President
Obama’s view towards same-sex marriage contradicts his own beliefs. Yes, he
supports civil unions for same-sex couples, but that does not guarantee these
couple’s equal rights. Even though states try to provide legal protection for
same-sex marriages sometimes it is not enough because of federal programs. Despite
Obama’s personal beliefs, he conveys states should be able to decide whether or
not they allow gay marriage. As a result, he contradicts himself by not
allowing everyone to have an equal opportunity to marry whom he or she wishes.
Considering Obama encourages same-sex marriage be the discretions of each state
his beliefs are incomplete. Marital couples are protected with more than 1,000
federal rights, unlike same sex couples that cannot even consider themselves
married on federal documentation. Since Obama has changed some of his beliefs
towards same sex marriage he might respond by telling Nava and Dawidoff the
universe is changing every day and so is he. Consequently, he has learned that
same-sex couples have the same abilities as a heterosexual couple to marry, and
be happy. Obama would also let them know he agrees that marriage is a basic
right that should be guaranteed to any couple that wishes to show commitment to
one another.
