Why do you think that McCain will clearly win? Obama is in the lead.
I also think that the Amendment to ban gay marriage is an empty campaign promise. If he tries to pass it, it will be met with a lot of resistance in the House, because there are a lot of gay and lesbian constituent, and a lot of people that have gay friends, sibs, and co-workers.
Should it pass, there will probably be huge protests, and a lot of unrest.
I think it is simply a attempt to get Republicans to sway for his side.
I also think that far more people are going to turn out, especially people of color, who have often felt like they have not had a voice in the country. Obama represents that to them, and I think that he will win by a landslide.
I also think that Bush has pretty much made the Republican party look ineffecient at running the government and irresponsible and dishonest about the war.
In Canada, a gay couple wanted to get married. They brought it to the Supreme Court, and said that it was a violation of their rights. The Supreme Court heard their story, and it was made law. There was no discussion of the people that this did not concern, nor do I think it should. When I see heterosexuals (the majority) voting about the rights of gay people, it is very unconstituional. People can't vote for your Civil Rights. (Otherwise, black people would still be segragated.) The country was set up so that the majority could not try to take away the rights of a minority. This is simply in violation of the Constitution, and should be addressed to the Supreme Court, instead of all the debates, votes state by state, and the majority voting about the rights of the minority.
