Nine LGBT newspapers have endorsed Barack Obama for president. Here are a few of the endorsements...
Gay City News:
The Illinois senator has spoken of a politics of hope and change, not surprisingly given a life that has included a father from Kenya and a mother from Kansas, a term as president of the Harvard Law Review and a job as a community organizer on the streets of Chicago.
Between the lines:
BarackObama has asked for and will receive our support, endorsement and anything else we can help them with in the next 60 days. We urge all our readers to educate themselves, their family members and co-workers about the urgency of this election in our lives. Tell them how harmful the last four years have been for those of us living under this assault. Enough is enough. Pick up the phones, register people to vote (last day is Oct. 6), share your stories and please vote for Barack Obama on Nov. 4. because, "Yes we can!"
Washington Blade:
The choice for gay voters — whether fiscally conservative or traditionally liberal — is a no-brainer. Obama represents the country’s best chance to move past partisan gridlock and correct.
Bay Area Reporter:
For LGBT voters, this is an election year unlike any other in recent memory. And in less than three weeks, citizens will elect a new president. For us, the choice is crystal clear: Democrat Barack Obama is the candidate, not only for LGBT Americans, but for all of us.
Gay and Lesbian Times:
On Tuesday, Nov. 4, the gay, lesbian, bisexual, and transgender community will join with our straight allies and elect Sen. Barack Obama the 44th president of the United States. Sen. Obama was raised in a time of hope – a time when America believed in itself and in its place in the world. It was, as Sen. Obama has often said, an era of hope inspired by a young Senator from Massachusetts, John F. Kennedy.
