Download or read book Same-Sex Marriage and the Constitution written by Evan Gerstmann and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2008-02-25 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The revised and expanded second edition of Same-Sex Marriage and the Constitution makes the case that the Constitution has long protected the right to marry, and that this protection includes the right to marry a person of the same gender. No other book makes this argument. This book addresses other issues, such as why same-sex marriage is completely different, both practically and constitutionally, from polygamy and incest, and it debunks the myth that pro-same-sex marriage decisions have created a backlash against either gays and lesbians or the Democratic Party.
