Gay Congressman, Jared Polis Speaks During DNC About Diversity…
Gay Colorado Congressman Jared Polis, a new dad, spoke about diversity and his own family the DNC last night.
“We are a diverse country, but we are one country,” he said. “And we are at our best when we come together as Americans, not despite our differences, but in celebration of them.”
“Diversity is America’s strength, and only by working together, as one nation, can we form a more perfect union,” he said, according to a transcript posted by Politico. “That is why President Obama brought to Washington a vision for one America—an America in which we can overcome divisions of red and blue to make our country greater.… And it is why Barack Obama became the first sitting president in American history to show his personal support for same-sex marriage.”
