Yeah, I saw where Obama is drawing 90% of the black vote. I'm SURE it

doesn't have anything to do with them wanting a "brother" in the house. I

heard one guy, on a local call in show, say he wants Obama to rename the

White House - the Black House. Nope, no racism there. Idiots.

He noted that although both he and Mr. Obama are black, he would not

cast a vote for the Illinois senator on the basis of race. "I will

vote for the individual I think that brings the best set of tools to

the problems of 21st-century America and the 21st-century world

regardless of party, regardless of anything else other than the most

qualified candidate," Mr. Powell said at a news conference before

delivering a speech to about 800 people attending a leadership forum

at the Vancouver Convention Centre.

"Both of them certainly have the qualifications to be the president of

the United States, but both of them cannot be," he said.
