And you are right. So what? Are you intending to vote for them? You are assuming they "are blind in their support". Rather presumptuous actually. Perhaps the history of the past affects them in ways you care nothing about.
Frankly, the same "The South will Rise Again" mentality that still exists, to a degree, in the South, seems not only to be "in play" but "at the helm". They should get over it, but they can't, you see, for they are stuck on blind.
The past has no effect on them whatsoever, EXCEPT that which their pettiness forces on them. It'a a force ONLY in their "stuck on blind" minds. Forget about the Stars and Bars, forget about Jefferson Davis and Robert E. Lee, forget about the CSA and secession and look FORWARD, rather than back at the runway behind you. Those that have, or will, will reap the benefits. Those that won't, will hold up not only themselves, but the rest of the state as well.
As far as being blind in their support, you asserted that yourself due, as you state, to events before WWII. I didn't presume it, you asserted it.
