[QUOTE="HDRider, post: 1070777, member: 17025"] I would argue that two distinct nations are evolving in the US, those with a rural perspective (typically small government conservatives) and those with an urban perspective (large government progressives). I think we see this driving our political races and our method of governing. Look at the Virginia Governor's race as a good example of that. Along the same lines as the [i]"news"[/i] article... I read this book back in the eighties. [u]The Nine Nations of North America[/u] is a book written in 1981 by Joel Garreau. In it, Garreau suggests that North America can be divided into nine nations, which have distinctive economic and cultural features. He also argues that conventional national and state borders are largely artificial and irrelevant, and that his "nations" provide a more accurate way of understanding the true nature of North American society. Paul Meartz of Mayville State University called it "a classic text on the current regionalization of North America" [url=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Nine_Nations_of_North_America]http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Nine_N ... th_America[/url] [/QUOTE]
