AMES, IA At the Family Leadership Summit in Ames, Iowa on Saturday, Republican presidential candidates made it clear to social conservatives and evangelicals that theyre not going to give up their fight against same-sex marriage.
Since the U.S. Supreme Court decision last month legalizing same-sex marriage across the country, the Republican Party has been split between those who recognize that the country should accept the decision and move on, and those who will keep pushing to abolish the high court, allow states to ban same-sex marriage, or to resist and reject judicial tyranny.
It was sad to see more than a few Republicans, including more than a few 2016 candidates, publicly saying its the law of the land, its settled, surrender and move on, Texas Sen. Ted Cruz said during the event. There is something profoundly wrong when republicans running for president are reading from Barack Obamas talking points.
The event featured 10 presidential hopefuls interviewed by Republican political consultant Frank Luntz. Between candidates, conservative leaders invoked religion and spoke about the need for the next president to support socially conservative ideologies.
