I think you misread what I typed. I did not say to call any Indian a Chief. I said to call an Indian Chief a Chief. An Indian that is already recognized as a Chief and has earned the position of a Chief.

Cardinals is a common mistake that is made when talking about the Stanford nickname.
The indian was removed as the Stanford nickname in the 1970s when some Native American Stanford students raised the issue.
