That doesn't mean anybody cares about Ohio.

If Obama is able to piss off Ohio politics enough, it may be of a benefit to the GOP

Do Ohioans really give a rat's aft about Mt. McKinley or President McKinley? How many Ohioans even knew or remembered that McKinley was from Ohio before the Rage o' the Day club hit up Wiki in search of something to itch their butts?

I, for one, could not have stated where McKinley was from if I had been given 57 guesses.

Mt. McKinley is the highest mountain in the United States. Most consider it to be the second highest on earth

Who is "most"? Denali isn't even in the Top 100 mountains when ranked by elevation.

It's called a "joke". Lighten up, Francis.

It's the goofy link from the PP

Mt. McKinley is the highest mountain in the United States. Most consider it to be the second highest on earth. However, if you consider the actual "rise" of the mountain, from its base to its peak, McKinley is actually a much higher mountain than Everest, even though Everest reaches higher into the sky. This is because Everest sits atop the Tibetan Plateau which is already 17,000 feet above sea level. The mountain, itself, is an additional 12,000 -- putting its peak at around 29,000 feet (8,900 meters) above sea level. Denali, on the other hand, sits atop a plateau that is only 2,000 feet high and the mountain itself is 18,000 feet high, for a peak that is just over 20,000 feet above sea level

but if we are not talking rise and not peak above sea level, doesn't Hawaii win for largest mountain in the U.S.?
https://www.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mauna_Kea
Standing 4,205 m (13,796 ft) above sea level, its peak is the highest point in the state of Hawaii. However, much of the mountain is under water; when measured from its oceanic base, Mauna Kea is over 10,000 m (33,000 ft) tall—significantly taller than Mount Everest.

Fear not Obama haters!

When Trump becomes president, he will name it back to Mt. McKinley. Stupid Alaskans.

"President Obama wants to change the name of Mt. McKinley to Denali after more than 100 years. Great insult to Ohio. I will change back!" read the tweet, issued from the account of the real estate mogul.

Prediction: he'll rename it to "Donald Trump Presents: Mt. McKinley, the Donald Trump Experience."
