He's pandering, that was my point also.Changing your opinion has everything to do with intelligence.
Question is, did he really change his mind or is he only pandering to the base.
I don't think he changed his mind. I pointed out a youtube video earlier where he stated that he believed marriage was between a man and a woman but that he felt that a homosexual couple should be allowed marry.
He hasn't changed his mind at all. In fact, the quote that started this OP doesn't really state anything different than what he stated in the past. I'd say, he's pandering.

In doing so he just lost votes from one of his bigger base. The black vote.
