Top Ten Reasons to Support Herman Cain for President By C. Edmund Wright Even those conservatives who will not vote for Herman Cain to win the Republican nomination should hope that he does run -- and that his candidacy lasts a long time during the nomination process, perhaps even succeeding. Not the least of reasons is that a Cain candidacy would be a hoot. And I do not mean that in a derisive or condescending way at all. I mean that it would be the kind of doggone honest and refreshing campaign the country needs. It would be the opposite of the stale McCain run. Cain does not speak Washington drivel, and he's not afraid to take a strong position. Dare I say it? He'll call a spade a spade, and he'll reach across the aisle only to smack someone down. He will admit what McCain would not: that we do have a lot to fear from an Obama presidency. Herman Cain is peerless among the long list of potential candidates -- and his impact on the field and the direction of the party will be in the direction of free enterprise, less government, and speaking with boldness -- you know, pretty much the opposite of what the GOP has done since Newt's Congress lost steam in the mid- to late '90s. To codify, here are the top reasons to support Cain based on my observation of the man over a period of years: 10. The "race card": A Cain candidacy not only takes the race card off the table -- it might in fact put it in the Republicans' camp. Frankly, Cain is "blacker" than Obama in every way imaginable. He does not have a white parent. He has a slight black dialect and does not "turn it off" to impress Harry Reid or Joe Biden, nor does he "amp it up" to impress Jeremiah Wright. As Obama's presidency has shown, America did not need a black president. What America needs is to just get over the race thing, period. Cain is over it, and I bet he would flat-out tell Obama to get over it, too. 9. Been there, done that: Cain brings a lot of "been there, done that" to the office, and that is in stark contrast not only to Obama, but to almost anyone else running. Cain is not shy about making fun of politicians' lack of understanding of the reality of the free-enterprise system, and certainly no group embodies that ignorance more than Obama and his administration. Making a payroll; dealing with employees, the IRS, the INS, insurance companies; dealing with rents, lawsuits, unemployment commissions, etc. -- Cain has been there, done that. Obama has not. 8. Not forgettable: One Herman Cain soundbite is worth ten from Tim...um, what's his name? Oh, yeah, Pawlenty. Cain's boldness and confidence and accent and voice will cut through the noise out there, and this makes his candidacy dangerous even if he faces some financial handicaps versus other folks running. He is a talk radio host now by trade and knows how to hold folks' attention. 7. Will break every rule set for him by "strategists": This one might be my favorite. Cain has never counted on political strategists to get him where he is now, and this alone separates him from all other candidates. Lord help the first "strategist" from the RNC who advises Cain to "tone it down" or "soften his position." 6. Will really get under the skin of the Washingtonian class: A Cain candidacy would drive David Brooks to apoplexy. Charles Krauthammer -- doing his best to run off legions of his longtime fans -- would no doubt find some Palinesque reasons to object to Cain. And those are the conservative ruling-class folks. Imagine what the liberals will say about this non-Ivy league, non-elected Southern black guy running for president. I can't wait to hear it. 5. Will not get in way of the 2010 Congress' momentum: This might be the most important reason to support a Cain candidacy. He has gained momentum as part of the Tea Party movement that was the defining factor in the 2010 congressional elections. A Cain candidacy would be in lockstep with what the country told Congress it wanted in November 2010. It will be an extension of the 2010 campaign, and that's preferable to a presidential election that will distract from the 2010 results. 4. Never held office before: While Cain's opponents -- on both sides of the aisle -- are licking their chops over this one, they should rethink this. Mr. Cain already has a lethal (can we still say that?) response to this one: "Everyone in Washington has held public office before. How's that working out for you?" Case closed. 3. Ann Coulter's second-favorite pick: So Ann's first choice is Chris Christie, and Cain comes in second. With some 25 names floating around out there, being number 2 on anyone's list is pretty good at this point in the game. Besides, I predict that Cain will overtake Christie on Ann's list. Cain is more conservative and even less afraid to speak his mind. While I love Christie's boldness on the issues where he is conservative, he will wobble off to the Jersey left a bit on some issues. Cain will not. 2. Will not be cowed by the new speech police: The attempt by the left to silence conservatives in light of the Tucson shootings will not be the last. And you can bet that when they do, some on the right will recoil and fall prey, regardless of how mindless the attempts are. If you have followed Herman Cain, you know that this will not be an issue for him. And the number one reason to support a Cain candidacy? It opens the door to a ticket of Cain and Haley Barbour in some order. OK, maybe this is not earthshaking, but imagine the "racist Republican Party" putting forth a national ticket including a drawlin' Mississippi good ol' boy and a black businessman who still speaks a smidgen of Ebonics. This would be the hope and change America thought they were getting in 2008. This would be ticket not so much of "racial healing" as it would be the ticket of "just get over the race thing." Because liberalism is joined at the hip with the race pimp industry, a liberal African-American cannot by definition do for the country what a black conservative can. A black liberal winning reinforces counterproductive stereotypes. A conservative black winning crushes them. Period. Yes, I know that reasons number one and ten seem a lot alike. They are. We have just about destroyed our country trying to put this issue to bed, and the result is that tensions are higher than they were before Obama was elected. Which we predicted. A Cain presidency would actually go a long way towards solving this. And besides, Mr. Cain has some great ideas for getting government out of our way and letting America be America again. And we all need that.

