Ray Schoenke is President of the American Hunters and Shooters Association.

His message is that, if elected President, Barack Obama won't take away the firearms of outdoorsmen.

He says the group's support came when obama reacted to a U.S. Supreme Court decision striking down a gun ban in the nation's capital.

"His statement was, 'I'm glad it has been clarified, I support that ruling, I respect it, and I will follow up with it.'," Shoenke recalls. "To us, that was a huge statement."

Schoenke, who played for the Dallas Cowboys and Washington Redskins during his football career, says the National Rifle Association is trying to confuse voters, by saying efforts to reduce gun violence in urban areas will result in law-abiding citizens losing their right to have guns.
