Am I the individual not American? I don't get it.

Sorry, the gap between what I mean and what I say is sometimes pretty large.
I mean the idea that what might benefit you right now individually may be at odds with your 'patriotism' (for lack of a better term).
I'm voting Obama because I'm in a low tax bracket and will save more money under him than McCain, but I believe McCain's foreign policy will create a safer America for my children OR I'm voting McCain because I think his economic policies are more favorable for the business I'd like to start, but I think that Obama's healthcare plan will better allow this country to fulfill its ideals.
Of course you can agree with one candidate across all issues. You may even speak in less ridiculous and inflated terms than the horrible examples I provided.

What, what in the butt.
Seriously, I will honor a Hoyatalk tradition and simply assume that the meaning meant was the meaning I agreed with, and against the meaning with which I disagreed (hanging participles be damned).
