Nothing personal but it’s more than that

The sort of folks who settled Iowa and the rest of the upper Midwest have proven to be less socially conservative for any number of reasons

Lutheranism maybe

Germanic and Scandinavian affections for such cultural mores

Hell I don’t know but 51% whites in Iowa voted In 2012

10% of whites in Alabama voted Obama in 2012

You’re welcome to tell me why you reckon this is

It also explains why the GOPe and libs and media are purging my heritage as we speak

And some Freepers assisting

I’ve lived in Iowa. Few individuals and a large sheep mentality. They are quite subject to the old media manipulation.

A good portion of those settlers were ‘48ers. European radicals who fled Europe when their attempted revolution failed. Marx and Engels were fellow ‘48ers who planted themselves in London.
