Washington:

President Barack Obama said on Thursday that he will not campaign for Democrats who don't back gun reforms, part of his effort to make tougher gun laws a cause in the November 2016 presidential and congressional elections.

-"I will not campaign for, vote for or support any candidate, even in my own party, who does not support common-sense gun reform,-" Obama wrote in an op-ed column in the New York Times.

-"All of us need to demand leaders brave enough to stand up to the gun lobby's lies,-" Obama wrote. -"All of us need to demand that governors, mayors and our representatives in Congress do their part.-"
