we are better in the midwest?

On my 40 min walks to work I have a lot of time to think about random things. A lot of the time it has nothing to do with anything and I just phase in and out, but sometimes my thoughts have something interesting in them. I was thinking about something my friend mentioned to me and then I have confirmed on facebook. Almost every American I know here, Fullbright, Peacecorps or teacher is from the midwest. I know people from Illinois, a few from Indiana, Wisconsin, Minnesota and Michigan. I make up another of the Big Ten (sports reference) being from Iowa. I wonder if there is some correlation to all this, how people from the midwest really do care more? Maybe we actually do more than say we just want to help and we get out there and actually do try. This is probably just me boasting a bit about being from the midwest and having a small sample size to back up my statement, but it feels good. Its humorous that all the people from the coasts are "hip and modern" and usually more "politically involved" I say though, where are you? Are you back home right now working on America? Well I will say this, since I left the place you sure did let it all go to hell. Thats another biased comment with no facts to back it up but you cant say anything about it. Unless you read this, comment on it and then I will delete it... so ha ha I win. Anyways I was just thinking about this on the way to work today and it is very humorous that every American I meet here is almost always from the middle of America.
