Barack Obama didn't just endorse gay marriage...

14. Not everything is under the jurisdiction of the federal government.

Marriage is under the administration of state law not federal.

The President is taking action to try and get DOMA reversed, again a Congressional action not an executive.

During the Obama administration the Federal Governmnet has taken a consistent, aggressive and successful stance of protecting the civil rights of the GLBT community.

Time is now on our side and the rest of the rights at the state and city level will be achieved.

There is one other aspect that you have failed to acknowledge and that is the power of the President's opinion outside of the United States. Millions of GLBT individuals and families outside of the US realized that their situation change when the President of the US spoke out for them as well.
