For those of you beyond America's borders... and for those of you within... if you think gay marriage will never happen here, consider this poster.Less than 150 years ago, Clymer (The White Guy) ran on a platform of white supremacy. He was the Democrat. Geary ran for Pennsylvania governor on a platform for "the Negro" -- pro-Suffrage, that is. Geary was the Republican.
Back then, Democrats used to use the word "radical" as a slang name to demean those who had different views than theirs. Nowadays, Republicans use the word "liberal" as a slang name to demean those who have different views than they do.
This country didn't allow inter-ethnic marriages until 1967. It took the U.S. Supreme Court to undo the damage of the Democratic Virginia Legislature done back in 1924. Today, we are graced with the presence of an African-American (DEMOCRAT) President Barack Obama. In fact, a vast majority of African Americans are Democrats.
Hang on to your hats... it's a testament to two things. One, a label can change just as its product can. In fact, labels just plain suck. Two, never underestimate the fickleness of humanity.
