Zitat des Tages über Südländer / Southerner:

When Kennedy could not get the civil rights bill passed - and he was the big liberal - Lyndon Johnson came in and it got passed, and he was the conservative and the southerner.

I grew up in the age of discount air fare, and for me, the act of joining a culture was a great way about learning about that different culture.

I'm a Southerner - I never take satisfaction in touching a nerve.
