I am not very wise on foreign policy or why we should or should not be in Iraq. I am not an Economics Whiz and I don't know what to do about our Economy. Jeremy and I just work hard and save our money and pay our bills. If bad things happen to us it is our mess to clean up and not the governments. I love the freedoms I have in this country and want to maintain them. I don't want a 3rd party in control of my life. I like less taxes because I like the freedom to invest my money in what I choose.
My most valued and strongest reason why I am voting for who I am voting for is tonight in the Vice Presidential debate when the question was posed on Gay marriage one candidate said, "I believe that marriage is between a Man and a Woman and we should hold that union sacred"
The other candidate upheld that marriage was between a Man and a Woman BUT and but is the big thing to me. The other candidate believes that gay couples should hold all the same rights as a married couples. In my opinion that is supporting gay marriage.
In California they are trying to allow gay marriage in the States Constitution.
SAN FRANCISCO—After several weeks of silence on the issue of same-sex marriage, Sen. John McCain has made it official. The presumptive Republican nominee for president has endorsed efforts to ban gay marriage in California.
If Gay marriage is allowed on the California Constitution that means that every place that holds marriages would have to allow gay marriages to occur there and if they did not allow them Marriage would not be Recognized.
That would mean that marriages in our Sacred Temple would not be Recognized in California because gay people would not be allowed to be married there. Young couples would 1st have to be married civilly before they could be married in the temple.
The eternal nature of families is the most important thing to our Heavenly Father and it is the most important thing to me. I support all people that are not afraid to call evil evil.
I don't agree with everything that John McCain says but Marriage and the Sanctity of Marriage is the Most important issue to me because, "The hand that rocks the cradle rules the world"
I add a part of the The Family: A Proclamation to the World. The last sentence is the most important to me during this time of selecting new government officials to rule our great nation.
The family is ordained of God. Marriage between man and woman is essential to His eternal plan. Children are entitled to birth within the bonds of matrimony, and to be reared by a father and a mother who honor marital vows with complete fidelity. Happiness in family life is most likely to be achieved when founded upon the teachings of the Lord Jesus Christ. Successful marriages and families are established and maintained on principles of faith, prayer, repentance, forgiveness, respect, love, compassion, work, and wholesome recreational activities. By divine design, fathers are to preside over their families in love and righteousness and are responsible to provide the necessities of life and protection for their families. Mothers are primarily responsible for the nurture of their children. In these sacred responsibilities, fathers and mothers are obligated to help one another as equal partners. Disability, death, or other circumstances may necessitate individual adaptation. Extended families should lend support when needed.
We warn that individuals who violate covenants of chastity, who abuse spouse or offspring, or who fail to fulfill family responsibilities will one day stand accountable before God. Further, warn that the disintegration of the family will bring upon individuals, communities, and nations the calamities foretold by ancient and modern prophets.
I also add the poem where the saying "The hand that rocks the cradle rules the world". I must do my job as a Latter Day Saint Woman to stand for what is right.
Blessings on the hand of women!
Angels guard its strength and grace,
In the palace, cottage, hovel,
Oh, no matter where the place;
Would that never storms assailed it,
Rainbows ever gently curled;
For the hand that rocks the cradle
Is the hand that rules the world.
Infancy's the tender fountain,
Power may with beauty flow,
Mother's first to guide the streamlets,
From them souls unresting grow--
Grow on for the good or evil,
Sunshine streamed or evil hurled;
For the hand that rocks the cradle
Is the hand that rules the world.
