African friends
General Colin Powel has on this day explained very candidly the failure of
Africa. He has decided to go out of his way to demonstrate why after so very
many years after independence we are still failing to build our continent. And
when you look at all facts given at a table Africa fails because we do not have
principles. Our failure to have principles has absolutely nothing to do with
race gender education or economical stand, we are simply a bunch of creatures
that do not know what to state today or tomorrow. Thus when you find a Mr.
Tsivangirai today in London singing all bad things against Robert mutable don't
join him for the day that very same Tsivangirai will be in pictures with Robert
Mugabe, as Raila Odinga is with Mwai Kibaki as Kiiza besigye will be with
Yoweri Museveni.
What Colin Powel has one today has only two options {a} It has clearly sent out
a very chilling message to every white voter in America that teh only weapon he
or she has in defence of this racism is a vote, for this campaign and election
has today been clearly defined by teh Obama campaign that it is a campaign
about race. But {b} it has shown how the Obama campaign is not a serious
campaign for if it was a serious campaign, Powell should hvae endorsed Obama
two to three weeks ago to create a time for the campaign to defend the
reactions of the population, today it si late they can not respond to those
critcisms. When you look closely at a Wellesley street
In the very many years I have followed the politics of North America, there is
no single very high member in an administration that has decided to endorse a
leader of an opposition party, until when it has reached point that the
candidate is black. Collin Powell is the first to do such. And let me be very
clear, Powell has a right to support any leader he wants, but if he decides to
support a Democrat, Powell should have taken a stand a week or two and
denounced being a Republican, then ad only then would have he decided to make
this stand. Let me add too that Powell made this decision way back, for the
Communication group knew about it 15 days ago but we refused to post it for we
did not take Powell to be this stupid. We refused to take the alert seriously.
And then you wonder. Why is Powell supporting Obama when shy have two different
policies? Obama voted against teh Iraqi war yt Powell sold it to teh UN, is
Powell going to stand to shake the hands of a campaigning candidate when he
will not support the war? And what will happen to the families of the deceased
soldiers in all the wars Powell supported and commanded? These are people that
went to the war for they trusted him as a good commander and with principles.
How will they feel that their leader is resigning?
Last night I watched a program on Cisco Channel where we group of British were
working in the wildlife of Kenya. And it was so interesting that all Africans
had to do in that picture is to dance, those that were hired to go and help to
arrest a Giraffe would do it but as soon as they had wrestled her down the
camera went on and they saw us a British Doctor working with them and talking
Luanda. Why can't we run the wild game but run the entire game? It is because
we are not trusted. May God help us that Obama gets elected, which I do not
belive, for if he fails to be elected, you will not want being an American in a
blue van.

Colin Powell endorses Barack Obama for president
By STEPHEN OHLEMACHER, Associated Press Writer Stephen
Ohlemacher, Associated Press Writer – 15 mins ago
AP – Former Secretary of State Colin Powell leaves federal
court in Washington, Friday, Oct. 10, 2008,
WASHINGTON – Former Secretary of State Colin Powell has
endorsed Democrat Barack Obama for president, describing the Illinois senator
as a "transformational figure."
Powell says both Obama and Republican John McCain are qualified
to be commander in chief. But, in an interview Sunday on NBC's "Meet the
Press," he said Obama is better suited to handle the nation's economic problems
as well as help improve it's standing in the world.
Powell expressed disappointment in the negative tone of
McCain's campaign, as well as in his choice of Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin as the
Republican vice presidential nominee. Powell says he does not believe Palin is
ready to take over as president, if necessary.
