39. Not policy-wise
I meant field a candidate with our liberal policies, but with a southern origin to keep them happy. Nowhere do I mention a candidate with conservative leanings to roll back civil rights. Bow to them regional-wise to satisfy the ones griping about the Us vs. them yankees. But don't bow them policy-wise on pro-choice, sepearation of church and state, etc.

A compromise needs to be struck to address both northerns and southerns. Thus, I think the easy viable choices are southern liberal, northern/californian conservative (Reagan), or a centrist moderate from either north or south. I want the southern liberal, since I would rather compromise on the region rather than the policy stance. Anything else, like a southern conservative or a northeastern liberal would be an uphill battle with considerably more risk.
