Government has no place dealing with social issues at all. This is why the nation is so divided. The government is supposed to be limited to dealing only with it's own legitimate functions. When it strayed into social issues, the govenment became polariazed with the division getting wider and deeper all the time.
Many people will disagree and thus we are divided. Obama is not doing the dividing, the issues are. And as I said, depending on which party holds the Executive branch, the other side will say the president is divisive because he subscribes to many of the opposite beliefs.
I didn't like Bush's policies for the most part and there are some dem presidents whose policies I didn't care for because I'm an independent. Although I support Obama over Romney, I don't agree with all the things Obama has done but I find myself agreeing with MUCH LESS of what Romney has done and says he will do. IMO, Romney would be a "divider" if we are going to blame the presidency itself.
