But the Human Rights Campaign brought American politics another step into the 21st Century on August 9th with an LGBT issues forum featuring all but two of the Democratic contenders for the White House. Senators Joe Biden and Chris Dodd cited scheduling conflicts. Republican candidates were also invited, but each either declined or ignored the challenge. The 2-hour event was co-sponsored and televised live by the LOGO cable television channel. Bloomberg News commentator MARGARET CARLSON served as moderator, and each presidential hopeful in turn faced questions from a panel consisting of JONATHAN CAPEHART of the Washington Post, lesbian rock icon MELISSA ETHERIDGE, and HRC Executive Director JOE SOLMONESE. On this week’s program and "This Way Out" programs in the next two weeks, we'll highlight the responses of all six participants in this historic event, and reactions to them.
