Talk:United States presidential election, 2020 (Scenario: 84 Years Ahead)/@comment-7431988-20170124195402/@comment-25266559-20170124210756

The idea of having liberalism be represented by red and conservatism be represented by blue is in place in the majority of the western world. I expect in the future once the western world becomes more unified as one, the western standard would be red for liberals and blue for conservatives. Plus it's just more historically accurate. Blue for the party of Lincoln and the Union, and red for the leftist opposition. Previous to about 2000 or so that was generally the standard in America.

Plus I think it looks prettier. A small amount of red in contrast to a large amount of blue is better than a large amount of red and a small amount of blue aesthetically. Because liberals are more concentrated in smaller states and cities, it's a better cartographic color choice.
