David:

People do not have to vote FOR rights. The way oour society is notionally built, all rights come naturally from the people and are seconded to the States and the Federal government by acts of assignment.

That's the theory, anyway. Some folks fall into an upside-down blind spot where they think it works the other way around: that only those rights assigned to citizens by the government are valid. But those folks are nach'l born Fascists, not true Americans.
