In Response To: Re: Welcome back (John D)

Thanks, John!

Reminds me of the classic quote by Davy Crocket...

In 1828, the little educated Davy would go on to be a Congressman where he supported the rights of Native Americans who were being exterminated as a result of Andrew Jackson's new Indian Removal Act. Because of his opposition to Jackson, Crockett was defeated when he ran for re-election in 1831. Crockett would win only once more-in 1833-before he would be defeated twice again.

It was during this time in 1834 that Crockett wrote a book titled, "A Narrative of the Life of David Crockett" and went to the East to promote it. Seeing that he probably could not win political campaigns any longer, Crockett parted the East by saying a phrase that, even today, still stands the hair on the back of every Texan's neck: "You may all go to hell, and I will go to Texas."
