Alaska

He is a champion to the Native Community and he treats people with respect. Both Mr. Young and Sen. Murkowski are hated by the true believers here in Alaska (Read~Tea Partiers).
He married a Gwichen woman and stayed true to her till she passed away just a few years ago. It's difficult to understand why he is so popular here unless you track his accomplishments.
He has funneled so much money into Alaska that has touched the lives of minorities and women, it falls on deaf ears when people call him a hater. When he appears at the Alaska Federation of Natives Conventions he always gets a heartfelt ovation.
He is quite the walking contradiction.
