Everything you need to know about Colin Powell can be found in Norman Schwartzkopf's 1992 book It Doesn't Take a Hero. Stormin' Norman had no use for Powell.

Still, Powell is a true American success story and probably a decent man.

About the only thing to say about Powell now is not to trash him, but to point out that it appears that racial solidarity is more important to him than policy. Other than that, honor his service, however effective or ineffective it may have been.

This has been the most racially polarizing election in our lifetimes, and it's all because that's how the Democrats and Obambi want it.

Ever wonder why the MSM NEVER refers to Obama as half-white only African-American?

This election IS about race now. They have made it so. It's okay to be a black racist so it must now be okay to be a white racist. Good. Let's all vote for McCain because he's white.

Stormin Nomran should come out for McCain. He did a lot of campaigning for GW.

Overall, I think Americans are more fond of him and Tommy Franks.

“Still, Powell is a true American success story and probably a decent man.”

You need to qualify his success with affirmative action. To some that doesn’t make a difference.
