The Opinionated Texan

Due in part to centuries of societal transformations and political upheavals, Texas bred tenacious men and women with passionate opinions. Some claimed the Lone Star State as a birthright, others only briefly made it their home, but all were inspired by its vigorous disposition. As such, they communicated insightful positions about war, immigration, tariffs, education, taxes, foreign policy, race relations, and more. Embedded within their antiquated statements, we find a hint of contemporary themes and perhaps some answers to our modern issues. This is the collection of one hundred ten statements from former Texans.
