Sorry if Germans...but what the hell...let the locals call it Denali if you want, but quit being so freakin' PC with everything.

Mt. McKinley to be renamed Denali

Meh, if it's what the Alaskans want, they should have it.

It was named McKinley by some guy from Ohio.

how is it PC? Alaska has been trying to change the name for years, it took the Department of Interior to do it.

Named after McKinley before he was elected president. A shame he was assassinated though.

It was called Denali before it was called Mt. McKinley, Alaskans have petitioned for it to be renamed back to Denali for decades, and yet you retards still find some reason to hate on this simply because "Obama"

I hate you people

You gotta link to support that specious claim?

I've heard of McKinley all my life but I never heard of "denali" before some bleeding heart America-hater tried to change the name. More PC bullshite.

Why would you name a mountain after a luxury package for vehicles?

It's pretty much known as Denali in the mountaineering world. I think it should definitely be Denali.

So we should just let Alaskans name American mountains now?

Sorry for loving my country, but American mountains should have American names.

Like Mt. Driskill, now that is an American name, and by far the most impressive mountain......

I don't like the man but yeah, this is literally the only reason people are mad about the name change. Hell, the park name was changed to Denali National Park back in the 80s.
