Now that Cory Booker has officially declared his run for POTUS in 2020 do you believe his homosexuality will help or hurt him more with Democrat voters? I believe this question has to be looked at in 2 parts since there's a huge disconnect between the largely white, liberal progressive side of the dem party who will embrace and promote his homosexuality while the black male side of the dem party will see him being gay as a negative. I'm aware that there are a lot more progressive whites than black males in the dem party so I wonder how this is going to affect Cory's chances in the primaries.
Unless you have solid proof of Mr. Booker's sexuality can get yourself in a world of trouble making statements not based in fact. I believe the legal term is libel in this instance.

There is already an openly gay Democrat candidate running for President. Questioning Booker's sexuality isn't going to derail his candidacy or his qualifications to be President.
I assumed he was gay when during the hearings he acted very feminine with his melodrama... Was it suppose to be a secret? If his story about a girlfriend is true, is he trying to pull a Smollet and lie to your face like that???
I really don't care who he chooses to sleep with, I have enough reasons already that I would not vote for him.
Yes, I agree with you. He is tied to Wall Street and not a true Progressive and Justice Democrat. We know who the pretenders are and they will not pass the test.
Being Gay may help him with the Democrats, but would hurt him in the general election.
I still believe the reason Gore lost in 2000 (other than the bad ballot in Florida) was the Jewish running mate. Without a doubt it cost him enough votes to result in him losing Florida by enough that the ballot issue mattered. If he picks up 5-10,000 more votes there the issue is meaningless. Today I’m not sure a Jewish running mate matters as much as I think in the last 19 years people are more willing to vote for a Jew or an atheist, a homosexual, or a Muslim but bottom line is they’ll still fare worse than a straight Christian Caucasian candidate
All the articles I've read (just looked up), he claims he is heterosexual and denies being homosexual. If he is denying being homosexual, how will it help him (even if he actually were)? It's kind of like Obama constantly saying he is Christian, but many people saying he's really Muslim. If he doesn't identify with being homosexual, what is the point of continually speculating?
Who cares wether he is or not. That won’t be the deciding factor on my vote.
