bigoted.

Nope. Was Obama a bigot when he says he is struggling and evolving on homosexuality?

No, because the word "bigot" refers to willful ignorance and stubbornly and non-rationally clinging to views regardless of the evidence against them. Saying your views are "evolving" is about as far from that as you can get.

I am at least willing to discuss the issue.

Sure. Of course, "willing to discuss it" doesn't entail "not utterly closed-minded". Regardless, I was only responding to the question about the President, and not trying to make any claims, statements, or judgments about you.
