Zachary Quinto, Wanda Sykes and Chaz Bono are just three of the many lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) celebrities to endorse President Obama in this new video for the re-election campaign.

Not only does the clip highlight Obama's backing of same-sex marriage, but also his other LGBT-relevant achievements, including the 2011 repeal of the military's "Don't Ask, Don't Tell" policy.

"It's amazing how each generation just keeps pushing the ball forward," notes tennis champ Billie Jean King. "President Obama has pushed it forward faster than any time in the history of our community."

Adds Quinto: "Having the president of the United States declare his belief that gay couples should be allowed to marry and to use the word marry...[it ]was incredibly inspiring to watch that all unfold."
