Carpetbaggers Nearly All

Posted on September 4, 2003 in Gray Davis Recall

Another way to look at the candidates (including two former candidates):

Name	Place of Birth
Cruz Bustamante	Duniba, California
Peter Camejo	Queens, NY
Gray Davis	New York, NY
Ariana Huffington	Athens, Greece
Darrell Issa	Cleveland, Ohio; Lebanon? *
Senator Tom McClintock	White Plains, NY
William E. Simon Jr.	Spring Lake, N.J.
Arnold Schwarzenegger	Thal, Austria
Peter V. Ueberroth	Evanston, Ill.

This list certainly puts a different slant on the men and women eager to seize the state’s highest office from Gray Davis: all except one was born elsewhere.

There’s a word for this: carpetbagging.

The only man who was actually born in California is the one the Nuts and Sluts Factory is most out to destroy (after Gray Davis, of course): Cruz Bustamante.

This California Native isn’t going to be hoodwinked. I’m voting for my own in the recall. The rest of them can just go back where they came from. Let a Californian govern California.
