Ok, dammit. The guy was born in New Haven and educated at Yale and Harvard. He was in TX by opportunistic chance alone, not to be born, or to go to school at UT, A&M, Rice, or any other venerable Lone Star institution.
He moved to Texas at a VERY young age so I highly doubt he even remembers much as a kid about even living here.

But he's got a ranch, clears brush alot, and talks like a real Texan.
He talks like a Texan because that's where he grew up.

We have a former State Rep. here in Connecticut who was born in Germany and moved here when he was very young. He went to college (undergraduate and graduate school) in Washington DC. He vacations with his family in other states and other countries. He calls himself a "Connecticut" guy and no one argues with him.
