Well, I'm happily a hyphenated American, raised in the suburbs. I drink water, tea and fresh juices. I love the real futbol, the beautiful game. I love concerts and other shows. Fitness and healthy eating is part of my everyday life. I've had a passport since the age of 2. Everyone in my circles loves to travel.

I've lived in the suburbs, city and the rural U.S. There are positives about each but you can have your rural America. You can keep the real American title. To each his or her own. I much prefer my current life on a beautiful island. Nothing beats multiple beaches where the water is so clear, you can see your feet. Caribbean-American life...

What percentage of the population in rural areas are farmers?

If you wanna spend your whole life bobbing for apples, entering your prize pig in the fair, using your front lawn as your garage, and inflating the tires on your house....have at it.

If it ain't urbane and cosmopolitan, I want no part of it. While you watch NASCAR, I'm watching Formula One and laughing at you.
Then we have people like me and my friends. We enjoy all sorts of things from country fairs to concerts by the Philharmonic. Its funny you should mention Formula One and NASCAR. I have two female friends. One is a pediatrician and the other owns a marketing business. Both use their significant "play money" to go to NASCAR and Formula One. They'd probably laugh at the idea of "urbane and cosmopolitan." Enjoy all that life has to offer! Or step aside while the rest of us do.

Maybe you can link us to few of the tons of posts that are apparently out there , im not seeing it and its the first ive heard that not only are dems the enemy of the state but now city dwellers arent real Americans.Some one is having a great time destroying the moral fabric of the USA from within.You dont have to worry about North Korea or Muslims Americans seem to be doing a fine job of destroying themselves.

I used to love football. Then Art Modell took my football team and I saw it for the crony capitalist corporate welfare it is.

Classic car clubs do. Quite a bit. And they do it in cities.
