Bristol Palin (seen above-r), daughter of former Alaska Governor Sarah Palin, responded to President Obama's affirmation of gay marriage by saying this,
"While it’s great to listen to your kids’ ideas, there’s also a time when dads simply need to be dads," she voiced in a blog post for a religious website. "In this case, it would’ve been helpful for him to explain to Malia and Sasha that while her friends parents are no doubt lovely people, that’s not a reason to change thousands of years of thinking about marriage. Or that – as great as her friends may be – we know that in general kids do better growing up in a mother/father home. Ideally, fathers help shape their kids’ worldview."

"Sometimes dads should lead their family in the right ways of thinking, in this case, it would’ve been nice if the President would’ve been an actual leader and helped shape their thoughts instead of merely reflecting what many teenagers think after one too many episodes of Glee."
And sadly this is exactly why prejudice exists in America, due to people like Bristol Palin whose uneducated rhetoric misinforms instead of correctly informing those that listen to her. It would seem that Bristol refuses to think with her own brain, as she thinks it's better to let her parents shape her views for her.
If it were meant for everyone to think the same way, then we wouldn't have our own individual minds, right? God should have just created one person and one person only, if we were all supposed to be narrow-minded. With everything the same nothing would ever change.
What is it with republicans and their "one way" thinking? Are they trying to say that our powerful and almighty creator only had a one track mind? And how dare they think God to be so lame, as if God couldn't or wouldn't do more than one thing multiple ways?
What if God created us all different as a test to see if his love that's supposed to reside within us, is stronger than our hatred and bigotry for one another?
Native Americans are murdered for being different, Black people are murdered for being different, Jewish people were murdered for being different, LGBT people are murdered for being different, and presidents were assassinated for thinking different. So I'd like to know, when does the bullying of people who are different end?
In regards to Bristol saying, "Or that – as great as
her friends may be – we know that in general kids do better growing up
in a mother/father home."
Statistics seem to suggest otherwise and due to the overwhelming divorce rates of heterosexual couples, it is a proven fact that divorce has the worse impact on children not the sexual orientation of their parents.
Moreover, it is also a statistical fact that children fare better in gay households, because in heterosexual households the parents tend to force feed children what they're expected to be like (hint Bristol Palin), verses a gay household that doesn't place restrictions on a child's self-expression.

Bristol if your parents taught you about marriage and a two parent household being very important, then why did you have a baby out of wedlock? Better yet, why did you not marry the father of your child?
Are you suggesting that Americans should condemn you for going against the Bible, and not being married before you had kids? Are you suggesting we send child protective services to your home to retrieve your son, since you live in a one parent household?
What are you going to teach your son when he asks you why you're a single mother? Are you going to lie and say his father is dead, or will you explain to him that ALL families are "different"?

President Obama said it best when he said,
"You know, Malia and Sasha, they have friends whose parents are same-sex couples," he told ABC's Robin Roberts.
"There have been times where Michelle and I have been sitting around the dinner table and we’re talking about their friends and their parents and Malia and Sasha, it wouldn’t dawn on them that somehow their friends’ parents would be treated differently. It doesn’t make sense to them and, frankly, that’s the kind of thing that prompts a change in perspective."
