What's the saying - no matter where you go, there you are?

I think that no matter what a person achieves in life, their childhood or upbringing is always with them. Have you ever known someone who grew up in the Depression, for example? That's been 70 years, but it is still a big part of who they are.

For good or ill, the things we experience as children come back to us again and again, consciously and unconsciously. I think it is completely fair for any politician to reference their upbringing. Just as it's fair for the public to decide what kind of an impression that upbringing seemed to have made based upon the person's life as an adult.
