Portland Phoenix Jeff Inglis interviewed Mark Henkel - Apr 2009
from National Polygamy Advocate · host Mark Henkel
National Polygamy Advocate ™ Mark Henkel was interviewed by Jeff Inglis, the Managing Editor for The Portland Phoenix newspaper, in Portland, Maine, on April 30, 2009. In the previous week, on April 22, 2009, the Maine State Legislature had conducted a Public Hearing on a pending law to legalize same sex marriage. 4,000 people attended this major event, including Mark Henkel who presented his "Neither For Nor Against" Testimony. In this historic speech, Mark Henkel pointed out that which he called as the "Marriage Control" hypocrisies of both the "YES" and "NO" sides at the hearing. Reporters Deirdre Fulton and Emily Parkhurst reported about Mark Henkel's Testimony in the April 30, 2009 issue of the newspaper. The Managing Editor of this weekly newspaper also attended the Public Hearing. He likewise witnessed Mark Henkel's Testimony as the National Polygamy Advocate ™; and, he thereafter also sought a separate interview for a later article to be published on May 13, 2009, titled, "After the Battle - Where will same-sex marriage be in 2010?" Seeking to write this report himself, the Managing Editor was fascinated to learn more of (and to report on) the "Polygamy Rights Win-Win Solution to end the marriage debate" (as was first explained in Mark Henkel's Tesimony at the Public Hearing). He had indeed understood how Mark Henkel's win-win proposal really could be a way that both sides could embrace and even ensure that everyone would be fully free. (NOTE: As a consequence of that Public Hearing, the Maine State Legislature affirmatively voted on May 6, 2009, to become the 5th State to officially codify the legalization of same sex marriage. Even so, later that same year, on November 3, 2009, a Maine "People's Veto" referendum successully repealed that newly passed state law in Maine. Five and half years later after that, though, on June 26, 2015, the US Supreme Court decision, Hollingsworth v. Hodges, fully mandated legalized same sex marriage in all 50 of the United States.) This interview was conducted in a professional and genuinely friendly manner - even with both enjoying laughter together. In addition to providing a comprehensive education about UCAP, Unrelated Consenting Adult Polygamy, the positivity with which this interview was conducted provides an excellent example, in and of itself, of how political liberals and conservatives can and should be able to more successfully discuss issues to solve things together. http://www.NationalPolygamyAdvocate.com
