He really needs to bridge that gap.<BR/><BR/>Concerning Appalachia, check out this <A HREF="http://www.dailykos.com/images/user/28416/map1.jpg" REL="nofollow">map</A>. This represents the 22% of counties which voted more Republican in Tuesday's election. It's a lot of Appalachia. I really want to see some outreach in that area of the country by this administration.Bonnie Prince Charliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05384657968503744571noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3669412675139526125.post-66208951723717525152008-11-06T11:33:00.000-06:002008-11-06T11:33:00.000-06:00Tribalism is an interesting concept.

Obama's new pick "Immanuel" is a honorary member of this rogue TRIBE.

I am happy for him that he was elected.

I live in Starkville MS, and while I myself appear to be a member of the tribe, I do not share many of their beliefs. <BR/><BR/>I think your hypothesis has a lot of merit. Many of the tribal members are Southern Baptist, as this is the state religion of the ex-Confederacy. Others sympathize with many SBC beliefs.Starkville Bible Studenthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07775879990288027298noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3669412675139526125.post-50552514476741609922008-11-05T21:39:00.000-06:002008-11-05T21:39:00.000-06:00And still, no one speaks about the Native American...And still, no one speaks about the Native American---schnauzer, or no schnauzer in the White House.<BR/><BR/>Why?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
