Are you guys aware that the Populist Movement of the late 19th century...
was the most democratic movement in the history of the U.S.? And it was born in the south, and spread quickly across the nation. Are you aware that regional and racial animosity brought it down?

Just something to remember as you bash us southerners.

1. yep. Free Silver, too.
Colorado had some populist govs.

I don't bash what the South has done, necessarily... only what's happening now. But then again, I bash the West for the same type of lunacy.

Stupid knows no region, no boundaries, no race, no wealth....
