Hillary Clinton might have picked off the support of The Obama Girl, but Barack Obama did get a significant endorsement of his own today. Zbigniew Brzezinski has endorsed Obama, saying he has a better global grasp.
Obama “recognizes that the challenge is a new face, a new sense of direction, a new definition of America’s role in the world,” Brzezinski said in an interview on Bloomberg Television’s “Political Capital with Al Hunt.”
“There is a need for a fundamental rethinking of how we conduct world affairs,” he added. “And Obama seems to me to have both the guts and the intelligence to address that issue and to change the nature of America’s relationship with the world.”
Brzezinski also sided with Obama, who was criticized by Clinton as being “irresponsible” and “naive” for saying he would meet in his first year as president with leaders of adversaries such as Iran and Syria. “What’s the hang-up about negotiating with the Syrians or with the Iranians?” Brzezinksi said. “What it in effect means” is “that you only talk to people who agree with you.”
Unlike Obama Girl Amber Lee Ettinger, who announced her decision to switch her support to Clinton, Brzezinski has not announced any plans to pose for Playboy.
