On the Second Amendment, Don’t Believe Obama! Senator Obama says “words matter.” But when it comes to your Second Amendment rights, he refuses to speak honestly about where he stands. In fact, Obama hides behind carefully chosen words and vague statements of support for sportsmen and gun rights to sidestep and camouflage the truth. But even he can’t hide from the truth forever…his voting record, political associations, and long standing positions make it clear that... Barack Obama would be the most anti-gun president in American history!
