Maybe for a running mate they should resurrect pre-paralyzed George Wallace.

Just my humble opinion but I don't think anyone that calls for support of discriminating against 10% or so of the population has any place in government.

Religion has no more place in organized government then facts have in organized religion.

Just my humble opinion, but I think as soon as we act upon saying "I don't think anyone that calls for support of x has any place in government" then we won't have anyone in government. How many politicians discriminate against the upper class (or the poor)? Much larger categories of people than "gay".

This whole democracy thing is great. In my own life, I support the majority in those cases where it is advantageous to me and the minority in those cases where it is advantageous to me. If you're going to go minority, go with a powerful minority. No sense backing the downtrodden. The meek shall never inherit the earth. The geeks are doing pretty well though.

I would worry much more about those who discriminate against 90% or so of the population than 10%. Then again, I'm not gay. And there, right on time, is the nutshell.
