[Vision2020] Powell endorses Obama

[No Weatherman]

Ummmmm . . . let me make sure I understand you.

Colin Powel's endorsement of Barack Obama translates into defense
experience for Barack Obama.

If you insist.

But only if you insist.

Then Louis Farrakhan's endorsement of Barack Obama translates into a
racist, anti-Semitic paradigm for Barack Obama.

As I said, only if you insist.
