No my point is that he shouldn't have been allowed to run for office outside of the state he was born in. With his views, I don't think he would have got very far in a run for governor of Georgia.A quick check of the map shows that Georgia was one of his electoral strongholds, as was Virginia.
Your argument doesn't hold up.

For President yes. If he would have run for governor in GA, no it wouldn't have worked. But wouldn't you, if you were wanting to gain votes in a particular area of the country build up the fact that you were a native of that region? I imagine many of the folks that did vote for him down here, did so in the hopes of putting a Southerner into the seat once held by the northern tyrant not fully knowing his political views
