If that means we southerners can lay claim to Sam Clemens as one of our own, then I'm inclined to agree with you.

The original post's thesis is fair enough. I just got through explaining that Mizzou is a Midwestern state with definite Southern influence in certain parts (before I saw this). I think the OP is fair enough in his description here. Tho' I would advise the OP that every non-Southeastern/those who don't originate in the traditional South (VA, NC, TN, AL, GA, Miss, FL, SC, LA*) are subject to question. Even other traditional members of the Upper South like KY come down to where in KY one is from. The same for MD and by-God-West Virginia!

*Louisiana though southern has always been in a league all it's own.

We could already do that given his connections to Tennessee as well as the fact he was likely conceived here.
