Since the North produced Ronald Reagan, and Milton Friedman, as well as Walter Williams, let’s not get into regional rivalry. We have enough problems defeating liberals, now that large parts of the South believes in the free lunch.
Reagan was born in Illinois and moved to LA in the 30’s. Friedman and Williams are good guys, but they are economic conservatives. There is more in life than money; I know how hard it is for you country club Republicans to understand.
