[QUOTE="Lurker66, post: 1987150, member: 24459"] We have lots in common with the N East and California. The may talk different, eat different foods and be socially liberal. But they are just as American as anyone else. You say we think differently, how so? How are their values different than ours? Hows their idea of family any different than ours? Ask a "yankee" these questions, you'll see we're really not different on things that matter. Now heres a serious answer to your question. Culturally, we're different, Politically, we're different but what do we Okies citizens have in common with the Yanks? 1. National Security 2. Interstate Commerce 3. Respect for Local, State and Federal Laws 4. Representation at State and Federal level 5. Ability to vote 6. A court system 7. Bad roads I cannot say it better than Lincoln did with his Gettysburg Address. Read that for a refresher. [/QUOTE]
