This article reads like it was written by an 11 year old with no knowledge of how our Government works. It's not the function of the President or the Department of Justice to determine which laws are Constitutional and which are not. That's the job of the SCOTUS.
It's the duty of the President and the DOJ to defend those laws whether they like them or not. Just wait until a Republican President decides he or she will no longer defend Roe v Wade.

PS, States are already putting a legal challenge to Obamacare legislation.
Are there any states that are seeking an end to the DOMA? Those states that wanted to force a change in marriage laws have done so. Whenever their citizens have put it to a vote, they've opposed same sex marriage.
