"My family has been here since the late 1600's. America is imprinted in our heart and soul. We just happen to be everyday, run-of-the-mill Americans who recite the Pledge of Allegiance with a southern accent and have always lived in the South."
That speaks for my folks too.
I lived out of the South for two years when I was young.
But I never left the South because my heart was still here.
I must say that I love to read what Bryan and Alan both have to say when they speak from the heart.
Now those are my opinions.
