Proposition 8 Supporters Thank Barack Obama

It has been reported by CBS News Correspondent John Blackstone, that those campaigning in California for Proposition 8, which would again make gay marriage illegal, believe they’ll get a lot of unintentional help from Barack Obama on Election Day.

“We thank Barack Obama, even though he’s not supporting it, for helping us,” says Sonja Eddings Brown, of an anti-gay-marriage group called Protect Marriage. “We think it’s going to push us over the top.”

The belief is Obama will bring African-American voters out in record numbers.  It is also believed the African-American voters are typically against same-sex marriage, as well as other GLBT issues.
