Democrats for Same Sex Marriage

In 1996, an act called the Defense of Marriage Act was passed in the United States of America. Thus, illegalizing the marriage of two person of the same gender. Ever since, there has been a movement to help re-gain equal rights for everyone in which the Democrats support and the Republicans oppose. Most Democrats support same-sex marriage such as Obama. Republicans on the other hand are foaming at the mouth over same-sex marriage. One Republican in particular named Mark Foley is extremely against same-sex marriage. It turns out, he was caught sending inappropriate instant messages and e-mails to under-aged boys and is homosexual himself. One of the messages he sent said “Measure it with a ruler.” I personally believe that same-sex marriage should be legal. Personally, I’m not a homosexual but I strongly believe that every human being has every right to marry whomever they want whether it is man or woman, love is love. Who is the government to say who you can and cannot love? Whether or not a man marries a man or a man marries a woman it doesn’t affect anybody else in any way, shape or form so why should it matter? If anything it’ll slow down the population growth. I firmly believe that same-sex marriage should be legal because it’s wrong to tell someone who they can and cannot marry. If I man can marry a woman, a man should be able to marry a man and a woman should be able to marry a woman. I obviously take the Democrat’s side on this topic. I think the only reason the Republicans oppose same-sex marriage is because they don’t want the public to know they’re gay since a handful of foaming at the mouth anti same-sex marriage Republicans have been caught red-handed in homosexual activities.

The Democrats

It is said that the Democratic Party has had "the lengthiest record of continuous operation in the United States" with approximately 72 million registered voters in 2004. While the Democrats have a minority of the seats in the House, they hold a majority of seats in the Senate. This party appeals to the majority of the public due to the fact that it is said that “The party has favored farmers, laborers, labor unions, and religious/ethnic minorities.” Today, it is said that the Democrats are beginning to favor more social freedoms, affirmative action, balanced budget, and free enterprise system. They are also working on a progressive taxation. Thus, boosting the economy but charging more money for every product. Today, the current president is a Democrat name Barrack Obama, being the first African American president and the 15th Democratic President to serve in the White House. The Democrats are mainly out there to help the majority of the public and make America the best possible place to live in.
