(45,319 posts)She now says she favors marriage equality, as of March 2013. But here is the Hillary we all know, those of us who give a shit about civil rights and equality.
Hillary 2000:
"Marriage has got historic, religious and moral content that goes back to the beginning of time and I think a marriage is as a marriage has always been, between a man and a woman."
Of course by that time, even Dick Cheney had stated his support for equality. Cheney. But not our Hillary.
Instead of being the advocate for justice she could have been, she used her position to oppose the rights of my community, repeatedly and always citing religion.
This does not make me see her as a President who would be on my side at all. So I pick someone who has not spent decades reciting right wing talking points against me.
