MORE GAY LEADERS
This today.
At German Chancellor’s Side, a New Political Power Broker Emerges

Guido Westerwelle, started bringing his partner to public affairs in 2004. Not that he had been in, but bringing the partner to a high visibility affair is way out.

This could make Westerwelle the highest level gay political leader in the world. Well, the highest level known gay political leader.
Pretty good. Glad to see it. I hope that he is not a right winger! Well, he is conservative enough to link up with Merkel.
