If gays and lesbians are allowed to marry and if minorities are elected to the White House
The America may have the potential to be a decent place for everyone to live.

The people who resist these kinds of events are the same ones who want the rich few to rule everyone else.

We want a level playing field for everyone... They think that a level playing field is "un-American".

That's the difference between them and us.

8. First the minority in the White House has favor marriage equality
as opposed to parroting clerical crap and mumbo jumbo muy religioso. All that 'only straights are sanctified by God' shit has to be a thing of the past. No more McClurkins. No more bigotry posing as false righteousness, no more sanctimonious rhetoric paving over pot holes of prejudice.

10. A level playing field *is* "un-American".
But then, you and I aren't really part of America.

11. That's right, we're hyphenated Americans
Hispanic-African-Asian-Gay-Irish-Polish-Disabled-and so on and so on American

The funny thing is, that if you or I were in some other country, like Holland for instance, we would simply be an "American" to them. No hyphen needed.

But here, some "Americans" are more or less American than others.
