Rudy Firmly Pro-Abortion
Although I actually do agree with Giuliani's stance on this issue, I think he comes off somewhat unstable- I agree in the sense that I too personally disagree with it, but I do not think that it is the government's place to impose laws on something that is deeply personal- the government already has too much of a say on what people can and cannot do, and something like abortion is a huge issue for the government to intervene in and outlaw altogether. However, Giuliani says that he would be in favor of supporting alternatives to abortion if there were any- such as adoption- but what does that mean? I am very much in favor of adoption as well, but to someone listening to that he may come off as a person ashamed of being pro-choice- a "soft" pro-choicer who wants to appeal to the other side of the issue as well. Although I too could be described as a "soft" pro-choicer, if I were in politics I would not say something such as being supportive of alternatives simply because the only legit alternative is adoption; everyone already knows and is aware of the option of adoption. That being said, I do think that his stance will appeal to many people, and I definitely do agree on there being restrictions on abortion like he says.
