That means if you are wheeling one of these German autos down the highway, you are a part of it, like it or not.



We all know what, exactly? Don't include your neighbors, me or anyone else by the use of "We". You have permission to ONLY speak for yourself, no one else. Seems that since the meaning of the word "Vote" has evolved and changed over the past 500 years, it just might be possible that its meaning is STILL dynamic and changing.

This. NOTHING IS SET IN STONE, NOTHING.



You said "vote" so let's go with that.
