I've kinda been pulling for Obama the entire time. All the Republican candidates that kept being put out there seriously frightened me. Like gave me pause and made me think "oh god, what if this person is elected?". For a few reasons. I feel like if any of those people were elected, my life would be extremely difficult. I am a female and a minority. I already get profiled because you can't tell what race I am. I'm glad I got out of GA because I felt like I was going to have to start carrying my birth certificate around with me wherever I went. And then the women's rights issues started and.. it's just a horrid nightmare.

Gay rights is also a huge issue for me. I'm not gay myself, but I have enough friends who are (and beyond that not letting people do as the rest of us do is just wrong), so I am quick to take a stance against anyone that doesn't support it. I kept saying "well Mitt is the lesser evil" out of who else was in the running for his party, but now I'm just annoyed.
