A small but visible contingent of Native American delegates and fellow activists will attend the Democratic National Convention to help shape the party platform, rally party members and showcase the Obama candidacy.

The Barack Obama campaign posted on YouTube the Democratic candidate's speech in Crow Agency, Mont., on the Crow Reservation.

Crows wait in line for more than six hours to hear the Democratic presidential candidate. 'Somebody finally recognized us enough to come an extra few hours,' says one tribal member.

Visiting Crow Reservation in Montana, the Democratic candidate for president pledges a new era of honest federal dealings with tribes.

At opening day of National Indian Gaming Association’s convention, dancers display the breadth of Native culture and the resilience of Native traditions, while an “all tribal fundraiser” brings out a possible Obama vice presidential running mate.

This is what it's like to shake hands with Sen. Barack Obama, especially after thinking you blew your chances of meeting the Democratic presidential candidate by showing up late for his speech.

Special Report: As more Native voters turn out for the presidential primaries and caucuses—as they did in Wyoming—tribal leaders and political activists in Indian Country want more attention paid to Native concerns.
