Update

Well done Sasha & MaliaObama came into office supporting civil unions, but it wasnt until 2012, with a little nudge from Vice President Joe Biden, that he came out in favor of same-sex marriage.The president said that he initially didnt think the labels for same-sex couples really mattered as long as they had the same rights as heterosexuals. Sasha and Malia helped him see why that wasnt the case.I have to confess my children generally had an impact on me, he said during a town hall in London. People I loved who were in monogamous same-sex relationships explained to me what I should have understood earlier, which is it was not simply about legal rights but about a sense of stigma, that if youre calling it something different it means that somehow it means less in the eyes of society. - Huffington PostFor More Info: http://www.huffingtonpost.com/entry/obama-same-sex-marriage_us_571b9da4e4b0d0042da96ea5?ir=GoodNews&
