Former Republican Secretary of State Colin Powell shook the conservative landscape when he supported President Obama in 2008, and now he’s doing it
again by supporting Obama’s 2012 bid for reelection.
On Thursday, Powell endorsed Obama, telling CBS This Morning, “I think we ought to keep on the track that we are on,” adding, “I voted for him in 2008 and I plan to stick with him in 2012.”
Powell’s endorsement comes as polls are showing a dead heat between President Obama and his Republican challenger Mitt Romney. The most recent Real Clear Politics poll shows Mitt Romney leading President Obama in a national average of polls by 47.7 percent to 47.1 percent.
Powell questioned Romney’s many inconsistencies on foreign policy, and questioned whether Romney would tackle the deficit.

Much respect to General Powell for supporting President Obama and the black people who are voting to keep the Teabaggers from selecting the next two Supreme Court judges.
Powell crossing party lines and supporting President Obama makes you wonder about Condeleza Rice!

“A ballot is like a bullet. You don’t throw your ballots until you see a target, and if that target is not in reach, keep your ballot in your pocket.”
-Malcolm X
O’Drama does not TARGET Black people when it comes to OUR needs! He dodges the BULLET, but he wants us to vote for him at the BALLOT box!!!
Colin Powell, remember when bushboy made you throw BULLETS at people, who DID NOT HAVE WEAPONS OF MASS DESTRUCTION?
I’M KEEPING MY BALLOT IN MY POCKET!!!