Maybe that will finally kill the GOP. Just like Obozo is killing the Dumbassocrats......

1964, 1972, 1976, 1984, 1992 What do all of those have in common? In each instance, what was rightly or wrongly perceived as extremism in either candidacy or at convention cost the party a victory.
America...My Kind Of Place... "I truly am not that concerned about [bin Laden]..." Just like blah blah blah... You're out of your mind if you believe that. And it's hilarious to watch all of you take the wrong lessons from 2010. People want MORE government even though some lie when asked if they do... Everyone wants medical care...everyone wants the government to manage the economy...everyone wants the wealthy taxed more... Read the polls...not the election.

And you think polls are relative at this time, 1-1/2 years out from Nov 2012???? LOL..... I can't wait till Nov 2012.....

Everyone wants medical care...everyone wants the government to manage the economy...everyone wants the wealthy taxed more You forgot a few words when you posted that, add in Welfare Babies and low IQ Libtards and you would be 100% correct.....

Did you read what I wrote? STOP reading the election...read what people WANT. Why would "we" elect Obama in 2008 and then the Tea Party in 2010?
America...My Kind Of Place... "I truly am not that concerned about [bin Laden]..." Huh? You're starting to sound like a Reader's Digest condensed version of Capitaine Erica.
America...My Kind Of Place... "I truly am not that concerned about [bin Laden]..." People want MORE government even though some lie when asked if they do... I'm not so sure people actually want more government I think it's that they want certain services that the private sector has proven they are unable to provide.
Yeah, the 2010 elections really showed the GOP is dead and the people all want more Democratic Party style big government.
Now, I know Iām not going to change the minds of any of the True Believersā¦those who read all of Reverend Alās sermons, and say things like, āYou know, global warming can mean warmer OR colder, wetter OR drier, cloudier OR sunnier, windier OR calmer, ā¦ā. Can I get an āamenā??
What did 2008 show, Paddy? 2006?
America...My Kind Of Place... "I truly am not that concerned about [bin Laden]..." We'll see Tuesday in NY-26 where the Democrat currently holds a 6 point lead in a district that has been held by Republicans for all but 2 years since 1953. And we'll see when 3 GOP state senators in Wisconsin face recalls.
"Thats because your basically and idiot." You may want to re-read the history of the 2008 campaign, at this point in 2007 Hillary Clinton had all the momentum.
"Thats because your basically and idiot." Doubt he was talking about John F'n Kerry, Joe Lieberman, Henry Kissinger, or Robert Reich. I like Herman Cain, he'd make a strong third party candidate. His financial ideas are excellent, and he's got the critical pizza demographic sewn up! Return to the gold standard, kill the IRS. He has zero chance of getting the GOP nomination. Ron Paul/Herman Cain 2012! A black guy who makes good pizza, scares the hObamabots.
I recall a re-run of MASH I saw where this uber right winger named Colonel Flagg... What must really scare you is that people are now discussing him.
Misleading. A large portion of the GOP vote is being syphoned away by the Tea Party Candidate. The Democrat's portion of the vote is at about historical levels.
Now, I know Iām not going to change the minds of any of the True Believersā¦those who read all of Reverend Alās sermons, and say things like, āYou know, global warming can mean warmer OR colder, wetter OR drier, cloudier OR sunnier, windier OR calmer, ā¦ā. Can I get an āamenā??
What about it. Completely reversed in 2010.

And so why wasn't she nominated then?????? Because everybody knew Shrillarys background (HillaryCare) and Obozo was a blank slate, nothing bad to tie him to except his friends and big mouth..... and then there is of course they knew he would get 95% of the black vote!!!!! That was the clincher, race card time.... shame people into voting for him..... even though he wasn't qualified.... but then again she isn't qualified either....

I bet he would scare them even more if he made "killer chicken"......

