Obama's hero
for renaming is the Harvey Milk Elementary. Yes, there is an elementary school in San Francisco named after the member of San Francisco Board of Supervisors who was romantically involved with a
string of
 troubled teens. One of Milk’s young lovers, Jack Lira, committed suicide while living with the aspiring First Gay MayorMilk was nonplussedIn Cult CityDaniel J. Flynn notes that in a few short weeks after the death, Milk moved a new lover into the apartment where Lira took his life.

Peter Sprigg of the Family Research Council wrote, “Milk is famous only for winning one election, being murdered — and having sex with men.” Nevertheless, Milk has been celebrated with an opera, a 2014 postage stamp, a state holiday, a children’s picture book, and was played by Sean Penn in a movie of his life in 2008. He posthumously received the Presidential Medal of Freedom for some reason from Barack Obama in 2009.
