Upon completion of the quiz I found that I was matched with Obama. In his responses to the questions on the quiz he says very bluntly that he supports same-sex mariage. I like the directness of his response, no skirting the topic, no non-answers, just a simple yes. I also like that he believes being gay or a lesbian is not a choice. I have seen so much in the way of hate crimes on homosexuality. Protesters stand out side of the Pride festival and tell each and every one of us that we'er going to hell, regardless of if we're gay or support being gay. I look forward to researching more of Obama's stand on equality for gay couples and posting more of i
I used to be against Obama. Of course I knew nothing about him, I was just a typical teenager who hated something if everyone else loved it. Today, however, we took the VoteMatch quiz and I learned a great deal about him. I am extremely pro-gay rights and equality for marriage. I got to the Pride parade every year in Philadelphia with my friends (who are in fact homosexual) and I have cousins who are gay. I see nothing wrong with it. Growing up I always considered everyone equal, and I didn't actually think that same sex couples couldn't get married. So naturally, the freedom to marry is a topic very near and dear to my heart.
