Barack Obama speaks out on Gays; Lesbians; African-Americans

COLUMBIA, S.C. – A Grammy-winning singer whose role in a Barack Obama campaign event riled gay activists served as master of ceremonies of a gospel concert promoting the Democratic presidential hopeful Sunday night.
Barack Obama is defending himself amongst the LGBT (Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, and Transgender) community. Obama has to choose between keeping his gospel singer and oppose Gays or ditching the singer and angering Black Christians.
Obama did not attend the event, but in a video played for more than 2,000 at the Township Auditorium he called the evening’s acts “inspirational talent” that were among his favorites.

This man is scarier than Hillary. I cannot imagine having a President who demonstrates that he doesn’t understand the concept of showing respect for every man or woman who have given their “last full measure of devotion” under the flag of the United States by putting your hand over your heart or if you are former military, saluting the flag during the Star Spangled Banner or Pledge of Allegiance.
I think this man is fake as can be, and Anti-American in his demeanor and I do not trust him to be a leader of a country who’s flag he will not show respect for! JMHO.
