What’s wrong with being Muslim anyway?
October 19, 2008
Colin Powell was interviewed on Meet The Press this morning. He spoke to Tom Brokaw about the damages of the negative messages coming from the McCain campaign. He posed the right question at one point: ‘Why shouldn’t a 7 year old Muslim child be able to think about being president someday?’
Considering the way the McCain campaign has been carrying on its negative attacks, Powell said he will be voting for Barack Obama. As voters we can send a strong message to politicians of both parties – vote against negative election tactics this year. The passion of an election is no reason to tear down our principles.
