You've have the chance to tell the founders of the US two things

The setting is when the US constitution is being signed. You are teleported there in what you're wearing now. And you have the knowledge of what you know from history. What two things would you say to the founders of the US?

  • [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Gaara444 The actual Marriage itself is yes, a Federal issue. I should have been more clear. The process of [i]getting Married[/i] however is a State issue. You need a marriage license to get married. The Federal Government does not care who gets married, just like they don't care who get's to legally drive. So that issue is brought up to the States to deal with. [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Marinade Just a point of curiosity, aren't there federal benefits from being married? Meaning the people that want same-sex marriages recognized at the federal level are only trying to get equal benefits? [/quote][/quote] Okay. I do only have one more question then. Does the Defence of Marriage Act prohibit same-sex couples from receiving federal benefits regardless of what their state's laws are?
