Alabama w/Bham would produce what Georgia would produce w/Atlanta with a smaller population. Alabama 3.7 million Georgia 4.5 million.
Georgia without Atlanta would be a lot more stronger than Alabama without Bham. The second tier cities in Ga would have a higher population and GDP count.

South Carolina, even if it is Georgia with Atlanta.

I have met the friendliest and most kind hearted Americans in the state of South Carolina, god bless those people.

It's all fair game.

You don't know that but you're entitled to speculate I can't knock that.Hell W/out Bham Huntsville could have grown to the size of Nashville and Mobile the size of Nola. Now as far as what ifs lets use facts and current numbers. The what ifs based off of factual info are Alabama w/out Bham is 3.7 million Georgia w/out Atlanta 4.5 million. Alabama w/out it's Alpha has a GDP of 150 billion Georgia w/out it's Alpha is 157 billion.

I cant believe Kentucky has more votes than Alabama. Maybe because Louisville seems beloved on here.

I would expect such a sentiment from a homer. Nothing wrong with that, just goes to show the politics go both ways.
