Proper nounSingular Texas Plural - Texas
Derived termsFrom Wiktionary under the GNU Free Documentation License. The culture of Texas has been a melting pot of the "Southern" (Dixie) and Southwestern (Anglo-Mexican fusion) North American culture, with pockets of colonies of ethnic groups in and around metropolitan and other urban areas while the entire Rio Grande River valley, and increasingly other areas to the east and north of it, have been re-mexicized due to recent migration and high birth rates (accompanied by "white flight") among the ethnic Mexican population. All of this is due to Texas' geographic location and settler past in the United States' history. The state of Texas is a diverse ethnic-origin state predominantly due to international migration before and over its history, while at the same time very North American, and an international place to live, in part because of its many oil industries. Texas also has an influx of people from the central United States moving in to find oil. Kansas, Oklahoma, Missouri, Michigan, Nebraska, North Dakota, and South Dakota have experienced a "brain drain" as their university graduates move to Texas to find employment.

Q. How is the public s general acceptance of capital punishment in Texas related to the state s dominant political culture? Asked by Ednaa - Sat May 31 03:25:29 2008 - - 2 Answers - 0 Comments A. What is the state's dominant political culture? Texas is historically a state that has voted Conservative Democrat. When the Democratic party turned liberal many Democrats jumped to the Republican party. Most Texans, like most Americans, support capital punishment. I know lifelong Democrats who have argued in favor of it far more fervently than most Republicans--and I have lived in Texas nearly 40 years. I think you will find that the anti-capital punishment movement is largely by liberals and few conservatives of either party support it. The Libertarian party generally is against it. I am a moderate Republican who generally supports capital punishment but would favor more options--such as life without parole--for capital offenders.… [cont.] Answered by Warren D - Sat May 31 03:34:46 2008 From Yahoo Answer Search: "texas" Texas is the second-largest U.S. state in both area and population, and the largest state in the contiguous United States.
