We all know that the economy & job creation is the number one issue facing most Americans. But it's definitely not the only issue...
A very interesting article was released by the Dallas Voice, which provides a chart featuring Obama, the GOP presidential hopefuls and where they stand on key LGBT issues in our country. Suffice to say, there isn't a lot of surprises on this chart (except for who is on the top of the list), but it's a good indicator of who has the LGBT community and their civil rights in mind more than the others.
As for Rick Perry? He charted in last place along with Bachmann, Gingrich, Santorum & McCotter. Romney doesn't do much better, which shows just how far right the GOP is going these days.
Ron Paul is somewhat respectable in 4th place.

How will this and other civil rights issues play out this electoral season?
