In a personal video posted on Current TV January 17, Al Gore spoke out in favor of the freedom to marry.
The former vice president stated: “I think that gay men and women ought to have the same rights as heterosexual
men and women, to make contracts, to have hospital visiting rights, to join together in marriage, and I don’t
understand why it is considered by some people to be a threat to heterosexual marriage to allow it by gays and lesbians.”
"Shouldn’t we be promoting the kind of faithfulness and loyalty to one’s partner regardless of sexual orientation?"
