Mississippi is 37% black. I hope that there are enough decent Whites there to send that woman down to defeat.

(13,396 posts)9. I wish I could back up a quote I heard from southerner and Civil War historian Shelby
Foote. He said something like, "The people driving around with the Confederate flag on their trucks are a bunch of yayhoo's that should have never been born to see it fly."
He was on C-SPAN2 talking about his books and especially Shilo. It's in one of the videos they have archived but I don't know which one.
