My theory!
Social Issues are not the really consequential topics in the presidential race! However, President Obama and his re-election team see this as an opportunity to distract attention from the dismal condition of the economy and his health care program.
A May 12 Associated Press article is titled “Gay marriage, abortion back in campaign spotlight“. The first paragraph reads, “Abortion and gay marriage. For years, they’ve been lumped together as the paramount wedge issues of U.S. politics — hot-button topics in the vortex of sexuality, personal freedom and public policy.”
Vice President Joe Biden appearing on Meet the Press this past Sunday said he had no problem with two people of the same sex marrying. That brought a substantial response from the news media but no remarks from the Republican Party. The White House appeared to try to evade the issue even as the commentators quoted the president’s earlier statement that his views on gay and lesbian marriage were evolving.
Everyone thinks VP Biden is just a fool who can’t keep his mouth shut. That is his reputation. The president’s re-election committee is counting on you believing that. So he appears on MTP this past Sunday and has the media mouths going.
What you do not realize is that the Obama team has accomplished a diversion. Defending the president’s economic program is impossible. They realized they needed to change the topic. They have succeeded. Obama’s ability to argue the social issues is his strong suite.
Romney’s strength is business and the economy. The Republican Party wants to talk about social issues. Obama wants to change the subject and the Republicans are giving him a gift. The AP reports “Republicans controlling the House are pressing for cuts to food stamps, health care and pensions for federal workers as an alternative to an automatic 10 percent cut to the military next year.” It’s a perfect diversion.

I have read so many articles on the topic of the blogger lovers but this article is really a nice piece of writing,
keep it up.
Social issues these days are mostly related to poverty and health insurance. We would really love all social issues to be solved by the government. .:”`;
