I watched the video clip posted on the subject of President Obama's declaration to endorse publicly his views on the subject of Gay Marriages. I listened to his speech as well as watched his physical reaction to the speech and I am not quite sure that he believes in Gay Marriage. I think that the newly found sentiment is a ploy to win the votes of gay and lesbian voters. With this admission President Obama has opened a door that most politicians would never decide to open. I believe that his remark stunned the world. The way he made his speech I truly believe that although the President probably does not approve of gay and lesbian marriages, I do believe he is sympathetic to what they face day to day in society. I think that President Obama used his knowledge of the everyday struggles that same-sex couples endure that he wanted them to know that although he may not agree with their lifestyles he believes that they should be treated just as fair as other traditional couples. President Obama seemed to be very selective about his choice of words so that he would not offend anybody in the gay and lesbian community. President Obama chose to persuasively and adamantly give his support to the gay and lesbian community. Obama uses several persuasive annotation of the struggles concerning the lives of all military orientated personnel by appealing to the,” American Defense”, side of the issue in which homosexuals, as well as heterosexuals, gave their lives to protect and defend this nation. To his credit President Obama uses numerous words of persuasive imagination, but this speech will still cause a recoil because of his public opinion. President Obama stated, “It is important for me to just go ahead and affirm, that I think same sex couples should get married”. This statement should be looked upon for what it is, just an opinion. I also think that President Obama's speech was very effective because it caused a stir that will bring considerable changes to his new campaign.
I honestly believe that Obama does care for the gay community, He thinks that all of Americans should be equal and he has been involved in it for quite some time. The only reason why he brought it up now was because it was a risky thing to do when you just get in office you want to be voted back in for a next term. There are just somethings the government should stay out of especially peoples personal lives. I truly believe that Obama believes that.
