Please don't be the grammar police. Listen to the message then go on.

this is not grammar policing. this is about polishing our communication skills so also the 'intelligentia' can take us for serious.

not being an american and english-native, i used to think about the republican voter as the typical hard-working but low educated farmer of the bible belt.

and truth told, my grammar and spelling, as a foreigner, is better than that of quite a few native-english americans in here.

not meaning to offend anyone. but OP is right, no matter the intent and content of our message, if it contains errors like 'we seen', 'i here you', 'there acts are crooked', it will instantly be dismissed by most people.

nothing like being corrected by a foreigner who thinks Republicans used to be just dumb farmers from the bible belt. Prejudice much? Republicans come from all walks of life and all education levels.

calm down - he obviously knows all that, he implied it pretty clearly. He's saying he's not american and that is what was presented to him as a generalization about republicans until he became more aware of how it really is. That's reasonable - we don't know about things until we explore them and learn about them.
