Congressman Hakeem Jeffries: State Of The District 2015

















Bobby and Gay Marriage

I guess it's not exactly a new thing, Bobby's stand on gay marriage, but I read about it in news a few days back, and it was like the air was let out of the tire. You could hear the sound. Any warmth I felt for Bobby stands deflated. 

Being against gay marriage today is like being against voting rights for blacks, in 1969. It is time to go to the moon, and you are against what now? 

At best I will watch the 2016 race unfold in Google News headlines. I got done with political volunteering in 2008. I am also quite taken with watching Modi unfold in India. The guy promises to be India's own Deng Xiaoping, its own Yee Kuan Lew. And I read about him nearly daily.
