Hank Williams and George Jones could make 'woe is the blue collar man' songs with the best of them as well and I don't figure that makes them the voice of America by any stretch.
Mopey old country songs get lampooned but when Springsteen makes one (or a dozen of them) they're suddenly masterworks...
