Would it bother you to have a gay President like Pete Buttigieg?

[NoPoliticsPleeease]

This would be when I leave the country

This comes from a 10 JUN 1993 opinion piece published in The Washington Post and written by arch-Conservative, former GOP Senator from Arizona, and 1964 GOP Presidential nominee:

"THE GAY BAN: JUST PLAIN UN-AMERICAN
By Barry M. Goldwater June 10, 1993

After more than 50 years in the military and politics, I am still amazed to see how upset people can get over nothing. Lifting the ban on gays in the military isn't exactly nothing, but it's pretty damned close.

Everyone knows that gays have served honorably in the military since at least the time of Julius Caesar. They'll still be serving long after we're all dead and buried. That should not surprise anyone.

But most Americans should be shocked to know that while the country's economy is going down the tubes, the military has wasted a half-billion dollars over the past decade chasing down gays and running them out of the armed services.

It's no great secret that military studies have proven again and again that there's no valid reason for keeping the ban on gays.
...
Under our Constitution, everyone is guaranteed the right to do as he pleases as long as it does not harm someone else. You don't need to be "straight" to fight and die for your country. You just need to shoot straight.

With all the good this country has accomplished and stood for, I know that we can rise to the challenge, do the right thing and lift the ban on gays in the military. Countries with far less leadership and discipline have traveled this way, and successfully.

When you get down to it, no American able to serve should be allowed, much less given an excuse, not to serve his or her country. We need all our talent.

If I were in the Senate today, I would rise on the Senate floor in support of our commander in chief. He may be a Democrat, but he happens to be right on this question.
..."

It's no different with the top position in the US military otherwise known as being President.

@asker, if you want to leave the US over a gay president, feel free to do so.

[NoPoliticsPleeease]

Yea the gays should be able to serve in the military only they need to put them on the front lines so the real soldiers can be more safe

[OlderAndWiser]

I oppose anything that advances the political agenda of trying to normalize homosexual and lesbian relationships.

[NoPoliticsPleeease]

It sure isn't normal I do not hate them I know they have hard lives they deserve to live their lives but I don't want it shoved it on the country

[OlderAndWiser]

Exactly!

You can really dislike homosexuality without hating homosexuals. Yes, they have hard lives; if I had a son, I certainly wouldn't want him to have that life.

[NoPoliticsPleeease]

And it is bad enough for someone to be gay but trannies is even worse and is even more sick and disgusting I would not be surprised if the Dems tried to push a tranny presidential nominee

[OlderAndWiser]

Freaks of nature!

[NoPoliticsPleeease]

yes they are

[OlderAndWiser]

They are mentally ill but the people who support them in getting surgically altered. . . what is THEIR excuse?

[NoPoliticsPleeease]

They just want to be contrary to conservatives in any way possible even if it means not getting these sick people the mental help they deserve and letting them mutilate themselves and many of them end up killing themselves because of it

[NoPoliticsPleeease]

I mean if someone is gay they are simply gay there is no denying it but a tranny is no different than someone else who has lost touch with reality they need mental help

[Rissyanne]

That’s never going to happen. He’s not even going to make it to the primaries. The dnc want Biden.

[NoPoliticsPleeease]

They do? It seems to me like the entire left is attacking Biden.

[Rissyanne]

They will screw Bernie over again and get Biden. Then he will lose to Trump.

[Anonymous]

I don't want a gay president. Can you just imagine Iran laughing at us?

[NoPoliticsPleeease]

Not just them everyone. And then some far left idiot will say they want a trans president next. And I will move to Russia lol because those sickos are not representing my country.

[Anonymous]

Mayor Pete is an asshole, even without that.

[NoPoliticsPleeease]

That is true. Just because he got to be Mayor doesn't mean he is cut out to be president.

[AngelLily]

There's literally a gay politician called buttigieg😂?

[NoPoliticsPleeease]

Well it sounds like buttijudge but yea lol

[llorando]

Yes, and not because their actually gay, but because their like Pete who is beholden to BIG $$$$$$ donors which includes the Big Pharma, MIC, Fossil Fuel.

