Everyone knows that polls are not scientific and this particular poll would give you totally different results depending on what time of day, what geographical locations, and what age group you polled. Personally, I think an openly gay president would be worse than the one we have now, who is running out of ink signing all of these executive orders. Can anyone say "socialism"???Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1677108722778516534.post-17380716782577359552009-01-23T12:29:00.000-06:002009-01-23T12:29:00.000-06:00kristi,he was not ranked that way because he was g...kristi,<BR/>he was not ranked that way because he was gay.<BR/><BR/><I>Over 60% of American voters would elect an openly-gay president, and even more would support an openly gay cabinet secretary, a poll conducted by Zogby International showed.<BR/><BR/>Zogby International surveyed 1,089 American adults from 13-15th August on behalf of the Gay and Lesbian Leadership Institute (GLLI)<BR/><BR/>Chuck Wolfe, president of GLLI, said: "These results prove that most Americans want to be fair to gay people.

Not hailing from Bessemer, I surmise that Quest, Pulse, and The Yacht Club are places where gentlemen congregate. If so, my friend's advice might apply here. My exact question was: How does one find a lover? His response? 'One does not find a lover, one simply stays ready for the time the lover appears'. Staying ready is the point. If you are ready there is a degree of contentment to be found in that. When your gentleman recognizes that you are ready that will make it all the easier for both of you. Further advice from another good friend: Chins up!<BR/>Olin Blankenshipolin blankenshiphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14343890707515181718noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1677108722778516534.post-67466229263808660412009-01-23T10:16:00.000-06:002009-01-23T10:16:00.000-06:00"I have gone a wooing to several gentlemen, but ha..."I have gone a wooing to several gentlemen, but have not succeeded with any one of them."<BR/><BR/>That is a familiar story for me.
