You haven't met the heartland, or the people who will defend this nation with their bloody, calloused, bare hands, if that's what it takes.  You haven't met the steelworkers and the hard-rock miners, or the swamp folks in Cajun country who can wrestle a full-grown gator out of the water. 

You haven't met the farmers, the cowboys, the loggers and the truck drivers.  You don't know the mountain men who live off the land, or the brave cops who fight the good fight in the urban war zones.
