No, they don't count because they are completely drowned out by voices from the other side, some of whom are Indians, too. Thus the "some Indians take pride in the name" argument, true as it is, is irrelevant. Most folks don't or won't hear it. I'm not saying this situation is right but this is what is.

The noise from the change-the-name crowd will just get more deafening. We might as well cut our losses and change the name sooner rather than later.
