I am also a virginian. There is this famous quote :

To be a virginian either by birth,
marriage, adoption or even on one's mother's side, is an introduction to any state in the Union, a passport to any foreign country and a benediction from the Almighty God."
- from an old sampler

My wife's family has been in virginia since before the country was founded. They totally embraced me.

''it is built on courage, imagination, and the willingness to get the job done''

not sure about the wording of the last phrase, but it's close

what an excellent, well-performed speech!

Knocked it out of the park. I've been a Virginian during Kaine's political rise, this is why he never loses.
