The NRA's fact sheet on Obama here:
http://nraila.org/obama/
Says this:
"FACT: Barack Obama voted against the confirmation of 2 of the 5 Justices that affirmed an individual right to keep and bear arms."
This is poorly written as it makes it seem he supported three of the 5 justices. The fact is that he voted against EVERY pro-2A justice he could (Roberts & Alito), ridiculed almost every pro-2A justices judgement (at planned parenthood & saddleback church) and named most of anti-2A justices as "sensible" (Breyer, Ginsburg and David Souter).
The NRA's sentence could be vastly improved but I'm not sure what is the best way. My best attempt:
Fact: Obama voted against every justice he could that said the 2nd amendment supported individual rights and ridiculed the judgement of almost all of the pro-2A justices. He also claims that 3 of the 4 justices that ruled the second amendment is collective or state government right are the "sensible" ones.
If you feel like any of the other points on the NRA sheet need to be reworded feel free to help the NRA out on those as well.
Moderator note: - Despite the fact that we are actively helping out the NRA this was deleted from the activism forum. If this doesn't belong in general please move it to where it belongs or notify me of a better local. Given the importance of this election, the Supreme Court and the looming gun cases, I hope there is a place on this forum for its members to help out the NRA.
