Some African-Americans think Obama takes their votes for granted

“He can have the gay pride celebration in the White House, he can have Lady Gaga in the White House and he’s in the White House today because of the civil rights movement and the price that was paid for civil rights,” said the Rev. William Owens, the president of the Coalition of African-American Pastors, a group that opposes Obama’s gay marriage stance. “He has met with the Latinos; he meets with everything except for the people who put him where he is.”
