I did the early voting here and voted for Obama. I have heard all kinds of comments from people like, "He is going to kill all of us(with taxes)" and "He isn't even a citizen, he was born in Kenya." I don't think he was. Wasn't he born in Hawaii? I know his father was born in Kenya. But I don't think he was born there. Does anyone know?


Anyway, I told my wife on the way home from voting that I would be pleased if Obama instituted something that says that if any gay couple has been married in either Mass. or Cal. or had a civil union or gotten married in Canada, that those marriages/unions be recognized in whatever state they live in. Even if a backward state like Texas with a constitutional amendment banning gay marriage, didn't institute that or strike it down, they would still have to recognize my marriage as such.

What do you think?......

He was born in the United States for sure, because he would not actually be aloud to run if he wasn't. You have to be born in the U.S. and I'm sure it was probably Hawaii.

I agree that legal marrages should definately be recognized in all states! I hope that someone does put that law in place!

I know two women, who were legally married in Texas, and now live as a duly legally married couple in Minnesota. It seems that one of the women had "male" on her original birth certificate, but that some very unprogressive counties in Texas give NO legal recognition to transsexualism!
