Historic DNC a continued call for full inclusion

This week's 2012 Democratic National Convention proved to be a monumentally historic event for the LGBT community and the Democratic Party itself. The party platform, approved Sept. 4, includes a marriage equality plank that reaffirms President Barack Obama's commitment to legalize same-sex marriage and combat employment discrimination against LGBT individuals. This comes almost a year after the repeal of "Don't Ask, Don't Tell," and several months after Obama became the first president to publicly state that he is in support of same-sex marriage.
