Now, here is the text of the proposed amendment:
Marriage in the United States shall consist only of the union of a man and a woman. Neither this Constitution, nor the Constitution of any State, shall be construed to require that marriage or the legal incidents thereof be conferred upon any union other than the union of a man and a woman. Here is, after lengthy discussion, what elcorazon said about it.
I believe your analysis of the language is inaccurate. The proposed amendment would do 2 things:
1) make it unconstitutional for any state to recognize marriage other than between a man and a woman;
2) allow the states to set up other "rights", not including marriage upon same-sex couples, while not requiring other states to recognize those rights. [emphasis added]
Now, I disagree with him on his first point, but I agree with him on the second. He is a Democrat and a Kerry supporter.
