Ehh, honestly I used to think this too, but the political divide is a lot more volatile than people think. The divide in this country is more cultural than political. Someone who lives in New York City lives a vastly different lifestyle than someone who lives in a ranch in Arizona, and that person also lives a vastly different lifestyle from someone who lives in a mountain top in Alaska. At the end of the day, what really defines a nation is a group of people with a shared history, language, and values. America as a whole doesn't really have that, and that's because as I said in a previous post, America isn't a country, it's an empire. In other words, we already have a bunch of little nations under the America umbrella. Utah is possibly the best example of this. That state was founded by Mormons and to this day almost everyone who lives there is Mormon, and many of them can trace back their ancestry to that region's original Mormon settlers.
