A brief cut and past from the below site:

http://sun.menloschool.org/~sportman/et ... index.html

Powell spent the majority of his life in New York. Born in New York City in 1937 and raised in the South Bronx, his upbringing was amid a very diverse society. His parents were Jamaican immigrants, and they worked so as to give Powell the opportunity for an education. Powell attended Morris High School and then graduated from City College of New York. College is where he first encountered his desire to be involved in the military. He was a member of the ROTC, and even became a second lieutenant in 1958. Then, Powell attended George Washington University and earned an M.B.A.

Sold his soul and integrity to the bushistas. The speech to the security council was his ethical pit and he will never emerge.

Yeah, I kinda lost respect for him after that. I do think that he's an interesting man, though. Very accomplished.

Seriously where do you get these views. He is a good man and I wish he would run. Who do you think is the best candidate Hillary?

Yep-- but GW has ruined many a good man in the last 7 years...I have to give Colin credit- he has come out since and admitted his mistake and pretty much apologized to the world for being a Bushie...

AND, he had the honesty and integrity to stand up and say I MESSED UP!

I'd vote for him in a heartbeat if he'd run!

He impressed me when he put his wife's health above political office.... and not just for some votes later.

Funny how the good ones are too smart to run......
