With 23+ and most likely growing candidates on the Democommie side, each has to distinguish him/herself in their own way. Of course a gay candidate would decry this great nation. Why you ask? Well, for all the years this nation has existed, homosexuality has been verboten with the exception of the last few decades.
For most Christians, homosexuality is aberrant behavior, a sin in the eyes of God, etc. I think what ultimately weakened that argument is the degenerate Catholic hierarchy, that went about the land sexually abusing children and getting away with it. It is hard to remain mighty on a subject when the very MEN that decry something are practicing one of the worst acts on our innocent children, and then turning to the parents and pleading with them to not say anything that would embarass the church. And it is not only Catholics, for apparently is it a rather common problem of religious leaders abusing children. Perhaps that is why more and more Americans are falling away from organized religions.
Anyone that makes these idiotic comments about the USA is clueless. If not for this GREAT NATION, most of the world that lives a free life today would be under the fascist thumb of Germany and Japan. Unfortunately, the pope the Catholic church decided to make a saint, who was no saint, proclared that America's capitalism was the dirge of mankind. Another individual that was clueless and ungrateful to a great nation. Then he was followed by a former Nazi as pope, and now the communist fool that is spouting his mouth off misleading the world.
Mayor Buttboy goes no where.
