Representation should only matter in the people, not land mass. Who gives a shit if 6/8 of the country's land mass is "red", when the number of people in those areas don't even remotely touch the number of people in the denser populated areas. Should Wyoming (582k) have more say because it has more land mass or should New York (10million) large population. It's about the populace, and it always has been. SO showing charts with all red means little to nothing in the grand scheme of things.

I disagree with all of this. Shocking right??

Education in inner cities is not significantly better than rural areas. the rest of your first paragraph is a simply ridiculous attack.

100 people in an inner city block have a far different concern than 100 people living in a rural mile. Both concerns deserve weight and consideration, the US tries to balance both through multiple checks and balances. It has served us well through the years, not letting one group dominate the others, by preserving representation through various paths. That is important if the US is to remain a united country.

I didn't state inner cities had better education. I said rural areas just didn't have access to better education, and they don't. You can see the classes offered in small 1a/2a schools compared to 4a-6a schools. Poverty and socio-economic status plays a part in the quality of education you receive and have access to.

The rest of that paragraph was straight up truth whether you think it's an attack or not. You do realize I live in the Bible Belt right? Grew up in a Christian home, went to a Christian school, have had friends/family that still have the same mindset and faith. Not sure why you find that so hard to believe that people will put their faith/religion as a priority above anything. (especially when it comes to voting)

Do tell me what far different concern inner city/suburban people have from rural people? The concerns are pretty much the same.

1) put food on the table for self and family
2) feel safe
3) Health

The lifestyles and culture is vastly different, but each human pretty much has the same concerns in life. That's the basic needs. Now, the means to how they are supplied could differ greatly, but not the concerns.

Yeah, we will disagree that a small minority of people's "beliefs" should outweigh a huge vast majority. It's not just inner city either, Arlington VA is a dense area, and highly populated. That doesn't mean it's inner city.

Just want to point out one small thing. As fucked up as it is that all people do not vote - they do not. If trumps people showed up than good for them. However voting polls do not necessarily reflect true numbers do they?

imo, polls generally are good but they can also be written to skew results. Assuming you have a well constructed poll, and the outcome surpasses the margin of error significantly, than that outcome is rock solid.

BUT, when you have polls that are less well constructed or even biased, OR, the results are close to the statistical margin of error, than those outcomes are shaky. They may tend to be statistically right, but the overall analysis of the outcomes probably will be more wrong then right, simply because the foundational truth (the poll result) is more subject to shifts in opinions.

I think trumpers felt more of an urgency to get out and vote. I think Clintons people thought it was in the bag and alot of them probably felt like it didn't make a difference if they got out.
#whoops. SAD!

I also think there were people who voted for Pres Obama, who didn't feel the same connection with HC. Mostly, this was, imo, black inner city males, but not entirely.

There were some pissed of Bernie supporters that voted for Trump as well just to spite the DNC.

Of course blacks do not relate to Clinton like they do Obama. However the vast majority certainly does not support Trump. Im not sure how accurately their numbers are represented on those maps, or how many of them voted?
Bottomline if you polled every citizen in our country there would be millions more who do not support him than that do.
None of it matters now. Let Captain Hellfire reign his Tweets down on the world. I suggest if you travel it that you leave your red hat at home. You might not get that table with a view if you wear it.
