Colin Powell
I was very dissappointed in Colin Powell for endorsing Obama. I had so much respect for Colin Powell. I truly thought he would always do what was best for this country. When he said that the reason he was backing Obama was because he did not feel that Palin was qualified made me know that he was just using that as an excuse and that by using this as an excuse he could put doubt regarding Palin's qualifications when he knows that she is more qualified than Obama.
I believe very strongly that Obama has way to much negative in his past to be our president. I was very disappointed in his church and the churches views of the country and white Americans. If McCain would have attended a church that had the views Obama's Church has and it been against minorities would he have been allowed to run for president? I truly don't believe so.
Obama endorsement by Powell
This endorsement was long overdue. In practical effect I believe even Bush privately endorses Obama. There is no contest and apart for the most part from the race card all Americans in there tested wisdom know better that non but Barack must bear the torch that will once again light the way not only for America but for all mankind, for once; to be the American President meant to be "the president of the world".
American people must be responsible enough to put that man in the oval office. I have heard non accross the whole world speak of McCain but the enthusiasm about Obama in all continents is so much bigger than all of us combined.Obama will restore the leadership mankind has sought for centuries. Right now the world is leaderless!
GOODLUCK BARACK!
