《Out》杂志主编亚伦·希克林（Aaron Hicklin）为这位在《Out》杂志百大名人榜上拔得头筹的总统写道：
"A president who came to office on a wave of euphoria, appeared to lose momentum halfway through... has since rallied, helping us secure marriage equality, among other landmark initiatives that are transforming our place in America."
“一位在狂热支持下入主白宫的总统，似乎在中途势头减弱……稍事休整后，他帮助我们实现了婚姻平等，并推出了其他改变我们在美国社会地位的里程碑式提案。”
In the accompanying interview Obama said that the first openly gay person he remembered meeting was a college professor who was an inspirational figure on campus for gay and lesbian students.
在一同刊发的采访中，奥巴马表示，在记忆中，自己碰到的第一个公开同性恋者身份的人是一位大学教授。在男女同性恋学生心中，他在校园里是一个励志人物。
