Question by lamp_breaker18: Vote for Obama? Why?
I haven’t really followed politics this year, but can someone sum up why all the gays are voting for Obama? Obviously they wouldn’t vote for McCain, but I don’t know all the stances he is taking. I’ve heard that he supports gay marriage, and I’ve heard that he only supports civil unions. Can someone help me out?
Ok, not ALL the gays, but the majority. %90 of the people at SD Pride were wearing Obama shirts or stickers, or were in the booths recruiting people.

“All the gays” are not voting for Obama.

Frankly, if he wants to be president, he will need a lot more than nice speeches for my vote. He is running for the highest office in the most powerful nation on earth. I will not give my consent to anyone… anyone… who does not tell me exactly what he plans to do in that office. He at least owes something more than “change we can believe in.”

If he does something horrible in office and I voted for him, then I’m responsible. Ignorance is no excuse. The same is true of all politicians.

Me and I imagine lots of others who refuse to register to vote feel the same.
