 ICT [2004/06/28]  Nipmuc say BIA got the facts wrong
The BIA turned down two Nipmuc (or Nipmuck) petitions, one from the Nipmuc Nation headquartered in Sutton and the other from the Webster/Dudley Band of Chaubunagungamaug Nipmuck Indians, which split from the first filing in 1996.
Nipmuc Nation Chief Walter Vickers and Tribal Council Chairperson Fran Richardson Garnett, along with members of the council, met with the press shortly after taking the call from Principal Deputy Assistant Interior Secretary of Indian Affairs Aurene Martin.
The two groups had gathered in their separate headquarters to wait for the notifying phone calls from the BIA's Martin, which came June 18 after repeated postponements.

Martin Issues Final Determination to Decline Federal Acknowledgment
Neither the two percent of the members who descend from the Hassanamisco tribe nor the 53 percent who descend from the separate Dudley/Webster tribe is sufficient, based on precedent, to meet the requirements of criterion 83.7(e) for descent from a historical tribe.
The historical tribe with which the Nipmuc Nation group asserts continuity was the Hassanamisco, or Grafton, Nipmuc Indians of southeastern Worcester County, Mass.

 presidents..
Both Martin Van Buren, who had been expected to win the Democratic nomination for President, and Henry Clay, who was to be the Whig nominee, tried to take the expansionist issue out of the campaign by declaring themselves opposed to the annexation of Texas.
Polk, however, publicly asserted that Texas should be "re-annexed" and all of Oregon "re-occupied." The aged Jackson, correctly sensing that the people favored expansion, urged the choice of a candidate committed to the Nation's "Manifest Destiny." This view prevailed at the Democratic Convention, where Polk was nominated on the ninth ballot.
Henry Clay, Daniel Webster, and other Whig leaders proclaimed themselves defenders of popular liberties against the usurpation of Jackson.

 Martin van Buren
The Whig candidates were Daniel Webster of Massachusetts, who ran in the New England states; Hugh Lawson White of Tennessee, who ran in the South and Southwest; and William Henry Harrison of Ohio, who ran in the West.
Harrison was known as "Tippecanoe" because of his victory over the Shawnee nation at the Battle of Tippecanoe in 1811.
Having learned that modern politics required the nomination of a man who could appeal to the masses and that military heroes have such an appeal, they nominated General William Henry Harrison, who had made a remarkably good showing in the election of 1836.
