Gen. Colin Powell told CNN’s Wolf Blitzer Wednesday that, like President Barack Obama, he supports the right of same-sex couples to get married.
“I have no problem with it,” Powell said. “In terms of the legal matter of creating a contract between two people that’s called marriage, and allowing them to live together with the protection of law, it seems to me is the way we should be moving in this country. And so I support the president’s decision.”
