>>Isn't a proposition like Prop 8 at it's core an effort by a group of people to impose their belief that the definition of marriage be expanded? Yes, but it's the difference between inclusion and exclusion. It makes no effort to force a change in personal lifestyle or behavior on anyone else merely to prevent exclusion from the definition, which is why I support it.
