I believe the U.S. has been way too silent on the brutality, the lack of human rights in the Muslim world for women.

We are all human beings and I believe that we all should have equal rights.

I'm a Christian woman, but I believe in human rights. I do not go into people's bedrooms. I appoint people based on their capabilities, not their sexual orientation.

I believe in the power of the human spirit.

I believe all Americans who believe in freedom, tolerance and human rights have a responsibility to oppose bigotry and prejudice based on sexual orientation.

I believe that the whole human race is the family of God.
