Prop 8

As most of us know, California actually managed to ban gay marriage with Proposition 8 this election. How did this happen? Well, the people of California voted, and more of them decided to ban it than to allow it. But then some of the people of California got angry. There have been protests not only in California, but other states as well, including Michigan. But what's really at stake here? If California actually decides to overturn Prop 8, they are listening to the angry minority rather than the majority. What happens to the votes of the people who voted for the ban on gay marriage? They don't matter. If I get enough of my Republican friends to protest the fact that Obama won the presidency, can we get it changed to McCain? I really want to know.
