The candidates on Gay issues [View All]

[VoteClark]

I want to encourage people to really think about what effect the President has on gay issues. NONE. I have only heard one candidate truly address the issues of gay rights fairly. That man was Al Sharpton. He said that supporting Civil Unions is hypocrisy from a civil rights standpoint. He said it was like supporting blacks not to have the right to marry but it was OK for them to shack up. That is exactly correct.

As a gay man myself, I think that supporting a candidate because he wants to treat gay people as "almost as good but not quiet as good" as everyone else, has his head someplace else. I think that you either think that gay people need to be given the SAME rights or you don't. I don't respect candidates that don't try to get the gay vote but still are trying to still capture the bulk vote.

I also think that gay issues will not be resolved by politicans. It will be solved by the courts. The courts are the ones that give gay people equal rights. I am sick of these politicans saying they will do something for gay people. They don't, they can't, they will not be reelected.

So vote on something else. Dean can take credit for the Vermont supreme court decision because he was governor at the time and Kerry can take credit for Gay marriage because he is a Senator of Massachuetts at the time. BUT REALLY, they didn't do sh*t about it before the rulings of the courts. So they get nothing from me.

I am voting for Clark, because international peace and national security are at stake. Clark will take action. To me this is more important than lip service of politicans talking about what they think about gay people.
