Obama & Powell
June 11th, 2007
Colin Powell confirmed a story that has been going around for awhile now that he has given advice to Senator Barack Obama. Contrary to what some of the accounts have reported (or the impression they gave) Powell did not cite this as evidence he is endorsing the Obama campaign OR that it was advice exclusively given to him. Powell said the following yesterday on NBC’s Meet the Press:
Powell said he has met twice with Obama, the Illinois senator. “I’ve been around this town a long time and I know everybody who is running for office. And I make myself available to talk about foreign policy matters and military matters with whoever wishes to chat with me,” Powell said.
