I do not favor same-sex marriage. I oppose same-sex marriage, and that has been my view. But, but if people are looking for someone who will discriminate against gays or will in any way try and suggest that people that have different sexual orientation don't have full rights in this country, they won't find that in me.
All young people, regardless of sexual orientation or identity, deserve a safe and supportive environment in which to achieve their full potential.

I support ensuring that committed gay couples have the same rights and responsibilities afforded to any married couple in this country.

Sexuality, and sexual orientation - regardless of orientation - is just natural. An act of sex is one of the most human things.

I don't see why we should alienate anyone, regardless of sexual orientation, nationality, religion, ethnicity.
