Signaling further evolution on the issue of marriage equality for gays and lesbians, President Barack Obama said he could not imagine a circumstance in which a state could legally justify banning same-sex marriage.
In an interview with ABC News’ George Stephanopoulos, scheduled to air Wednesday evening on “Nightline,” Obama waded into an issue he initially said should be left to the states.
“What I believe is that if the states don’t have a good justification for [banning same-sex marriage], then it probably doesn't stand up to constitutional muster,” he said.
