Has Obama followed through on his LGBT promises?

“No, he’s not doing as much as he should. LGBT issues are a hot potato for him, and he’s waiting for it to cool down. But he should face it now. He seems more worried about securing his reelection rather than doing the right thing.”

“Yes, but he could be getting a lot more accomplished. I think he has good intentions. He’s sincere and well-meaning. I’m confident that Obama will make every effort to fulfill his LGBT agenda, in time.”

Tiffany Mackintosh
student | Bridgeport, Conn.
“No. He’s all talk and no action. A lot of things he’s said he would do, he hasn’t done yet. As far as I’m concerned, he hasn’t even gotten out of the starting gate. He’s trying to be liked too much instead of doing what he’s supposed to do.”

Zoe Wright
student | Wilmington, Del.
“No, he’s not following through with his LGBT pledges. He’s avoiding them by hiding behind the recession and other things. LGBT people don’t seem to be a priority for him. But they should be. He should be giving their issues more attention.”
