Don't worry your little mind,honey. The President of the United States has done pretty well for himself after being transplanted to Texas which is a close enough neighbor to the South to have him "misunderestimated" regarding his mental acuity, and he continues leaving his opponents in a state of confused defeat at the end of the day. You must learn to be gracious, like your mama said, and allow them to believe that they know more than we do, bless their hearts.
Texas IS part of the south!
Southern by birth, Texan by the grace of God!
