The CNS News website reports today (December 20, 2010) that former President Jimmy Carter says the US would be willing to elect a gay president "in the near future."
Carter made his remarks on the Big Think website, which describes itself as a "global forum connecting people and ideas."
Asked if the US is ready for a gay president, Carter said, "I would say the answer is yes. I don't know about the next election, but I think in the near future. Because step by step, we have realized that this issue of homosexuality has the same adverse and progressive elements as when we dealt with the race issue 50 years ago."
"Yes, I would say the answer is yes," Carter added.
