Nate silver gay

Silver admits that being gay has helped him understand difference and move beyond the boundaries of traditional reporting.

"If you grow up gay, or in a household that's agnostic, when most people are religious, then from the get-go, you are saying that there are things that the majority of society believes that I don't believe," Silver said in an interview with The Guardian.

But, Silver told The Guardian, being a geek was harder than being gay since he's always been a geek and never really fit in.

“I’ve always felt like something of an outsider,” Silver told The Guardian.

Gay marriage wasn’t the first issue on which society changed its mind, and it surely won’t be the last. (That was one of the points made by Justice Anthony Kennedy in his opinion for the Court on Friday.)

But there’s another lesson about the rise in support for gay marriage that seems less likely to be heeded. And in 2008, not only Republican candidates but also Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton were publicly (if not privately) opposed to gay marriage.

There were no openly gay students in my high school. On the same day that Obama became the first African-American elected to the White House, voters in liberal California approved Proposition 8, which enacted a constitutional ban on gay marriage in the state.

Today, however, a number of states more conservative than California have voted to approve gay marriage on the ballot.

There was no legal gay marriage in the United States until Massachusetts permitted it in 2004. Moreover, his father's name is Brian David Silver and his mother's name is Sally Silver. Besides, in the interview with Out Magazine, Nate stated that: "He is sexually gay but ethnically straight." 

On the other hand, he also supports same-sex marriage but he never thought of doing the same things yet.

In fact, it’s been an unusual issue. Back in 2012, he became successful with the correct prediction of all 50 states during the 2012 presidential election.
