Former US Secretary of State Colin Powell, a life-long Republican who served George W. Bush in his first term and argued for Iraq war at the UN, endorsed Senator Barack Obama to be the next president of the United States on NBC's "Meet the Press".

By asking "So what if he is Muslim?", General Powell has gone where no US politician , including Obama, has ever dared to go before him.
