She'll have to be closet case with a lavender marriage to even stand a chance in the new Republic of Texas.

(Caveat; unless it's Chely Wright. She's very feminine and would likely squeak by before half of the Texans even know that she's gay.)

I'll probably be running my own little tribal kingdom somewhere in the wilderness by then, maybe Duke of Flagstaff or something like that. :p

It'll be someone we've never heard of, because the future is unpredictable and guaranteed to surprise you.

Indeed. LGBT candidates should be treated the same way. I want good policies. I would vote for an LGBTQ candidate if I liked their policies, but they should not expect my vote just based on identity.


I think you missed the irony there friend.

IT doesn't matter your skin color, your sex, your gender, your race, or your creed.

What matters to me is whether you are FUNNY or not.

Nothing significant will change no matter who you choose, except the funny things the president does. Now if im not expecting any changes from a president in my day to day, I would want something entertaining.

That being said, I think it will be Pete Buttigieg.

Probably Buttigieg.

The West won the world not by the superiority of its ideas or values or religion … but rather by its superiority in applying organized violence. Westerners often forget this fact; non-Westerners never do.

Alternate, independent Virginia dominated by a mix of fascists, neo Confederates, and Christian nationalists.
Currently at war with a resistance movement composed of several key cities and counties.
President is Forrest Turner Eckart, who is only loosely based upon certain American far right political figures.
Set in a parallel universe where civilization collapsed in an apocalypse in 2013. This nation is a puppet of the same player as Free Charlottesville, Free Roanoke, etc.

Given his apparent political leanings, it's not a mystery. Look at his policies. Very homophobic, racist, and prudish.
Just think of the Pacific Northwest under a charismatic, theocratic ruler who has many wives, lovers, etc. and was directly appointed by the hand of God. With plenty of both leftist and some rightist policies in place under his enlightened guidance. Very sex-positive laws, too. This ain't your grandfather's theocracy. It's a utopia in the midst of a post apocalyptic Dark Age.
