Its a phrase you hear from certain politicians a lot, real Americans, and what they want.
Usually they conjure up an image of older white Americans who they claim espouse conservative values.
Obviously some of them do but many others do not.
Its also true that these same baby boomers are children of the 60s who set the course of this nation towards what it has become.
More sexual freedom for everybody.
More legalized marijuana.
More equality between the races, although hardly perfect.
A greater acceptance of religions and diversity.
So who are these real Americans?
They do exist but are hardly a majority of us.
They do tend to vote more and hold on to certain values that aren't the norm anymore.
Real America is much more than that.
It is all of us.
