Who is, wants to be, a REAL American? Why do I ask this?

Well a real American is someone who's gggg grandparents lived here. WTF is all that about? Well its about SMALL town America. Originally all towns were small, America was small. Well living in and being part of a small town is not a piece of cake. Why?? Because EVERYONE knows everyone and everyone knows what you do, when you picked your nose, failed wash after you took a leak. Everyone knows what your gg grandfather/grandmother did and thinks you are the same misfit as they were. If you were gay, well everyone knows that, and you are excluded from the town, you are excluded from the community and anyone in it. If you were a liberal or conservative, you were a marked person, you either fit or did not. Inclusive, no way, you were either accidentally killed or moved out of town to destinations unknown. Weekly, monthly meetings of the townsfolk insured this. Religious? If you were not you were excluded from the town and all its activities, and even from marriage to most people in that town. This was the foundation of America.

Big cities started the secular movement. People moved to the big city for annaminity, to get lost in the crowd. This has been successful for many, but the small towns still exist and they will fight back.

Real America is now a compromise between the know it all small town and the big city. There are a lot more small towns than big cities. Who will win the hearts of America? I say the small towns. Why? Because they are still inhabited by people of the same zealotry that brought them to this country. People that risked all, life, liberty, family to come to a place where they could freely practice their religion and the rest of the small town practices that go with that.
