He also spent his youth in Indiana and pre presidential adult life in Illinois. So much more of a Midwestern hero than Southern.

yeah. that was my point was kentucky is like the closest you can get and it went neutral to union while everywhere else was definitively union. Long ago I worked at an archive and recently I saw some news about an org auctioning some artifacts and I kinda wonder if some originated there because I doubt the original org I worked for is still around. It like had just enough to hire the archivist and I was hired part time to assist moving things around. Definitely one of my better minimum wage jobs.
