I came from a big family... a big family of Southerners.

I'm a Southerner.

Every Southerner, I think, knows people like Bill Clinton, maybe not quite as smart and maybe not quite as liberal, but kind of a glad-handing, country-club yuppie Southerner. The problem is we don't have labels for middle-class Southerners.

I'm sort of a Southerner because those are my roots, but my parents are from Iowa.

I have a tight-knit Southern family.

My mom's side of the family is from Arkansas!

I'm a Southern girl.

Anything to do with the South resonates with me, because I'm Southern.

I also grew up on a farm in east Tennessee, so my roots are just naturally super southern, so I've always had that southern country lifestyle.

I was born and raised in the South, which is pretty conservative.
