But Clinton wasn't born rich. Neither was Nixon, who came from a very humble upbringing as far as I know. You said you have to be born rich to become president. I was just showing that you don't have to be.

During the time of the Civil Rights movements, the most important thing about a lot of people's beliefs had nothing to do with their political affiliation but more of the region where they are from.  Southern Democrats at the time does not = Democrats
