(Part IV)
I see and read articles claiming that the majority of Americans surveyed or polled say that they would support or vote for a qualified Gay Candidate. I know that gay people have strong financial and social resources. So where is the problem? So I tell myself that I will run for Presidency of the United States and in doing so not only will the world see the justice of the first Gay Presidential Candidate, but will also in double-benefit attain one that is also Hispanic and foreign-born, a naturalized American Citizen, who nowadays does, speaks and even thinks primarily in the English language. But wait a minute! Then I realize, if I am not mistaken, a foreign-born American Citizen cannot run for the Presidency of the United States. So there I go again, looking for articles on the subject in the Internet. And thus, I come across an article titled ???Schwarzenegger: Let foreign-born seek White House.??? But then just a little into the article I come across the following statement: ???Schwarzenegger reaffirmed his opposition to the gay marriages that are taking place in San Francisco. He said Mayor Gavin Newsom's refusal to obey the state's law against same-sex marriages could set a bad precedent [2].??? However, before he had made that statement he also said: "There are so many people in this country that are now from overseas, that are immigrants, that are doing such a terrific job with their work, bringing businesses here, that there's no reason why not," said Schwarzenegger, who became a U.S. citizen in 1983. "Look at the kind of contribution that people like Henry Kissinger have made, Madeleine Albright," he said, referring to two former secretaries of state who were born in Europe [2].??? And there is the great hypocrisy of seeking fairness for some, and denying the legal rights of others. It is a researched fact that marriages improve the propensity of human beings to being less promiscuous and thus to contribute to the betterment of the overall health of society. So why deny gay (and when I say ???gay??? I always project also the term for ???lesbian???) people the opportunity to have such a just legal standing. To me a marriage certificate is nothing more than a paper, because true loyalty to somebody or something cannot be written on paper, but it does provide for many legal protections that living in an imperfect and generally unfairly biased world necessitates. And in doing so more gay teenage individuals prone to much instability in their love affairs would seek to settle down in a faithful family life style with the person of their preference. That is something that intelligent heterosexual individuals accept in the comfort of their private lives, but which they selfishly deny in public.
