Peterson has more of a pragmatic view of the situation

Rural America Must Be Protected

Tommy Horton


Peterson has more of a pragmatic view of the situation. He contends that it doesn't matter which party occupies the Oval Office and believes there will always be a lack of understanding on rural issues.

"We're an urban country, and the White House reflects the majority of the constituency of the country," he says. "This is the problem we have with everything. Folks don't understand what we do."

Therein lies the problem. So, here's a suggestion for rural America. Keep up the pressure on your senators and congressmen and don't allow anyone to run roughshod on the interests of today's farmer. It's the only way we can protect agriculture's future in this country.

End of discussion.
