There is at least one white Southerner who tries to understand. My family has been here coming up on 400 years and most of the time we have treated those different than us in a shitty way. Changed with my Father.

Some of us know that ‘progressive’ and ‘populist’ means something different in Louisiana than it does in Wisconsin. I am a proud Liberal!

You have a great evening and enjoy our southern win.

Take care.
