Would things change overall if people voted based on improving things for those who are LGBT?

Asked by Simone_De_Beauvoir (39052points) December 3rd, 2011

I find this to be an informative chart. Now, I’m not one to generally talk about the assimilationst gay agenda but it is startling to see across the board just how little so many candidates would do to make sure that people who are LGBT have equal rights as all others. I know that people think these matters are ‘special interest’ but what would happen if they weren’t treated as such? What if every voter thought about LGBT issues first (hypothetically) – would things change in terms of other issues as well? Or what is the utility in thinking about the rights of those on the fray rather than the rights of those who are in the majority? What if instead of catering to the lowest common denominator, we catered to the highest?
