Wynona(sp?) LaDuke ran for VP with Nader in 2000 and/or 2004.
Although he never ran for president or vice president, the first Native American politician to come to my mind was Ben Nighthorse Campbell. Here: is what its author describes as a “very incomplete” list of Native American politicians.
Russel Means tried to get the Libertarian nomination one time, but he didn’t make it past the primaries.
I saw a Jacques Yves Boulerice listed as the presidential candidate of the Native American Party, but I can’t seem to verify he is a Native American.
