I fuckin love that guy.

Swoon. I'd have that man's gay babies. That's my generation.

Cory Booker is the shit. When he isn't running into a burning down house to save a neighbor, he states gay rights in most blunt and direct manner possible. I have a lot of hope for his political future.

Love this guy. But he's so good, I worry that he's too good to be true. It's like a scandal is just waiting to happen. (see Edwards, John) GAH I hope he's as good as he seems!

Republicans think religious fanatics should decide who has civil rights. This is known as insanity and historically unsustainable. But it is politically expedient. And Republicans would sell their mothers to get elected. In fact, they'd sell their mother's, sister's and daughter's lives to get elected.

Fans of Booker should find/download/watch Street Fight, a documentary about his first (unsuccessful) run for mayor of Newark. It gives you a pretty good sense of where he's coming from.

@7 Unpossible to post this video too much.

@7, I missed it in January and am glad to have seen it now. And I'm with @8 about there being no such thing as posting it too much.

Next black president?

Damn! The man stands up for what he believes! No equivocation! No "Let the states decide" bullshit! He says "This is right and it should be done now!" Wish we had a president like that! If I was condemned to live in NJ, he would have my vote!

@8 & @9 - Actually, they posted here 3 weeks ago, possible also prior to that. The video is from January.

I agree that it's awesome, and said so in a previous post.

I was just pointing out another case where the staff don't even read their own site, or are just rehashing and hoping no one notices.

This man is our future.

CORY BOOKER FOR PRESIDENT 2016!

Why does the stroy start off with THE BLACK MAYOR? Umm yeah...we can all see that. No crap Sherlock.

It's a sop to people who only think about one issue. Of course gay marriage is a human right. But Corey is protecting the interests of the greedy Wall Street interests, and he keeps his left flank covered by advocating what is, after all, a popular issue among young people and superficial liberals. So he's right, yes, but for the wrong reasons, and bad one at that!

Booker flows with the times. He is self seeking. I remember hearing something about his antigay stance during his stanford days but all record of it seems to be missing. Btw if you are not over 40 then you wouldnt know so save the comments for those who might remember this. Although it is nice to think cory booker believes what he says history proves poiticians are self seeking creatures and newark still sucks just as much as it did before booker ever came onto the scene. What exactly has he accompllished?

Please wait...
