This week Hillary Clinton told Ellen DeGeneres that she will “defend gay rights as President and eliminate inequality for same sex couples in federal law”.<\/p>\n
She shared a story about a gay male couple [who lived next door to her parents] denied hospital visitation because they weren’t considered “family” under current legislation. One of the men got sick, and they were faced with a horrible situation. See the video below.<\/p>\n
Elsewhere in the interview, Ellen and Hillary talk about the possibility of quitting the race for the Democratic presidential nomination because she’s behind.<\/p>\n
And Hillary says: “You know, boys used to say that to me all the time.<\/p>\n
“And I figured I know this contest is close. I don’t think either one of us should get out. We should let people vote. There are a lot of states that haven’t voted yet. They deserve a chance to have their votes counted, and I just feel like I’m doing this for myself, obviously because I believe so much in what our country can be again once we finally get through with President Bush and get back to being the America we know and love.”<\/p>\n\n\n
