8. BO was a board member of the Joyce Foundation that funds the Violence Policy Center (VPC).
Joyce also offered BO the position as its president.

VPC’s primary goal is to ban handguns.

Would an anti-abortion group select a pro-abortion person for its president? NO!

Would an anti-handgun group select a pro-handgun person for its president? NO!

BO bears the mark of an anti-handgun supporter, a fact that will be noted by voters who recognize that handguns are the most effective, efficient tool for self-defense, the choice of 850,000 sworn law enforcement officers.

BO should promise voters “I will veto every bill that comes to me as president that infringes upon the right of law-abiding citizens to keep and bear arms for self-defense.”

Without that specific promise, BO could easily follow Gore and Kerry to defeat.
