Conservative Republicans found his endorsement (both in 2008 and in 2012) very problematic. Some criticized him for trying to score political points (he had a falling out with the Bush administration), or perhaps he was trying to get a job with the Obama administration. Others accused him of being a RINO (Republican in name only) or supporting Mr. Obama as one black man supporting another. But moderate Republicans and most Democrats believed the Powell gesture was sincere, and that he genuinely believed that Mr. Obama was the best candidate for the presidency. But in a time of great political polarization, such a bipartisan gesture was the subject of much controversy.

And he has a 7 on jersey and 7 reflected on itself is a triangle and triangles have three corners, corners... corn. Corn has three consonants, you know what else has three consonants? Colin. As in Colin Kaepernick. Do you know the date of when Colin Kaepernick was born? The third of November. Not only was he born on a 3 (which as we know leads to corners, corn, Colin, Kaepernick.)
