Old Project Avalon Forum (ARCHIVE) - View Single Post - Colin Powell endorses Obama on Meet the Press

Hi all,
Seems to me Powell had to make a decision, ie: be a Republican and announce support for McCain, or be truthful in announcing support for Obama.

It also seems to me Powell as USA Secretary of State got well-used by "W" to promote "W"'s successful effort in attacking Iran, through Powell's presentations at the UN. Powell was used and made the fool, unfortuanetly.

And so, not being so republican affiliated in his personal choice for this US Presidential election was not so hard to do, in crossing party lines.
