Is this board a decent representation of our society? If not what portion do we represent here, using the broad brush we often use.
Is it just white guys with decent income and jobs?
Seems we are mostly conservative here, other than the typical outliers that exist in all groups.
I guess my point is, I can’t imagine any red blooded American male, who provides for his family and possibly others, logically voting for harris and/or any liberal right now. I just can’t.
The bolded part caught my attention. Decades ago, a huge percent of men were providing for and protecting their families. Today an ever decreasing number of men are getting married and having families to provide for...
I dont believe this forum is representative of America or even all men of America. Id wager most here are older men and not representative of all men. There are a handful of women here but even they aren't representative of American women.
I'm with you 450.. this is why I don't believe all the stories from the "liberal women" who are going to vote Kamala are doing so "because they vote outside of their husbands" as have been going rampant on various social media screeds.
Note all the stories have been "I voted X, because my husband told me to vote x".
There may be a few men out there that are _THAT_ controlling, but I dont' believe any of the women who were puttiung it on Social Media...
Hell, if it were true and their husbands _found_ their social media accounts...

It’s not a reflection of how people feel in “urban” areas across the country.
The divide in the country is male vs. female or black vs. white, it’s urban vs. rural. The folks who live in the cities believe they know what’s best for the Nation. If, however, you look at what their ideas have done to their cities, it’s obvious they’re not as smart as they think they are.
This dynamic isn’t just reflected in the South but across our Nation. No “State” in the country is actually Blue. They’re all Red States. Each with varying degrees of Blue Urban areas.
The more of a state’s population who live in urban areas, the more likely the state is Blue.
