Probably because it's relative to the population of the state & the black population is higher in the south compared to other places.

Reply to comment by crono141 in Eli5....can you dig a well anywhere and hit water...and how did the early ranchers in the West know where to dig for water. Especially in the really dry areas? by pinkshrinkrn
There are people out there who believe in this shit so much that they'd trust their job with it. I worked with a foreman who believed he could locate buried utilities like phone lines, power lines, water pipes, etc... with some dowsing rods he made out or #4 copper wire. Sometimes he would even second guess the locators markings & dowse them just to make sure. Those guys use specialized machines to locate buried utilities. I never had the heart to tell him & I just played along with it.

His presidency pretty much ended OCT 2016. Thats when turnover starts with the next president.

2008-2016 shows a dip below the mean, those are also the years Obama was president.

For this to be true, you'd have to be using an extremely loose definition of "decent and empathetic."
