so you are supporting Bernie because of this silly issue that has NOTHING to do with the President.....just like abortion......a President can't do a damn thing about it, he is limited under our constitution, he is not KING.


we got low information voters in this country.

Your assessment, Again, is ignorantly Wrong, Waldo.

Georgia, Florida, Alabama, Louisanna, Mississippi, Texas, Arkansas, Tennessee , Kentucky, South Carolina, are and will continue to be, Aggressively Opposed..

Don't worry. He'll be a wonderful president for ALL Americans.
Trump said just two weeks ago on Fox News that he doesn't agree with the Supreme Court's recent ruling on SSM and would, if elected, attempt to appoint judges to the SCOTUS who would reverse it.

How does this information affect your claim?

many Americans don't like how the SC pulled gay marriage as a constitutional right out of their behinds.....thank the 4 liberal justices that will vote YES to any DNC agenda and Kennedy (should thank BUSH family for that one)

and they have every right to keep protesting about it.....the SC had no business defining what is marriage and the standards. That's up to the states....Trump and many Republicans are correct on this.

Have you ever lived in NC?

As far as "yankee liberals" are concerned, it's noteworthy the state turned red in the last 5 years. All the Democrats swept in with Obama have been swept out. This includes the Governor, state legislature, state senator, and the state went for Romney in 2012.

You mean the typical 'do as I say, not as I do' Republican who as some of his very early moves gave his cabinet 20% raises while telling everyone else they were going to need to tighten their belts? That Governor?

I hope you are wrong about Kasich, because he's my favorite.
the important thing for many to remember is: most of us, regardless of our personal feelings realize there are a lot more important issues in this country than who supports many social issues, not just gay marriage. As you pointed out, many of us, in fact most of us have gay children, relatives or friends that have gay family members. I will go so far as to say, not a one of those running for President will change the present law. It is like the panic so many felt when Bush was elected President in 2000. Because he is personal free life everyone believing in abortion was sure he would make an attempt to push for supreme court judges that would overturn Roe verses Wade; the subject never even came up.
