That's great news. US could be open to Gay or lesbian presidential candidates soon.

hopefully, not just the US, but everywhere in the world too! it'd be great if this is NOT even a large issue to be talked about, just part of what that person is. :)

I think it will be a while - we're still going through the acceptance phase.

That's great

Its already spread everywhere. Gay were with us from decades but they emerged as an entity now.

I was wondering why USA invariablely flounders at the entirely open for lesbians and gays at every aspect of life, the legislation for marriage ,the right for political election ,survive under public opinion and so,as far as i known,only certain states admit the marriage and the derivative right.And yet the neighbour Canada seems cope with it smoothly. aren't USA considered to be the most democratic land in the world? It's funny that they are stranded .
