Ken Duberstein, Ronald Reagan’s former chief of staff, endorsed Sen. Barack Obama for president this week, according to CNN. The decision was largely based on former Sec. of State Colin Powell’s endorsement earlier last month.
“Well let’s put it this way – I think Colin Powell’s decision is in fact the good housekeeping seal of approval on Barack Obama,” Duberstein told CNN.
Let’s see here… Powell caught a whole lot of flak for backing Obama, including being compared to Benedict Arnold for going against the Republican Party and being accused of supporting Obama only because both men are black.
So will Duberstein receive the same sort of harsh criticism for his endorsement? Or do the Republicans only reserve such vitriol for when the black members of their party decide to break ranks?
