           | Politicians like to make things personal! The last major

           | that people used to call Chinese people, and generally did
           | their level best to make people of Asian descent feel welcome
           | and celebrated. I'm just wondering if the same politicians
           | have that kinda love for Missouri. Ya know what I mean?

           | For some reason, klyrs thinks this is an interesting basis
           | for a conversation. I am self-aware enough to understand that
           | my own comment breaks HN guidelines.
