Why not more of us in Congress?

[toro]

I see our state is one of the six, it should be changed, equal rights for all citizens, still think everyone who runs for public office should have to declare their beliefs, people have the right to know who they are voting for.

What other things should we have to know about a candidate? Whether they are gay? Whether they are vegetarians? Whether they did or didn't change their name following marriage? Whether they adopted their children? Had an abortion? Hold stocks? Send their kids to private school? Married a foreigner? Naturally born? Drinks alcohol? What kind and how much? College grades? Don't shop at Walmart? Traveled to Ethiopia? Owns a winter cabin? Buy foreign cars? Use condoms? Watch porn? What kind and how much? The list goes on.

Shall I keep going?

Everything is important to someone. What's important is not supposed to be their personal life, but their planned changes and protections regarding public legislation. Hence, if they intend to be expanding civil rights and simply ignore religious issues, they should share that they are civil libertarians, not that they are Orthodox Christians.

It sounds like you want legislators that are going to be voting based on their religious nature, not their political opinions. I think that's called a legislative theocracy.

Also, they simply can't enforce those laws, despite the fact that it's been shown to be unconstitutional by SCOPUS. Those six states haven't changed their official constitution though. In fact, in Louisiana, when a legislator tried to introduce a bill to simply re-write that part of the constitution and make it reflect modern law, it was not even voted out of committee by the right-win S***-heads that didn't care.

Way to not read the constitution and ignore federal law which was one of the most major points of immigration and the revolution. Go Christians!
