Representing Red and Blue

Abstract
AbstractThis book argues that to understand how representation works in the United States, we need understand the demand side of the representational relationship. Citizens, the book proposes, have a sense for the degree to which they instinctively like “leaders who lead” (trustees), on the one hand, or “public servants who listen” (delegates), on the other. Picking up cues about a potential representative's representation style during election campaigns, citizens “reward” politicians with electoral support when they recognize a similar representational perspective. This pattern continues after the election: job approval may be shaped, in part, by whether the representative's governing style is consistent with the one constituents prefer. The central claim is that cultural traditionalists-especially, but not exclusively, evangelical Christians-tend to embrace trustee-style representation more readily than do seculars, religious progressives, or civil libertarians. By extension, the book contends that as long as religious and other cultural differences continue to color ideological identification, partisanship, and vote choices in the United States-with cultural traditionalists trending Republican, and seculars, religious progressives, and civil libertarians migrating Democratic-then preferences regarding styles of representation may also come in distinct partisan shades of “Red” and “Blue”. This book presents an in-depth analysis of several years (conducted between 2004 and 2009) of national surveys designed specifically to assess public preferences for, and evaluations of, political representation. In addition, unique aggregate data are used to examine how public preferences for representation influence how elected officials represent their constituents.

- Pretraining has recently greatly promoted the development of natural language processing (NLP)
- We show that M6 outperforms the baselines in multimodal downstream tasks, and the large M6 with 10 parameters can reach a better performance
- We propose a method called M6 that is able to process information of multiple modalities and perform both single-modal and cross-modal understanding and generation
- The model is scaled to large model with 10 billion parameters with sophisticated deployment, and the 10 -parameter M6-large is the largest pretrained model in Chinese
- Experimental results show that our proposed M6 outperforms the baseline in a number of downstream tasks concerning both single modality and multiple modalities We will continue the pretraining of extremely large models by increasing data to explore the limit of its performance
