The fight is not done yet. Today was historical though and should be lauded. We are only as strong and as powerful as the sum total of all our LGBTers and our allies. We've picked up a powerful ally today in the president of the United States, and I am very excited to see how he will aid us in the fight in the future, to see how his power can help us achieve equality.
