This has been answered already. You only have to look at his voting record in Illinois (when he was an Illinois Senator before becoming a US Senator).
For example, check out how he voted for the "Born Alive Infant Protection Act" - we are talking about "late-term" abortions that actually survive the abortion (otherwise known as Live-Birth Abortions). He voted 3 times! So what do you think - Check out SB 1661, 1662 and 1663.
Also check out how he voted for "partial-birth abortion". (this is a 3rd tri-semester abortion where a child is 1/2 delivered before being killed. HB382
Also check to see how Obama voted in Illinois for "tax-payer" funded abortions. HB709, 383.
After you research these votes, I ask you this:
Do you think that he will do anything different in Washington than he has done in Springfield, Illinois?
He has a record - check out his votes.

[An abortion protester at a campaign event] handed me a pamphlet. "Mr. Obama, I know you're a Christian, with a family of your own. So how can you support murdering babies?"
I told him I understood his position but had to disagree with it. I explained my belief that few women made the decision to terminate a pregnancy casually; that any pregnant woman felt the full force of the moral issues involved when making that decision; that I feared a ban on abortion would force women to seek unsafe abortions, as they had once done in this country. I suggested that perhaps we could agree on ways to reduce the number of women who felt the need to have abortions in the first place.
"I will pray for you," the protester said. "I pray that you have a change of heart." Neither my mind nor my heart changed that day, nor did they in the days to come. But that night, before I went to bed, I said a prayer of my own-that I might extend the same presumption of good faith to others that had been extended to me.

He's pro-choice, like a majority of Americans. We as Americans like choices and hate mandates. Being in also llinois also, I know Obama treasures his family as do I. I'm pro-choice, but that doesn't mean my first choice is abortion.

I would better seek a woman's view on abortion.
