Obama Endorsed By NARAL Pro-Choice America’s Political Action Committee

May 14th, 2008 by Ron Chusid

One of the many lies spread by Clinton supporters is that Obama has been weak on supporting choice. Hopefully this smear, along with the entire Clinton campaign, is coming to an end. Helping debunk this smear, NARAL Pro-Choice America’s political action committee endorsed Barack Obama:

Sen. Obama has been a strong advocate for a woman’s right to choose throughout his career in public service. Since joining the Senate in 2005, he has worked to unite Americans on both sides of this debate behind commonsense, common-ground ways to prevent unintended pregnancy. He supports legislation to provide our teens with comprehensive sex education, prevent pharmacies from denying women access to their legal birth-control prescriptions, and increase access for family-planning services.

Sen. Obama has said, “A woman’s ability to decide how many children to have and when, without interference from the government, is one of the most fundamental rights we possess. It is not just an issue of choice, but equality and opportunity for all women.”

Further, I believe Sen. Obama is going to be the Democratic nominee. He leads in pledged delegates, superdelegates, the popular vote, and cash-on-hand. As a former elected official, I know that having the three “m’s” of a campaign - money, message and manpower (or womanpower!) - are how we win elections. Sen. Obama will be our next president.
