Former Secretary of State Colin Powell on Thursday endorsed President Barack Obama for reelection.
“I voted for him in 2008, and I plan to stick with him in 2012,” Powell said on CBS’s “This Morning.” “I’ll be voting for he and for Vice President Joe Biden next month.”
One of the most coveted endorsements remaining in the 2012 presidential race, Powell, a Republican, said Obama inherited a horrendous economy and has begun to turn it around.
“I think, generally, we’ve come out of the dive and we’re starting to gain altitude,” said Powell, who served as George W. Bush’s secretary of state. “It doesn’t mean all our problems are solved.”
Powell also took issue with some of GOP nominee Mitt Romney’s foreign policy positions, calling Romney’s stances a “moving target.”

This is interesting considering Condi Rice is voting for Romney. Condi friends were BLOWN up in the Birmingham Church that during Martin Luther King Days and if it was today, Mitt would be silent like he is about Voter Suppression.
With 17 of 24 of Bush men on his team how can you DARE consider Romney? With Romney wanting to take away your Birth Control Pill control you women health issues How can you! Yes my next move is to change Political Parties. No not a Black Panther LOL. I think I will be Independent if possible. I will always vote against the person who vote against the people!