[ShineDJJ]

I don't give a flip about someone's sexual orientation. I just care if they'll do a good job and help the country while in office.

[Logorithim]

His politics is what bothers me.

[BornFree]

I am fine with a president with any sexual orientation

I only care about their views

[NoPoliticsPleeease]

You gotta have a tough president you can't have someone like him every president we ever had was strong and not afraid to get his hands dirty even Obama did what needed to be done and plus we end up with a gay president next it will be a tranny and instead of focus on real issues they will try to pass Pro-LGBT legislation to fuck over normal people even more.

[BornFree]

You should come out from the closet

[NoPoliticsPleeease]

That is a joke I guess if you hate child molesters you must molests kids huh? @BornFree

[Anonymous]

Nope. Who knows maybe he will make LGBTQIAB... even more superior

[NoPoliticsPleeease]

That would never happen because they are inferior lol

[Poormanscomedian]

He would be a sweet , gentle president

[NoPoliticsPleeease]

You joking with me?

[Poormanscomedian]

Yes , a joke

[NoPoliticsPleeease]

I do not mind a woman and I do not mind any race being president but LGBT to hell with that

[GD360]

Can't do any worse then Trump. How does sexuality hurt your decision making skills.

[NoPoliticsPleeease]

Not decision making skills just I don't want a faggot representing our country other world leaders will think we are ripe for the taking

[GD360]

Fair enough, seeing so many females supporting gay pride didn't think I'll get down thumbs from you lol

[TomboyQueen]

Why would it bother me?

[NoPoliticsPleeease]

You personally? I don't know. Girls are more likely to be more liberal on this stuff.

[TomboyQueen]

It’s 2019, who cares about someone’s sexual orientation, race or gender

Tell me what he will do as president

[NoPoliticsPleeease]

Who cares? Putin and Kim Jong Un that is who. They see a gay guy as president they see us as weak and they think they can walk all over us.

[TomboyQueen]

Why you care what they care?

Both men are awful leaders and deserve no respect

[TomboyQueen]

Plus Trump said that he fell in love with Kim Jong un

[NoPoliticsPleeease]

No Putin is great he banned being gay he is a God to me

[TomboyQueen]

Being gay is legal in Russia

[NoPoliticsPleeease]

No it is not

[NoPoliticsPleeease]

Well at least no civil unions or same sex marriage and that is good enough for me

[TomboyQueen]

You support big government telling people who they can marry and can’t marry?

[NoPoliticsPleeease]

I support them if it means I don't have to see it in my face or on my TV I support tradition above all this is the world I grew up in and this is the world I want to live in now

[TomboyQueen]

You are a conservative?

[NoPoliticsPleeease]

I am actually more in the middle a centerist but LGBT is a hate group so is Antifa and other far left groups. I despise any sort of extremism. I also hate people who protest abortion clinics.

[HungLikeAHorsefly]

Does he know about economics tho

[NoPoliticsPleeease]

The whole game is rigged as far as who becomes president I am just saying Putin or someone else who is part of a powerful country will think we are ripe for the taking if a gay guy is president Trump is crazy, Obama had a huge kill list George Bush went to war at the drop of a hat Pete would be going for tea instead

[HungLikeAHorsefly]

But does he know about economics? Trump seems to be struggling with that whole area

[Vesta]

Your username says "no politics please"

[NoPoliticsPleeease]

Yea it is kinda like a joke though like sometimes I am fed up and don't wanna talk politics thus the name but once in a while I do when I am curious as to what people think

[Vesta]

Then don't post about poltiics. if you dont' want to, don't do it

[NoPoliticsPleeease]

I can post about whatever I want lol

[SnowFoxy1]

Yeah, a bit.

[Anonymous]

Nope we already had a couple gay ones

[NoPoliticsPleeease]

Maybe in the closet but if other countries think a homo is running ours they will walk all over us

[tartaarsaus]

I'd be totally fine with a gay PM here.

[ZeussLightningBolt]

Honestly, yes

[Therisinghero12]

I dont care, as long as they don't screw things up

[Nayrr]

Lol, no.

[DOMDADDY999]

l don't care
