It all comes down to demographics, knowing the place to take the poll for the results you want. Most polls are dishonest due to this fact. Most polls are flawed as I believe John states a truth, say one thing and then do another. What American's do not understand is that the United States is a Constitutional Republic meaning a government of the people for the people. So it comes down to a simple rule, the state of America depends on "we the people". I do not believe this 6 in 10 in America.

I think the pole was taken in a Gay bar close to closing when everyone was intoxicated and not rational. Wakeup this is the real world. No out gay candidate could get 6 out of 10 votes. Maybe 2508!Does this mean we should stop worrying about Prop 8 in California? It will loose by 60%? If This is true than why have we lost almost every anti-gay election?

Hopefully people in our country are progressing in the RIGHT direction. I was recently reading about Berlin's gay mayor and he is someone to look up to as a gay person. Maybe we'll see more here soon. I am really , though happily, surprised

While it's nice to be optimistic, we have to fight for just the basic human rights. So it's very hard to believe that 6 in 10 is an accurate number for our country. Where was this poll held?
