How did Red Cloud view the "Indian Department" left in charge of reservation life?
A Red Cloud viewed them as corrupt; the department did little
to actually help the Native Americans, and instead they lied,
discouraged, and filled their own pockets with large salaries.
B Red Cloud sympathized; the department did what they could
to help but never received the funding supposedly set aside
by the U. S. government when they first agreed to live on the
reservations.
C Red Cloud blamed them for the massacre at Wounded Knee,
for if they had provided sufficient funds to the Lakota people
then groups would not have fled into the Badlands.
D Red Cloud viewed the department as wholly unnecessary;
he believed it was in the better interest of his people if they
continued their traditional lifestyles on the reservation
without interference.

1. read the following excerpt from franklin d. roosevelt's "fireside chat 19":

on the other side of the picture, we must learn also to know that guerilla warfare against the germans in, let us say serbia or norway, us; that a successful russian offensive against the germans us; and that british successes on land or sea in any part of the world strengthen our hands.

remember always that germany and italy, regardless of any formal declaration of war, consider themselves at war with the united states at this moment just as much as they consider themselves at war with britain or russia. and germany puts all the other republics of the americas into the same category of enemies. the people of our sister republics of this hemisphere can be honored by that fact.  

the true goal we seek is far above and beyond the ugly field of battle. when we resort to force, as now we must, we are determined that this force shall be directed toward ultimate good as well as against immediate evil. we americans are not destroyers — we are builders.
