   People do not necessarily vote in their self-interest.

   They vote their identity.

   They vote their values.

   They vote for who they identify with.

     @georgelakoff I have just been reading about newly inaugurated president of Guatemala, Bernardo Arévalo, whose party is a coalition of students and indigenous groups. After months of constitutional challenges by the entrenched corrupt politicians, he was able to take his position last night. Sometimes we need to vote our identity and values.
