Commonly, if we link a candidate with a stereotype we like or venerate, we can create a favourable impression of the individual.
Do you think that this sentence is ambiguous? Does "like or venerate" refer back to candidate or stereotype? From the context it seems that it refers to cadidate, but since "like or venerate" directly follows "stereotype", from a textual point of view, the latter makes more sense.
Do you agree that the sentence is ambiguous? (I'm pretty sure that "like or venerate" refers to "candidate", but something tells me that this sentence could have been formulated more clearly, although I could be wrong.)
