New Jersey is debating marriage equality right now, and Governor Christie wants to put it on the ballot for a voter referendum, and this is a really amazing speech by Newark's mayor, Cory Booker about it. He nails it. ^_^ Mayor Booker Responds to Question about NJ Marriage Equality Referendum - YouTube
Well holy hell! A politician that doesnt BS & actually gets it totally right! There definitely needs to be more people like Mr Booker working in the government - at ALL levels.
Cory Booker is pretty awesome. You guys should really watch "Street Fight" and "Brick City," both of which are on Netflix, both of which are about the city of Newark, both of which feature Cory Booker.
Everything I've seen about Booker has impressed me, he's one of the few genuinely inspiring people in US politics, I think.
