This letter is associated with the following article:
What small-town America is saying about Obama In diners and mobile homes from New Mexico to North Carolina, I listened to working-class people try to make sense of a black president named Barack.
  • Grew up in a small town

    And this is very accurate. Obama MUST push his upbring down small town America's throats. The RNC knows just what buzz words make them afraid like "elitist" and "Un-Christian." You can't judge small town Americans for this any more than you can judge "city folk" for having higher pay and agnostic beliefs. We all want to align ourselves with someone we feel understands us. It is imperative that the Democratic party shows that they can be empathetic to the multiple cultures of America.
