It’s election day. Polls are just beginning to close back East There’s buzz in the air. The country is choosing its next president. States are deciding who to put in Congress and which ballot initiatives to pass. Will we as a country and individual states make authentic choices?
According to my four levels model, the answer is No. The choice will be complex, but not authentic. My model applies more easily to individual choices. At the country level, what's authentic is dependent on what we value. If, for instance, we value the conservative policies of John McCain, only his winning would be authentic. The opposite is true for those who value what Barack Obama stands for.
In the end, an authentic choice is quite subjective.
