To: Soul of the South
This 2016 Presidential Election map by County illustrates the problems.

There are strongholds of liberalism in the red states. In the south a lot of the blue areas are heavy African American.

Southeast Florida is heavy Hispanic and retired northerners.

Southern Texas, NM and AZ is heavy Hispanic.

Three tribes to deal with right there.

This doesn't even begin to address the most basic of all issues: Food and Power.

Whether we like it or not a lot of our food is grown in CA. In a CW, that goes away for the Red States. All those blue counties in the south....a lot of food is grown there as well.

Think electricity is going to continue to flow in a CW?

Well, as an example as to why this might not be as big of a problem as you think, let's look at the “blue belt” of counties in Alabama.

Except for Jefferson County (Birmingham) and Montgomery county, all of the others are very small population-wise. The red counties actually have far more people.

There are 67 counties in Alabama. 13 voted for Hillary, 54 for Trump.

So, let's look at those blue counties.

And their County name, population, percent White and percent Black:

Jefferson County: 659,000 53% 42% (this this the outlier, and also the only really big city in Alabama, so it has the largest amount of white leftists.

Now, the "Blue belt", from East to West:

Russell County: 52,947 53% 46% (Hillary won by 300 or so votes)

Macon County: 21,452 15.5% 82.6%

Bullock County: 10,914 23% 73.3%

Montgomery county: 229,363 48.85% 48.58%

Lowndes County: 11,299 25.3% 73.5%

Dallas County: 43,820 29.1% 69.4%

Perry County: 10,591 30.3% 68.7%

Marengo County: 21,027 46.4% 51.7%

Wilcox County: 11,670 26.8% 72.5%

Hale County: 15,760 39.8% 59%

Greene County: 9,045 17.4% 81.5%

Sumter County: 13,763 24.2% 75%
.

White Counties (all red—by population):

Mobile County: 412,992 60.2% 34.6%

Madison County: 334,811 65.9% 24.6%

Shelby County: 195,085 83% 10.2%

Tuscaloosa County: 194,656 68.12% 23.9%

Baldwin County: 182,265 85.7% 9.4%

Lee County: 140,247 71.3% 22.7%

I'll stop here.

The bottom line, the largest county that is majority black is Dallas, with 43K people. The largest county in all of Alabama, which actually is white majority (slightly) is Jefferson, which is the city of Birmingham. The city itself is Black majority.

The next two largest counties, Mobile and Madison, which together are larger in population than Jefferson, are majority white and voted Red.

Alabama is predominately white and conservative. That won't change. Those 12 counties that make up the “Blue belt” aren't going to change either, but in totality, they're not a lot of people.

“Whether we like it or not a lot of our food is grown in CA. In a CW, that goes away for the Red States. All those blue counties in the south....a lot of food is grown there as well.”

These entities are not simply going to continue business as usual. Their worst enemy is their own political kind. Free food!! Those places will be stripped of equipment (just because), food, means for raising said food (e.g., mass watering/irrigation systems), etc. The animals care less about tomorrow, but what they want NOW. They will feed on their own FIRST! The Rats will never, ever be able to control their “constituents” in a free-for-all environment!
