@BarackObama, @Frank_Ocean & More ‘LGBT Heroes Of 2012’
From the Examiner:
Today, CNN called Barack Obama and Frank Ocean the LGBT heroes of 2012. We would also add Madonna to the list for standing up for the gay community in Russia, even though she was threatened with physical and even financial damage.

Let’s take a look at the three most important figures in LGBT rights this year.
