12. How about we start pushing back against this decade long attack on the
culture of the cities.

We didn't start the culture wars but that was what was presented at the Republican convention. People aren't ambiguous about what we are fighting about here, it is same sex marriage, the assault on science and the attempt to justify political ideology on religious beliefs.

It has become axiomatic that we must have leaders that represent a rural America that doesn't exist. Even Clinton and Gore had to have 'rural' credentials. When was the last time somebody actually ran that professed a clear intention of representing the majority of people who actually live in metropolitan areas - John F Kennedy, almost 50 years ago.
