This is exactly why we need a (non-ideologically captured) ACLU to come back from the dead.

What is good for Minnesota may not be good for Florida.

Folks in the Blue belts really should learn something about diversity of opinion. We do not want a monoculture in this country. Our diversity is one of our greatest assets. This is why the constitution was written to provide for greater powers to the states. It allows for a more diverse nation and better control of local issues by the people most affected. The founders were wise indeed. They had endured and escaped monoculture, and formed a more perfect union.

I'm pretty sure "those Reds" already know this.

Take a look at the demographic breakdown of those "blue" outposts. How about Martha's Vineyard for example? Then compare with just about any city in the South. You tell me who really practices diversity rather than just talking about it.

Cultural issues are best either left to the states or left alone.

Yes, this comment from Obama (echoed by Biden and other Democrats) is repellent to me. Culture is organic, natural and must always be left to the people.

Government at its best takes care of essentials such as infrastructure and law enforcement. If it would do that well, and leave the rest to the people, there would be little need to even discuss politics, much less fight over it.
