Then I likely would not have voted for her either.
In California, we have the blessing of our election not matter to the presidential candidates. So we are not bombarded with ads (
which I wouldn't see anyway, since I don't watch TV) and they generally don't bother to campaign here.
As such, I have limited opportunities to hear them speak. If I'd seen Hillary speak about her stance on gay marriage rights, she would have lost my support then and there. I think I assumed as much about both candidates, but hearing it from their lips puts a chill in me that I cannot shake.
If Obama
tries not to have his religious beliefs dominate or determine his stance on this matter, he needs to try harder. Because right now, he fails.
