25. Comments from Obama's entourage supported by his gun-control history is cause to worry unless he
pledges " I will veto every bill that comes to me that infringes upon the right of law abiding citizens to keep and bear arms for defense of self and state and that includes renewing the assault weapons ban".

Absent such a pledge from Obama's lips, I will worry that his key advisers and benefactors like Kennedy, Joyce Foundation, Annenberg Foundation will pressure him to support a renewed AWB.

I see what happened in CA with Prop 8 and how Obama said he wanted people to vote in favor of same-sex marriage but that he personally opposed same-sex marriage and I realize Obama does not always mean what he says.

That may also be true about his promise to protect Second Amendment rights.

Time will tell but to paraphrase Olive Cromwell, "Put your trust in Obama but keep your powder dry to fight for RKBA."
