Guess I am behind the times. I had no idea that Eric Schmidt endorsed Obama. Guess some big companies along with a great military man like Colonel Powell doesn't think Obama is a socialist. Hmmm These are men who love their country and really know how to use their whole brain power. Perhaps we should pay attention.
