So its the Tyranny or the majority, that I have to put up Obama too right? Which by the way is against gay marriage.

Not all states use the Electoral College (4 to 6 don't), more and more left leaning states want pure majority.



The election of President is not a direct election by U.S. citizens. See Electoral College:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electoral_College_%28United_Sta...

Also, each presidential term is limited to 4 years.


That’s why there is Congress. That’s why there is a Supreme Court. That’s why there are independent state and local governments. That’s why there are term limits.


You are losing sight of the fact that restricting gay people from marrying is unjust.
