Ok, so 25 and 29 years ago for Reagan. What can you tell me about the congressional representatives and Governors from the northern states?

While you're at it, please explain why our fighting forces are disproportionately represented by southern fighters and underrepresented by northern fighters?

November 7, 2005 Who Bears the Burden? Demographic Characteristics of U.S. Military Recruits Before and After 9/11

http://www.heritage.org/research/nationalsecurity/cda05-08.cfm "The South is overrepresented among military recruits. It provided 42.2 percent of 1999 recruits and 41.0 percent of 2003 recruits but contained just 35.6 percent of the population ages 18 - 24."

"In addition to confirming the strong Southern military tradition, we also found an exceptional ten­dency for lower than average military participation in New England."
