Until around the 60s, most southerners voted democrat for two reasons.

1) It was common to "vote as you shot". Many southerners voted for the democrats because the Union in the civil war had been led by the Republican Lincoln.

2) The Democrats at the time had many more conservative members from the south, mostly because of the first reason. Nowdays, the Democrats are a much more generally liberal party, but back then there was a mixture.

Does Mount St Helens lava flow violently or quietly?

Lava can't flow violently. Highly explosive eruptions such as the 1980 eruption of Mount St. Helens do not produce lava flows: they produce clouds of ash, gas, and pumice. Mount St. Helens has produced "quiet" lava flows at times.


What is a conservative Republican?

A Republican is a member of one of the two major political parties in the United States. Being a Republican usually means that you are conservative and anti-big government, at least at the grass-roots level. Unfortunately, those views do not appear to be reflected at the top of the party. Outside of the United States, a republican is someone who seeks or hopes for the end of monarchy. Within the United States, a Republican is someone who thinks that although his Party base includes both the most rabidly ignorant, violently xenophobic illiberals and the obscenely wealthy corporation owners who betray American working people to the Chinese, it still somehow can lay claim to a higher moral ground and truer patriotism than any other Party.


How does Things fall Apart show that change is inevitable?

'Progress' appears with the coming of Christianity and the European colonists. It is unknown whether this progress actually causes progress. In some ways, it rescues particular people from being shunned from the rest of the tribe, and provides them tools that they didn't have before. In other ways, it causes the previous civilization to fall apart.
