have been here for nine thousand years, from my Native America History university classes that I took around 1999-2000. Of course a candidate could say they have been there for a 1,000 years. I don't know their party, but they could very easily have an Alaskan history of 1,000 years. (Oral, or artifacts that have been handed to down family to family.)
