Since I cannot respond in my "Ramblins" post, I'll quote your question here.

Mount McKinley was already renamed to Denali a few years ago. Was he that bad of a dude?
It had nothing to do with McKinley. The natives wanted the name changed to Denali (the historical native name) and Obama gave it to them. Jimmy Carter had already compromised and changed the name of the National Park to Denali, but that wasn't good enough.
