>> Do you live in the U.S. and do you vote ?
I do! I proudly live in the US, which I would gently remind you is a REPUBLIC — a FEDERATION of state units.
It is by the several states’ electoral votes that the POTUS is elected. Typically — almost exclusively, in fact — in a winner-take-all manner.
I, and my state, voted for NEITHER Obama NOR Clinton. In any of the four elections in which they were candidates.
TEXAS is much more part of the SOLUTION to the screwed up mess that is the US, than it is the problem.
NOT SO!! for states like California, New York, Illinois, and, yes, Arkansas. Those blue or purple states are part of the PROBLEM.
Whether or not you want to admit it, people of various characters tend to end up in the various states, sorted out by political preference. Political units (such as states) do not attain their political status by some arbitrary random “raining” of people into them. Over time, people gravitate to places based upon their character and their ideals and their ambitions.
Facts are facts. I can read and think and analyze so yes, I can see all too clearly exactly where those facts are leading us.

Arkansas gave us Clinton, Texas gave us LBJ.
As long as you feel the need to ‘point fingers’.
Besides, I can think of much worse places than Arkansas.
