vs. modern thinking population centers?"

That might be part of the problem right there.

As for "the people" protesting, making DEMANDS! and marching on Washington--well, "the people" include the ones who have elected an overwhelming number of R governors and state legislatures. If you think protests are going to get you something you can't get at the ballot box, I think you're a little misguided.
