Marilyn Musgrave stated on September 22, 2006 that marriage was the most important question facing us today.

This sparked an interesting question: If you had to choose between saving the life of a solider or preventing a gay marriage, which would you choose?

We ventured out into Colorado Congressional District 4 to ask both candidates--Marilyn Musgrave and Angie Paccione--this question.

Their responses are quite telling:

the way in which your question was posed reminded me of the way the paparazzi would pester and corner celebrities while trying to go about their lives, not a true journalist.

Thank you for making these interviews available to a wide audience.

Whether the questions were pesky or not, clearly both candidates were approached while in a business district, not at church or home or anyplace that could be considered private.

This video would play equally well as a silent movie. The behavior of each candidate clearly demonstrated their commitment (or not) to compassion, to humanity. Their mannerisms, and the company they were keeping at the time, was completely consistent with what they said.

This may indicate a new way to make political decisions: vote for the more courteous person. Chances are, that's someone you would want watching your back!
