Colin Powell: “I’ll Be Voting For Barack Obama”

Posted by | October 19, 2008 10:09 | Filed under: Top Stories


On Sunday Morning’s “Meet the Press” former Secretary of State Colin Powell explains why he is supporting Barack Obama for president.  Among his reasons:


  • Concern about Sarah Palin
  • McCain not ready to deal with economic crisis
  • GOP moved too far to the right
  • Obama gives a broader, more inclusive view than Republicans do
  • Disappointment with focus on Bill Ayers, making the McCain campaign look narrow
  • Concern with likely conservative appointments to the Supreme Court
  • Muslim-bashing on the right, as members of the Islamic faith die for us in Iraq
  • Obama has style and substance and is a transformational figure
