Aren't these exactly the folks that need to be included in conversations? Can't we learn their fears that may, perhaps, have just foundations while educating them about their misconceptions (wild west: helped their neighbors, yet doesn't appear to realize that land was given, or cheaply bought due to government intervention) to try to build a common ground upon which to start? I agree the article does an excellent job characterizing many who are 45 supporters.
