Good in-depth article, IMO.

A mildly interesting article. Any article about Tennesseeans in Presidential politics that does NOT mention the greatest contribution of a Tennessean to the Constitution is marginal at best. To wit, Andrew Jackson's famed (and insufficiently emulated) comment regarding the unconstitutional overstepping of the judiciary:

''Marshall (Chief Justice of the USSC at the time) has made his ruling. Now, let him enforce it.''

Fiff time is a charm.

Poor Gore, the only Candidate with the distinction of losing his home state cost him the election.

"I think we raise people in Tennessee with the responsibility to serve and to lead." Wamp said.

Really Zach? Ever heard of the Tennessee Waltz, Zach? And, what exactly qaulifies you to be a leader? Is it the fact that you never graduated college? Is it your shady employment history, your history of cocaine abuse or the fact that you are such a good fence sitter? You lost me and many of your constituents in your district when we were faced with eminent domain rights being given to a private, for profit company that tried to sieze our homes and land while you sat by and did nothing. It's a good thing the districts were rearranged or you'd be back in Chattanooga flippin' burgers, pal.

Tell us, Zach, what exactly qualifies YOU to be a leader? It's got to be more than just the fact that you were raised in Tennessee......
