Hillary Clinton, LGBTQ Equality

“Clinton made the promotion of equality for gay people a core value of U.S. foreign policy. Clinton moved the issue of equality for members of the LGBT community to the front of America’s diplomatic agenda; in the process, she gave a boost to human rights for all and a considerable nudge to the inexorable progress of freedom.”- Frida Ghitis, Hillary Clinton’s Global Legacy on Gay Rights, CNN, February 7, 2013

In my life, I have experienced shame and embarrassment for my sexual orientation. In my 15 years as an open and proud homosexual American male, I am inspired through Hillary’s evolution and understanding on equality. When the time came to stand up for LGBTQ people, Hillary Clinton took to the path like Lady Godiva. Championing equality across the world for LGBTQ people and promoting a fundamental human rights necessity for LGBTQ Americans. Hillary Clinton has supported LGBTQ Equality and will continue to advance equality when elected President!

Hillary Clinton understands that Gay Rights are Human Rights and Human Rights are Gay Rights. When I came out in 2003 my parents did not understand and support my sexuality. Twelve years later they have learned and understand now how important my equality and self acceptance are. Hillary Clinton is a woman of the same generation and twenty years ago this was a different world. Through the countless years, evolution and choices Hillary Clinton has furthered the change we see in the world NOT prevented it.
