Persistent Vandalism and defwarn of Chad Smith Article by Johnc1 and www.cornsilks.com sockpuppets

Constant deletions of 'negative' views of Smith persist on this article. He is not all "sugar and sunshine" a controversy sectino has now been added with the appropriate sites from news articles. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Skeele (talk • contribs) 19:33, 2 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Allegations of two wives

NO information supports the claim of Chad having two wives. He has a wife and an ex-wife.--BradPatrick 19:07, 18 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Chad only has one wife, but he has 'staggered' sets of children. he admitte this in an interview in the muskogee phoenix during the '99 campaign. sites have been added.

Oh yes, praise be to the casinos

Steady economic growth from the casinos. The casinos have been nothing but a boon. Everybody put on a happy face about it. It's not like the casinos play havoc with the job market, attract crime, or reduce our heritage to being little more than a tourist trap designed to fleece unsuspecting travelers. Not a word of how this man's policies have negatively affected the tribe at all. So much for NPOV on this article. I'd edit it, but it'd probably end up being filled with a political diatribe on Smith's policies toward the descendants of slaves, the lack of understanding of the basic concept of citizenship, not to mention the elitism and exclusivity of the current council. If there's someone who is unbiased and cares to make the article look less like it was written by a PR rep and more like an NPOV article, please do so. I'm too hotheaded to make that change myself. 24.254.163.150 (talk) 21:48, 15 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Where are the WikiEditors?

This article is a factual and grammatical disaster. It is by far the worst written and formatted article that I have encountered on Wikipedia. How are the many outside links allowed and clearly partisan viewpoints allowed to stand? Uyvsdi (talk)Uyvsdi —Preceding undated comment was added at 07:38, 28 December 2008 (UTC).[reply]

Education

In part, his education is listed as "Juris Doctorate from the University of Tulsa." In fact, the degree is titled Juris Doctor, not Juris Doctorate, and it is NOT a doctorate, nor is the holder of such degree entitled to use the honorific title of "Dr" before their name.

A Juris Doctor degree is in fact a professional doctorate, although as you say a Juris Doctor who calls him/herself "Dr." is regarded as rather over-the-top; I've corrected the item in the article. --Orange Mike | Talk
