I've heard several people from new england or new york say that the south was either not really American or that the south should not be part of america. Walter Cronkite said this, I saw him on tv saying it. The south is in fact much more american than either new england or new york. Perhaps that's why so many people like the south and are moving to it in recent times. The big waves of immigration from Europe between 1870 and 1925 did not settle in the south. The south is populated by people who are ethnic american, descendant from those who came before the civil war more so than any other region of the country. But bigots don't know that.
