1. Looks like some of them are evolving.
And growing frontal lobes.

3. I do too.
He's got more guts (and a lot more smarts) than his close-minded friends. Good for him! :applause:

6. This guy could be from my town.
And he is an intelligent man with an accent. A true redneck, as least my definition of one, would not vote for a black man because they are seen by the red neck as being less intelligent, capable, and not even half as worthy of a white man. :eyes: I have dealt with these people and let me tell you that he may hang with them but just his being able to think for himself sets him apart from the usual 'red neck'.

Provo to him and to his courage to stand out there on the street. I heard a lot of cars honking as they passed and that is usually a sign of support, so I hope he is getting a lot of positive attention.

8. In Nashville Friday I saw 3 Obama bumper stickers for every one
McCain sticker including one in a pickup truck window right next to the Nascar and NRA stickers. Not all people are fooled by the McCain/Palin attack machine.

12. Do you live in Nashville?
I'm from there myself. From what I can gather, it's a solidly liberal part of the country, much less state.

the south has been sold on screwing themselves
it appears that this guy realizes that.

Good for him

14. Great story--I just love that guy.
What a huge trooper to not only support Obama, but to be so vocal when his friends don't agree. Standing on the curb and handing out stickers! WHAT A COOL GUY!
