W was born in Connecticut
W and his father were yankees, moving to Texas doesn't make you a Texan.
There is a reason that W and his father were RINO’s in many ways, it's because they were both transplanted yankees pretending to be something they weren't.
Bush bought that just months before the 2000 election, and as soon as he was no longer president he moved to Dallas. The only thing that surprised me is that he even bothered to stay in Texas.
It was all a dog and pony show to fool people (like Kerry riding a sailboard)
