I implore you to let go your bitterness as it does not become your positive nature. If you allow our adversaries to control your emotions, then you give them mastery over your very soul; you fall into the trap of ultimately becoming what you oppose and lose the best attributes that comprise your very essence. As I've come to know you, I have grown confident in your ability to see the good in any situation and your tenacity in conquering adversity, qualities that I admire very much in my friends. Difficult as the challenges ahead may be, the steepest mountains to be climbed do not originate from without, but from within. I am confident that you are worthy of these challenges and can overcome them, and offer a hand in friendship that we may walk this rocky path together and refuse to allow our adversaries to defeat our spirits. If your strength should falter, I will gladly offer a portion of my own, as I am doing now. Our incarceration will be difficult, but short; our victory will be hard-fought, but glorious. We will rise from the ashes of defeat and persevere to destiny. Die Wahrheit macht frei.
Industrial cotton was around urban centers for ease of transportation, the same map could be done marking higher percentage counties of welfare recipients...and, I think would be more apropo.
---------------------------------------- Obama: "It would be foolish, at such a critical time in our history, to pick people who had no experience."
New Commander In Chief of the United States:
"I think that the surge has succeeded in ways that nobody anticipated," Obama told O'Reilly in an interview taped Thursday in York, PA. "It's succeeded beyond our wildest dreams."
The point is that there is a strong correlation between areas in the South that previously produced large amounts of cotton and those that now voted for Obama. Why that is the case, what that means, and whether the implications are good, bad, or indifferent are some of the questions that immediately arise.

Had Barack run for president in 1860, and computers had been available for mapping voting results, and then plot the number of fires that would have spontaniously erupted during the campaign, I would predict that they would also match the same patterns as, districts that voted for Obama in 2008, cotton producing districts in 1860, and spontanious combustion during the 1860's.
But then, of course, the fires would not have been to discourage black voters, because there were no black voters in the 1860's.
How'd I do, Info?

If you get a map of hand gun violence and compare it to population density, the violence is not constant, but concentrated in certain neighborhoods.
That brown tint in WA state is not King county around Seattle, but Pierce county around Tacoma. My cousin did missionary work there, and the downtown hilltop neighborhood sounds like a shooting range. I think the inner city youths must be target practicing in the alley. If it were fights, they would all soon be dead.
