Tulsi Gabbard came out swinging in her campaign announcement speech. She's the devil coming for the disembodied heads the Olde Guard.
Be afraid, Corporate America, be very, very afraid.

@Graylight True that. I guess my question is whether we can have candidates who change their views and evolve? In the case of Gabbard, her anti-gay views were from her early 20's when she was involved in her father's politics. And she's quite open about what made her views change.

@CopperCicada Does she not hold anti-gay views now?

@Graylight From what I can tell, she changed her stance in 2012. And since then has supported LBGT rights.
The Human Rights Campaign (HRC (the hurricane symbol peeps)) gave her a rating of 100% during the 115th congress, and something like 90% during the previous two sessions. She's opposed the [i]Defense of Marriage Act[/i] and supported the ruling in [i]Obergeffel v. Hodges[/i]. She co-sponsored the [i]Respect for Marriage Act[/i] during her first term in congress.
I would be more than interested to know what her anti-gay views are *now, today*. Not in her early 20's.

@Graylight If you have some source on her current anti-gay politics, I'd like to know.
