I am vice president of states of America gloom the president sets the policy.

I am absolutely comfortable.

With the fact that.

Men marrying men and women marrying women didn't.

Heterosexual men women and -- -- time of the same exact rights all the civil rights almost civil liberties.

From the mr.

Biden has Obama has not endorse gay marriage was Michelle feels reporter for the daily caller web -- she's in for Mary -- hands evening.

-- from Washington Juan -- -- it seems inevitable -- the President Obama will endorse gay marriage you think he'll do so before the election.

Why not from now now I think I think what we've got here in the situation where.

There's nothing to be gained by the Obama campaign by doing it before the election.

He's indicated the key word here bill is evolving.

That his position is evolving in the evolution is all towards endorsing gay marriage to the signal is sent.

To -- very key constituency for him the game.

LB GT however have not quite sure I'll get.

-- initials but you you know what I doubt that's already has no business.

What's the -- And -- endorsing gay married not gonna get conservative people -- form anyway so now when -- I just think this is a good point you make.

Because the Catholic vote is critical in this election but actually a majority of Catholics support gay marriage.

There's a big -- the big issue on the ballot in North Carolina.

Coming up and again there's an effort to ban gay marriage and Obama as opposed to that but again that the state he needs he doesn't wanna get to Lebanese.

Tomorrow is here he's opposed to the north Carolinians.

Trying to say not in -- states I don't know I don't know the downside for him coming out -- Doing what Biden gives -- -- Green Zone OK with me what are you so much there's no way he's going to endorse gay marriage North Carolina as a swing state that Democrats are released early.

I think he's oppose -- -- that law in North Carolina is Gloria.

Alienated everybody does want gay marriage North Carolina is already done -- a reality if he were to come out in favor of -- marriage.

He would really energize the conservative base they would you know your -- ready because he doesn't want that law he comes out and said I want gay marriage to to happen that I want it yes that I want in my dad they will energize the conservative base -- -- out it.

Everybody watching all millions is it anybody who thinks -- President Obama doesn't want gay marriage freezing.

-- -- Why don't you always.

And he did -- that.

Yeah Biden just like by everybody knows why this isn't sure Grady.

But yeah.

That's a draw that line now make a full let himself we'll get.

You know you know everybody knows they share -- everybody's playing along and yeah.

Yeah yeah.

I want to -- yeah.

Answer -- why he's not worried about you bill he'll let me it's not that let me tell of course he's worried about Hewitt as as a broadcaster let me just tell you something.

When you talk to black votes when you talk the Hispanic votes and remember they are key in time to time.

And yeah.

Bank has been and you want and I didn't even think -- that.

Black Americans.

And we saw this in California with the referendum now.

Borrow a whole lose and this could suppress the turnout.

Lafayette.

Barack Obama boo -- Put up the banner of -- one game -- Very good one I knew there was a reason you're here -- you.

-- -- That's exactly -- is seen as an alien.

Alienate athlete getting that in his hair and he's not gonna win the election -- all this president cares about is getting reelected he doesn't care about the poor -- no actual.

Now now now this pregnancy to a hard time trying to raise money then it's five predecessors combined -- all of -- About in my not so -- wife -- in Switzerland you raise money to I'm and I know he can -- -- the.

To come on how my eyes and saw this already so once again why didn't dull.

Now think about it this way.

The -- buddy Joseph Biden he alienates all the African Americans who oppose gay marriage all Hispanics.

Still Biden you gotta just you gotta just take them off the trail lock them in place.

I don't think he alienated anybody know basically Edwards -- a president that's the policy everybody is used to.

I don't know why no heartbeat away from the office.

And it -- I got a problem.

Remember you also got a factor in here.

Bill as compared to what I remember Rodney is is said that he will support a ban on gay marriage and he's also against -- that -- eight on foreign policy you -- apparently because the pressure coming from.

Hard right I -- Rodney -- Romney's pitch gonna run on traditional he's not yeah involved with this so.

Yeah -- -- don't get it why why -- other than everybody knows Romney's position especially in the gate and I.

How we got on to Romney is a -- -- you didn't like it never gonna -- -- and as a way it is it's Biden who screwed up yeah eighty or maybe I could see debate thank you Michelle filling and we appreciate -- --
