Black churchgoers break with leading Democrats on marriage amendment

This is just one example of why President Obama, even if he were inclined to, does not come out strongly in support of gay marriage.

America is first and foremost a religious nation, and secondly a democratic one.

I generally agree with the observation about religion. But the stats on gay marriage are moving in a favorable direction across racial and ethnic and class lines, just not across age lines. So eventually the religiously intolerant will lose on this issue. In most of the country.
