Ben Chifley is the awesomest person to ever lead an Anglophone nation.

Napoleon is the awesomest person in world history.

But at the same time he's not which is what is so great about him.  It shows the only way the French can prevent themselves from sucking huge balls is to have a non-Frenchie as President

Tell me: What accomplishments of Davis' draw you to him?  Or is the knee-jerk Southern=antiliberal gag again?  Is there really anything of substance behind your confusing desire to be a part of a decidedly backwards culture?
Its not his accomplishments, its the fact that he stood for states rights to the fullest extent

DWDL, I can't help but notice you left off John C. Calhoun, who truly fought for state's rights.

He was a conformist, a racist, and an opportunist.
If so, that would just make him your every day run of the mill politician Tongue
