Can you elaborate? I'm honestly not sure what your post has to do with the topic. Obama was against gay marriage before he was for gay marriage. Obama was against the Patriot Act before he was for it. I could go on and on about the things Obama has changed his position on. This thread wasn't in defense of Obama or Romney. If anything it was in favor of Ryan, and I don't even like the guy.
EDIT: And he hasn't "modified" his positions, he has "evolved".
Obama hasn't flipped floped; he's simply more experienced and shown an ability to alter course - as opposed to some who stay the course even when rocks are present.
Therein lies the difference between a leader and a charlatan; a leader admits mistakes, a charlatan makes excuses.
On some issues I would agree with you, but what about gay marriage? He "evolved" on the issue right? I turn 28 tomorrow and already know where I stand on gay marriage. This man is 51 years old and is "evolving" on certain issues? Sounds like flip flopping to me.
This really is not hat difficult.
Until recently, it was unknown whether or not a candidate for national office could take a stand inn favor of gay marriage and still win an election.
The dude is a politician.
