WASHINGTON – Three openly gay Jewish candidates have been elected to the US House of Representatives and will begin their terms in January 2011: Long-time Massachusetts legislator Barney Frank, the mayor of Providence, Rhode Island, David Cicilline, and Colorado's Jared Polis.I am not saying I am interested in that position yet, knowing zilch about the hours, the wages, the perks and the locale*. But re gayness - is it really a prerequisite these days?
(*) I guess it would be convenient to be a citizen too...
