Your analysis is sound; yet perhaps not conclusive. There is another possible explanation, and that is that Powell's nose is out of joint over something that none of us is aware of.

This does not imply that there would be anything necessarily wrong in Powell making a racial decision, if he feels somehow related to Obama. Actually, acting out of possible pique would be less worthy than out of a sense of kinship.

Just my opinion, perhaps.

Lawrence B. Wilkerson’s campaign contribution records were/are recorded by the FEC, and are openly available at www.opensecrets.org.
The FEC only records contributions to federal candidates, not state, so there might be further contributions of Wilkerson recorded at the VA campaign contribution websites. The FEC records any contributions over $250. For the 2008-2012 election cycles, Wilkerson shows for about a dozen such contributions, starting in 2007-08. Including 2 for Obama.
