In a sense, this manufactured divide between the African-American community and the LGBT community is the last relic of the 'divided left' era, when the American political left was a bunch of single-issue voting blocs who couldn't see past the end of their own noses to get their acts together.
Of course, Obama's apparent recalcitrance/apathy/ambivalence (pick your favourite!) on DADT, DOMA, etc etc don't help the process of clearing that relic away.
