I think he pandered too much to them. At least too early on in his Presidency. There was a right way to do it, and he didn't do it. I want to see "don't ask, don't care", and civil unions (where they really love each other and aren't doing it for tax purposes) being recognized by the government as equal. But, this is one of those things where the White House needed to send a bill to Congress, not the other way around.
I wish Obama would have done more environmental regulations, including trade restrictions with certain countries if they don't match our level of technology, or aren't willing to buy technology from Europe or the US/Canada. And, I'm not talking about CO2 emissions, although those would improve as well.
