    Honest question: What's the "American Heartland"? For my immigrant grandparents, it was Brooklyn.https://twitter.com/PeteButtigieg/status/1222632372362981378 …

    In the face of unprecedented challenges, we need a president whose vision was shaped by the American Heartland rather than the ineffective Washington politics we’ve come to know and expect.

        But where exactly is the midwest? I think of it as OK and KS. But I bet that is not exactly where he thinks the heartland is.

        if you want a technical answer, it's generally also the same area as the "Bible Belt"...Kansas/Nebraska, where most of our food/grains are grown.
