Manny Ramirez's political beliefs are often opaque and nuanced.

For instance, during the Prop 8 debates, Manny refused to endorse either side and instead tried to gather signatures for a proposition he had drafted that would have forced all adults to join in matrimonial groups of five of either gender, selected personally and by supercomputers of his design. These "star-marriages", Manny contended, was the only social configuration guaranteed to bring about a "Seventh World" of peace, plenty and sexy misunderstandings that would ensure the future of humanity.

Although Manny easily obtained the necessary signatures, at the last moment he pulled the proposition from the ballots declaring: "They just ain't ready, baby."
