Where's the concern about "turning off" minority voters?

So then how do you reconcile your use of the oft-cited "racial" talking points -

We have to remember that the blue collar and rural white working class

The white blue collar rural vote is just as important as any other group and trying to categorize or marginalize a group is exactly opposite of what Progressives/Liberals stand for.

I.e., blacks seem to never be considered to be or associated as "working class" nor are blacks even considered to be living in "rural" areas, despite the fact that the majority of Americans (white or black) are essentially "working class" and there are upwards of 20% of the rural population that are POC. In fact, the population of "rural" dwellers is a mere 20% of the nation's total population, with the remaining 80% breaking down to about 53% "suburban" and 26% "urban".

Even moreso you have this phenomena about "rural America" -

Most live in the East, not the West or Midwest

Sixty percent of the rural population lives east of the Mississippi, and almost half lives in the South. The most rural states aren’t lonely and lightly populated Alaska or Wyoming but two New England states: Vermont and Maine.

The map below shows the concentration of rural residents in each state:

So given that demographic reality - 60% of the rural population is EAST of the Mississippi and 1/2 of those live in the south, why is the south ignored?

And with "rural" blacks, they are predominately located in the south -
