Current Event

"Obama Faces Questions on Federal Fight for Same Sex Marriage" is a recent article written and posted on ABC news.com. 

Focus Points:

1.) - Obama has not always believed in same sex marriage, he recently changed his position on the issue and said after time with his evolving viewpoints he now agrees with gay marriage. 
2.) - He took up the fight to repeal the Defense Of Marriage Act publicly.
3.) - Mitt Romney thinks we should put into place a constitutional amendment that bans same sex marriage.

Questions:

1.) Is Mitt Romney completely against the idea of gay marriage or is that what he thinks the strong conservative voters want to hear?
2.) Why did Obama not have an opinion on the issue? Is it okay with him acting like Switzerland considering its such a huge problem right now and so controversial?
3.) Should the president be portrayed as a super star on television shows or is that disrespecting his position of power?
