The Role of Manufacturing in South Bend's Decline

I had the privilege of spending last summer on my brother in laws farm on the outskirts of South Bend.It is a beautiful area with good people and it reminds me of where I grew up in mid east PA. Your very informative post could be any small towns USA story.I watched in disbelief as the people in Elkhart drank every bit of kool-aid that Obama served to them without even considering the fact that his record clearly is at odds with the RV and large equipment manufacturing businesses.Our culture has become an entitlement obsessed one and the voters gravitate towards the politicians who promise the most regardless of integrity or common sense. Only a change in the culture will bring the voters to their senses,that is coming but at great expense to our country.It will take concerned and motivated citizens like you to hold the line till this happens...Just watch your back for the DHS!
