Ronald Reagan was from Illinois not California.

Holden 27

Originally, yes, but California became his adopted home, and he was elected governor there twice.

Likewise the Bushes aren't from Texas, but it is their adopted home. --Angr/tɔk tə mi 22:48, 25 Jun 2005 (UTC)

W Bush is from Texas. H.W. Bush is definitely a New Englander. He represented Connecticut and has strong ties to Maine.

W Bush isn't from Texas. He was born in Conn. Likewise, H. W. Bush is a New Englander from Mass.

Arkansas is not mentioned as being in the Sun Belt, yet Bill Clinton is included as having come from a Sun Belt state. (Arkansas probably has an arguable case for being in the Sun Belt, but it is neither mentioned in the article nor included on the map.))

Wilson wasn't the only president raised in a Sun Belt who held office prior to 1964 as Andrew Jackson was born and raised in South Carolina.

The Bush family moved to Texas when George W. was three years old. That qualifies him as being from Texas.

[edit] What?

How come Louisville, Kentucky be included in the sun belt while Nashville, Tennessee or Denver, Colorado get excluded? If any no one can explain this, I'll delete the Louisville link.

I removed it. If nothing else, it is very far from the zone shown on the map. Pfly 10:15, 13 February 2007 (UTC)
