I'm heartened to know you go into urban neighborhoods and interview the Blacks you meet there. Not sure what your point is however?Not really I ask blacks all the time if they belive in free speech they say yes.. soooo American culture is wideIt was industrialization that created urbanization. Rural areas cover 97 percent of the nation's land area but contain 19.3 percent of the population (about 60 million people). The way our government is structured they are a very powerful minority.Many things consumers need are being built in rural areas.. the hub of free people is what created our American cities no handoutsThis is true across the nation. Rural voters want to live free of government while urban voters want government to provide the services they require. Unfortunately for rural voters, the jobs, and therefore the people, are in the urban areas, at least for now.Virginia has a massive rural-urban divide. The urban areas are getting bluer and the rest of the state is getting redder. It all comes down to population density.
