Why is Obama's favorite topic of discussion, outside of Climate Change and himself, so focused on Gays?
Answer: Build a network of acceptance, or Safe Zones, with the disenfranchised, and they'll do anything for you. Lie, cheat, you name it.

Safe Zone
Purdue University Safe Zone members include students, staff, faculty, and community members who have attended a three hour workshop exploring the unique needs and concerns LGBTQ people face in Higher Education while also building their knowledge, skills, and abilities for creating a more inclusive and affirming campus for all students. Additionally, Safe Zone members display a placard in a visible location such as a door to an office or residence hall that identifies them as a friend, supporter, and campus resource for anyone seeking information or a listening ear. This placard identifies dedicated safe spaces on campus for LGBTQ people to connect with allies to the community.
During the three hour Safe Zone training, members develop an understanding of LGBTQ terminology and symbols, history, concepts of privilege and identity development, interact with a panel of LGBTQ speakers, and build skills for identifying and interrupting language and behavior that may be discriminatory. Campus resources and reporting processes are also shared. Upon completion of the workshop, attendees can choose to become a Safe Zone member by completing a contract expressing their commitment to supporting diversity and inclusion at Purdue University.
