Self-Determination

My grandmother came to America from Russia about 107 years ago.  She said she came from Russia.  If someone asked for whom she had voted, she said “When I lived in Russia, the Tzar did not let me vote for someone and then not tell anyone who I voted for.  Then I came to America, learned the language, became a citizen, so I could vote and not tell anyone who I voted for.”
