A sad commentary on we, as a people, and our viewpoint of our freedom can be summed up like this. We have liberals and conservatives, Democrats and Republicans, yet those very people look at Constitutionalists as radical and extreme.................so those liberals and conservatives, Democrats and Republicans must believe that the constitution is radical and extreme.

Get Off My Lawn
Bullshit. I live in a rural area that has become more populated over the years I've lived here. A few minorities have moved here and I get along with them just fine. I have a large back yard and I allow some of the local kids to play football there. It's funny kids aren't racist when they play football because there are also minorities who play with them. I don't care if they play there, as long as they understand I'm not responsible if they get hurt.Told you …
Interesting how nobody ever goes and studies rural BLACK folk..it’s like they don’t exist.
A Princeton sociologist spent 8 years asking rural Americans why they’re so pissed off
Hint: it’s not about the economy.
Robert Wuthnow, a sociologist at Princeton University, spent eight years interviewing Americans in small towns across the country. He had one goal: to understand why rural America is so angry with Washington.
So I decided to speak with Wuthnow about what he learned and whether fears about America’s “moral decline” are really just a cover for much deeper fears about race and demographic changes.
In the book, you argue that the anger we’re seeing in rural America is less about economic concerns and more about the perception that Washington is threatening the way of life in small towns. How, specifically, is Washington doing this?
Robert Wuthnow
I’m not sure that Washington is doing anything to harm these communities. To be honest, a lot of it is just scapegoating. And that’s why you see more xenophobia and racism in these communities. There’s a sense that things are going badly, and the impulse is to blame “others.”

Lol! Hint. It ain't the economy.
Common sense is not a gift, it's a punishment because you have to deal with everyone who doesn't have it.

Once in a while you get shown the light, in the strangest of places if you look at it right.

Same goes for trump. Overwhelmingly, Americans didn't vote for trump.

Yes that's true, perceptions are often without corroborating data or evidence all the time ... some people even die from them.

And those perceptions are not presented as "research", because like the article cited, they are not.Yes that's true, perceptions are often without corroborating data or evidence all the time ... some people even die from them.

It's myth, division creation by the democrat party to gin up votes. Racism while a serious issue has been diliuted by political hats using it as a bat against people.
Not Like You
how can you decide to not vote for the democrat and still not be a racist?
That needs an explanation for yo?

From outside, the question of racism seems to depend very much on its sources. In most of Europe, it was a way of defending imperialism, so that the racism was always mixed up with notions of raising up these inferior people to our level (i.e. when you think about it, it was not about 'race' in the long run). In the 'States it was about the defence of the indefensible, slavery, and thefore had to be driven in much deeper. If you add to this the obsessive competitiveness between American 'national' groups, with its desperate need for someone to be 'bottom', you can see that racism will be hugely deeper-rooted. Naturally, the more progressive parties, the ones with contacts with outside civilization, will tend to be the less racist, the Republicans originally but more and more later, the Democrats. Pity socialism grew so slowly over there, or you might be quite civilized by now!

liberal clusters mean nothing in an electoral system such as ours.

Bro, colored people is an offensive term/slur. You're dating yourself. And you too Owl.
People of color is the more acceptable/less offensive term used today.
Edit: And even P.O.C. is considered offensive by some
