"
2. Latest Excite search, query = Indian +California (news@bottom)
3. Latest Capitol Alert/Nando News Index search, query = Indian California (all)
4. Latest Las Vegas Sun search, query = Indian
(Almost all mainstream articles use the term "Indian" thus making it the best term for searches.)
