Week #4 Item #1: Colin Powell endorese Obama not McCain

Colin Powell, who was the Secretary of State under President Bush first term, says in one of his interviews with “Meet the Press” that his thoughts are leaning more to Obama. Now Colin Powell is a republican you would think he would have sided with Senator McCain. The reason why for this is because, he sees the republican’s become narrower, especially dealing with the Iraq War. Colin Powell sees that Senator Obama would do a good job at fixing what was already done to the rest of the world, ‘hint, hint’ Iraq War.

I see that, it’s the opinion of Colin Powell on what he see is getting narrower, but by Senator Obama’s thoughts it seems that Colin Powell is against the war as well that was started when he was in office. Funny, how you can be involved in the start of the war and know looking at a perspective that is not for war.

The years of war must of change his views on war, which could change of course. What I got is that Colin Powell is probably tired of war for it’s already been almost 5 years and probably a good stop point for the Iraq War.
