For countries without coasts, the corresponding divide is usually capital/other large city and rural areas. There are very few inland rural areas that are mostly or even modestly liberal and cosmopolitan (maybe recreational areas?). A major reason is simply lack of exposure to different cultures, livelihoods and ways of thinking and the corresponding lack of diversity in the rural economy. <br /><br />When climate change impacts really start impacting rural communities in the US, starting with a lack of water and the GOP does nothing about it, Democrats have to be out there yelling very loud about adaptation and mitigation measures for farming communities.Jimbohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13891331049535299222noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3856837.post-33247933628522190102017-01-26T20:42:51.068-05:002017-01-26T20:42:51.068-05:00If you understand what a null set is, you're n...If you understand what a null set is, you're not a real American.
