Marriage is indeed not an issue the federal government
has any constitutional authority to interfere with.
Though I don't care about social security inheritance,
I do harbor hidden motives in promoting an agenda of
gay activism: to help erode monogamy in the long run
(as a libertarian you accept maximum freedom of
choice; providing alternatives to monogamy is
maximizing free choice). 
However we both agree America is a conservative nation
and it would seem monogamy is not immediately
threatened. 
But I accept devolution arguments because the more red
states struggle against gay marriage, the more of a
counterreaction is instigated- continuing a
self-perpetuating struggle. That is how the status quo
is altered.
