You know, regarding the previous post, I thought of the choice to vote for someone of your race, ideology, party as a statement of "positive" choice (not meaning "good"); but really I think, though we understand the the equation that choosing one thing leaves out other things, that in American we vote in negative terms...AGAINST things.
From our true founder, Emerson:
"Here's for the plain old Adam, the simple genuine self against the whole world."
Of course nearly every term in the statement begs definition and explanation.
