Really, no surprise there. He has said in the past that he believes in the Second Amendment. But, then, he's said a lot of things, before he "evolved" to believe otherwise.

This whole gun panic is emotional, not reason based. Let him issue his Executive order, and let it be for Chicago first, so we can see how well it works.
He's a smart man. He can make "procedural changes" to the constitution via EO.

Highly regulate and limit/ban the bullets and you've effectively got your gun control.
"My understanding is the vice president's going to provide a range of steps that we can take to reduce gun violence," said Obama. "Some of them will require legislation, some of them I can accomplish through executive action.

We can hear what he says, but have no real idea what he's planning.
The dictator in 0bama is coming out, he wants to use the power of the executive branch to bypass the Congress on both the debt ceiling and gun control.
Which means in four years the GOP candidate who promises to undo his EO will win easily ...
