Generally agree. Except the fact that we are the minority and the Daves are the majority. Actually, it is more even. The Daves are half the country ... only. The reason Trump won was because our electoral system provides more power to the rural states. A person in Wyoming is worth more than a person in California. So, it is not as if everyone in the country is an ignorant evangelist and we are just the minority.
