Collection, or Community? Obama the Anti-nominalist
Nominalists believe in collections, not communities, because they reject
universals. What follows is the clearest statement against nominalism
that I have heard from any politician.
"I believe we can seize this
future together because we are not as divided as our politics suggests.
We’re not as cynical as the pundits believe. We are greater than the sum
of our individual ambitions and we remain more than a collection of red
states and blue states. We are, and forever will be, the United States
of America."
- President Barack Obama
