Very thought provoking and well presented. In my pops town they lose most of the kids as soon as they leave for college or work. They call it the brain drain and North Dakota spends lots of money studying ways to reduce it.
In terms of the overall effect that small town perceptions have on the political process I can't speculate; a place like Kansas has few congressmen but it does have two senators and the electoral votes have an impact. I can see why voting in favor of farm subsidies is typical and I guess whoever can provide the most of that money is going to be popular. What about a guy who delivers in that way but maybe doesn't hold such obviously sympathetic views along what might be considered "Moral" lines? Would in your opinion that individual still be elected?
