I don't know but here is what our country needs when it comes to civil rights.
There should be no Family Rule so that same sex couples can buy homes together. Promote minority owned businesses by funding more for traditional African-American colleges. Affirmative Action has been a strong benefactor to our public education system. The state should fund more for after school programs in low income areas. End racial profiling. Hire more minority police. Racial remarks are offensive, but sometimes taken out of context. Confederate flag is offensive, but a symbol of free speech and heritage. Private companies shouldn't be forced to hire more minorities as long as they don't discriminate. Issue a commemorative postage stamp of Rosa Parks. Extend hate crimes to include sexual orientation. No discrimination based on sexual orientation. Same sex marriage should be legal. Gay adoptions are better than raising children in the system. Gays in scouts are ok, but the scouts reserves their rights as a private organization. Gay judges are ok but activists shouldn't be appointed anymore than other activists. Don't ask, don't tell sounds silly, but it works. I support the Violence Against Women Act. More states should ratify the Equal Rights Amendment. Cell phone wiretapping does a lot to prevent terrorism. I would be tempted to vote for a constitutional amendment banning flag desecration.
