Man there is some cognitive dissonance there. I'm wondering if this guy spent his whole life not understanding wtf he believes and why he is doing what he does.

If only your political views had seen the miles that your car has. You lack the perspective of age.

As a registered republican, I voted McCain in 2008. But Powell's endorsement of Obama over McCain is very much in-line with his philosophy (the Powell Doctrine) concerning long protracted wars which McCain was always supporting.

I think Powell was a foreign policy voter. In 2012, there was no reason for adults who form their opinions outside of the tv news cycle and talk radio to vote Romney over Obama in that context. Meaning there was no "sure thing" upside to Romney on the foreign policy front.

In 16, no one with a brain would have voted for Trump over Hillary. Powell was not a fan of Hillary. He spoke very publicly about her "hubris" costing her the election.
