Democrats being just a big city party for some groups but not others has already failed.

30. The modern economy has little use for people with no skills/infrastructure (rural America).

Some people in rural areas may have job skills for the modern, global economy; but few rural areas have them in sufficient numbers to attract businesses. Then there is the lack of a modern infrastructure to support and connect those businesses with the global economy. Few people seem to realize that, especially in rural areas, or else they would be bending over backwards to meet both of those requirements. Very few rural areas are actually doing that. They seem to think America can return to how it was back in the 1950s. That is never, ever going to happen. Until they wake up and start supporting candidates with sound job and infrastructure plans (Democrats) instead of hollow rhetoric and an no vision (Republicans), there is nothing we can (should?) do for them. We have led them to water since January 20, 2009. They have refused to drink.
