Many times when I give a talk about American Culture someone will ask why do Americans do that? Most the time the answer is because that's the way we've always done it. But that's not really a good answer.
For example, Federal Elections in the US are always held on the first Tuesday after the first Monday in the month of November. So that means this year, election day is on November 6. But why do we vote on a Tuesday and not on a Saturday or a Thursday?
That's a good question and I did not know the answer until I watched this video. Watch it for yourself to find out why.
