США

примечания:

They lost their small farm in Oklahoma due to a couple of crop failures , the high price of seed and a well going dry . As most small farmers they were always a little in debt , but with a new harvest they were able to pay off their debts and save a little . Then came a couple of bad years . They applied for help from the government . They were denied . So they came to California with two children seeking something from the Golden State . They are living in a small motor home that someone gave them . Being a farmer he knew nothing else and then came the big layoffs and now he has no chance .
Tomorrow we are going to take the whole family to Pasadena for one of the largest " Pot lucks in the park ". Everyone brings something . And there are about 1600 homeless who come to the Thanksgiving event . No one leaves hungry . Perhaps I can hook him up with a job there .

It's a high quality portrait. What puzzles me is the title. I understand the title being the integral part of the photo. I cannot understand it in it's entirety. Why "new"? Now with Barak Hussein Obama at the wheel they have a promising future. Are they the face of America? Here I see, however sad it might be, faces of two misfortunate persons, reminding me mentally disturbed. And what is middle America? I lived there and many times went from NYC to LA and from Chicago to New Orleans, but still cannot locate "your" middle America. Would be grateful for your reply.

Middle America is Oklahoma and some of the other farming states etc.. And the President is not bailing out these people . Only the big corporations . They don't face a promising future in America . I don't know what you have been hearing about the President , but he is no better that any other President . He can talk the talk , but not walk the walk . We are deeper in debt thah ever before and getting deeper every day . Under him the constitution is just another piece of paper .
In ecnomic reality China owns the United States .
Regards.

No offence taken. They are just people down on their luck , like millions of other Americans.
