Answer 1

Select:
- The choice of colors show he is patriotic. — Yes. Campaign photos commonly use red/white/blue or a flag to signal patriotism.
- He is well dressed in presentable, formal attire. — Yes. A suit/tie or similarly formal clothing signals professionalism and respectability.
- He has a message to convey. — Yes. Campaign imagery implies the person is speaking to voters and communicating a platform.

Do not select:
- He is well informed and ready to present. — No. A photo can imply confidence or preparedness, but it cannot reliably prove the candidate is well informed.
- He comes from an educated background. — No. Educational background isn’t directly shown by a single campaign photo and would be an unsupported inference.
