I don't think so.

[Truth1954]

well Obama is going to be elected President no matter what the uneducated or racist people say about it. Obama for CHANGE!

[fortask]

The words you are using are horrible.

"filled with", "unimportant", "uneducated".

They may be poor, they may be not be able to go to college, they may be not as influential as the rich people live in other areas.

However, you cannot say that they are not important. They are part of America, they may have the same rights as you have, or any citizen of America have.

When you say this, I feel sorry that you fell into another expression of "racism" and "sexism", even foul than the visible forms.

[Truth1954]

most of the influential people in the USA live on one of the coasts, especially in NY city, Los Angeles, San Francisco, and Washington,D.C. So to do business etc you usually fly (from NY to LA for example). The states you "fly over" are the unimportant states often filled with uneducated or racist people that don't matter.

"Status anxiety" may have ruined many people's sanity, they fear to be considered as the "uneducated crowd" by supporting a good candidate. Also, the sense of "coolness" and peer pressure made many young selected the seemingly charming Obama.

I've watched most of the debates between the two candidates. Frankly speaking, Obamba's only shines in prepared speeches. When it comes to the real debate, his words are contentless and clamorous.

Thank you, Truth1954.

I would like to know about the flyover country areas, could you please tell me of which areas or states in US belong to this term?

Thanks.

[Truth1954]

in the USA there is a term called "flyover country". That means the part of America that is racist and uneducated. This part of the country doesn't really matter because the people there are backwards. But, for some reason, they still have voting rights and this is why the candidates visit those states and pander to the uneducated people. But in reality most in USA don't care for flyover country and important people live on either coast.

To Truth1954,

what about Mississippi,North Carolina, Indiana?

Same things happens, right? Race does count.

Nobody's willing to adimit that they are sexists or racists, however, many of them are.

If Hillary win, America says a BIG NO NO to sexism; if Obama win, America says a NO NO to racism.

Both choices are good.

As a citizen from East Asia, my heart goes for the lady. Hillary :)

Hillary, Hillary, Hillary.

you mean the engineers who make all the industries that emit CO2 that is killing all the plants and warming the earth so that NO ONE will be able to live soon? The increase murder rate of blacks (usually killing other blacks) shows that the racist system in the USA is very effective indeed. Vote OBAMA for CHANGE to this racist capitalist system! OBAMA 2008!

You've got to be freaking kidding me. How do you not pass high school?! The standards have been lowered so ridiculously low that you have to possess the work ethic of a freaking sloth not to pass. And as far as mindless "rout" instruction (whatever that is), modern industry is driven by engineers. What do you think they do? Hello, relevance! As for killing, you might want to look at the rates of murder by blacks in the US compared to whites. Or Nigeria or South Africa. Or domestic abuse.
