Those statistics were before major league baseball started organizing to
move the all-star game out of Arizona.

Arizona was also the only state that had the guts to dis Martin Luther King
Jr's birthday as a holiday.  Until the NFL moved the Super Bowl to Pasadena
from Phoenix.

Americans to apparently approve" anything if you phrase the question right.
