How Long Til Our First Openly Gay President?

[MJAlltheWay24]

Barack Obama had a historic milestone when he broke the barrier for African Americans. Hillary Clinton has a pretty good chance to break the barrier for women.

 

How long until we have our first openly gay President?

[Run To State]

4-8 years. Symbolism over substance...

[UKMustangFan]

I think it'll be sooner than later.

 

I'll say two POTUS from whomever wins in November.

So you're automatically disqualifying them as qualified because of their sexual preference?

[TexasRanger]

Guessing within the next 20 years.

 

If I don't like the canidate please don't call me a gay hater, just putting that out early.

[MJAlltheWay24]

I was thinking about 16 years from now. Assuming either of these candidates only serves one term. Then the next President goes a full 8.

[Hellcats]

This generation of young people are extremely tolerant and open minded; however, they are going have to raise voting age kids to outnumber the old school ideas about homosexuality.

[75center]

Better part of two generations I would think.

[HammerTime]

I thought it's well known that HRC is gay? Allegedly....

[bugatti]

James Buchanan was the first gay President, by most accounts.

[lawildcat]

I don't vote for candidates based on their sex or sexual orientation.

[TheDeuce]

Not any time soon, IMO.

[plantmanky]

I thought we already had one?

The next "non-white male" demo to be elected is a Hispanic.

The next "non-white male" demo to be elected is a Hispanic.

 

Hillary could have taken care of that if she had chosen a Hispanic VP instead of another white male that just speaks Spanish.
