You're pretty badly out of date. More than half the country has supported same-sex marriage for some time. Nearly 3/5ths now support it. http://www.washingtonp

For some time being a couple of years since Prop 8 PASSED framed against a history of human existence of how many years?

Forgive me if I'm skeptical of the accuracy of an online poll. Prop 8 failed the popular vote 6 years ago in what is generally characterized as the most gay-friendly state in the country. I am skeptical that the politics have shifted sufficiently that the median state now is further than the maximum state was in 2008. Realize that only 17 states have legalized gay marriage, and only three of those states have passed a popular vote (all three of which were in the past 18 months). I am skeptical that the median of this country is really as progressive as you think it is. Edit: in the three states that passed a popular vote, none were as high as you are claiming the entire country is. Maryland: 52%, Maine: 53%, Washington 54%

  Online poll? What are you talking about? It's a Washington Post/ABC poll, those are conducted through standard phone methods[0]. It is widely known that the full population is more liberal than the voting population. Why do you think Republicans try to block voter registration and lower turnout?
