The correct answer is C, as the foundation of the American culture is based in the freedom of choice.
The freedom of choice describes the opportunity and autonomy of an individual to perform a selected action of at least two options available, without restrictions by anyone.
In the United States, the freedom of choice, thought and expression constitutes the fundamental pillar of the culture of the country, being the basis of its political system.
Freedom is the fundamental idea with which the citizens of the United States identify themselves and all the political parties throughout their history have proclaimed their defenders, even, incredible as it may seem to us, those who tried to preserve slavery.
