also another point i forgot. you can change the constitution. atleast we can in canada, i sincerly hope you can in the us too.

Dude, my entire post was about a proposed amendment to the constitution. I'm well aware of our nation's ability to change it, but the point was that it's extremely hard to, and once a rule's been set, you're even harder pressed to change it (that only happened once with prohibition).

@Blue: So what happens to the people who get married in one state that allows it, then move to another state that doesn't. There's a clause in the Constitution about states respecting the sovereignty and laws of other states, but this isn't on the scale of simply recognizing a driver's licence from another state. The states would have to treat certain people completely differently, as if they had diplomatic immunity or something. You'd have people marrying whomever they want in one state then moving elsewhere to skirt the law of that state. I'm all about giving more federalistic power to the states, but not on this issue.