The stim didn't happen? HCR has been undone? His other legislation repealed? I thank you for proving my point. But I mostly thank you for, again, being too stupid to realize it.
America...My Kind Of Place... "I truly am not that concerned about [bin Laden]..." Just as Palin did? And Newt was supposed to? And Mitch Daniels - if he weren't a pussy? I've been reading your posts a lot lately. You're a DOB page out of the GOP handbook. Cain didn't make pizza, btw, Pillsbury did. And anyone who believes that "chain" pizza is "good" pizza needs to get out more.
America...My Kind Of Place... "I truly am not that concerned about [bin Laden]..." You forgot the waffles. You military wannabes seem to scare easily don't you. A little conversation has you quivering in your combat boots.
Let's see ... This is how it WILL work. Isn't that kind of talk RACIST you simpering libTURD whore? What's the matter you libTURD whore? Are you a RACIST because Mr. Cain is REALLY a "black" American man? YOU sound like a RACIST. You attack this innocent hard working AMERICAN BLACK man? Sounds like RACISM to me whore. You libTURDS are RACISTS aren't you? YOU libTURD filth taught America this drill, and now we will use it on YOU. Enjoy. Spit ...
Living in mouth breather's empty noggins 24/7/365 totally rent free!
Rejected as unproductive. HCR has been undone? as much as possible, yes. His other legislation repealed? what other legislation?
Now, I know Iām not going to change the minds of any of the True Believersā¦those who read all of Reverend Alās sermons, and say things like, āYou know, global warming can mean warmer OR colder, wetter OR drier, cloudier OR sunnier, windier OR calmer, ā¦ā. Can I get an āamenā??
Cain is not a nigger. You love black guys who are niggers, and have made that position obvious for some time.

CZ: You mean like you guys did with Obozo?????? Ouch! THAT'S gonna' leave a mark! LMAO!!!
List of those unable to think: Bumper sticker on DwarF's car: Proof positive that the Socialist (democrats) are out of their fucking MINDS. Quotes like the above show why CWII is inevitable.
List of those unable to think: Bumper sticker on DwarF's car: The stim passed, Paddy, and expired. Much to the peril of what is now a fragile expansion. as much as possible, yes. Date the bill was signed. Thanks. what other legislation? I already know that you're stupid.
America...My Kind Of Place... "I truly am not that concerned about [bin Laden]..." He'll be glad to know that, Paddy.
America...My Kind Of Place... "I truly am not that concerned about [bin Laden]..." You, sir, have NAILED it. Libs/socialists are closet-racists, and try to ease that racist streak (which makes them feel oh-so-guilty) with "affirmative action" and other equally dsgusting racist policies... When a successful man comes along who demonstrates the hypocrisy of their actions, they get apoplectic, because they have no defense... And their reactions demonstrate their OVERT racism... Which pisses them off even more. And the cycle will feed on itself. This is gonna' be FUN to watch!

And their reactions demonstrate their OVERT racism... Which pisses them off even more. It is a proven HISTORICAL FACT that the demonRAT partee AND the so called "left" are both RACIST in extreme to their cores. I agree that turning their own play book around and using it against them is going to be fun. I also hope that we as a nation will be able to move past this absurd "race" kabuki. But at any rate, we as AMERICANS will have the coming opportunity to rub these libTURD'S foul arrogant noses in their own shit for the foreseeable future of this election cycle. With ANY "luck" at all this will become a real cultural trend. Building rational doubts and contempt in the people for those TOOLS who knee jerk immediately to "race" pimping. But no matter what, WE the PEOPLE of THESE UNITED STATES of AMERICA get a chance to go Pavlovian on these disgusting libTURD fuckwads on this, ("race" pimping), matter. They are going to sob and cry like the little bitches they really are. This will be GOOD!
Spoiled, stupid and ignorant, brain dead fuckwads, and libTURD fools and idiots are the real sickness; the messiah "king" obammy and his regime are only the symptoms.
and has been unproductive The GOP does not have veto proof numbers to overturn HCR. But that shit has never been popular, and if is so great, why are all of the Friends of the Kenyan being given exemptions? what other legislation? I already know that you're stupid. Typical wally. When out of facts, resort to trite and boring insults.

That's like a drunk that sleeps in the alley screaming at someone they ruin property values by being there as he pisses on their door. You can't even post a thread property. Stick it, shit bird.
The stim worked, Paddy. When out of facts, resort to trite and boring insults. And here I believed that you'd be proud, Earache...
America...My Kind Of Place... "I truly am not that concerned about [bin Laden]..." over 2 years since it passed and we are still at 9% unemployment? Go ahead, blame it on Hoover/Reagan/Bush/etc.

Employment is a lagging indicator.
America...My Kind Of Place... "I truly am not that concerned about [bin Laden]..." That crap might fly for 6 months, but for 2 1/2 years? If nothing whatsoever was done, the economy should have recovered a lot faster than what it has done so far.

Chimp in charge was 2001-2009 and how we ended up in the mess...
America...My Kind Of Place... "I truly am not that concerned about [bin Laden]..." Obama built a better organization and was more charismatic. Cain's problem is that he has publicly stated that he thinks every Muslim is out to kill or convert infidels. How is he supposed to deal with Saudi Arabia or any other Muslim country?
"Thats because your basically and idiot."I hope that he is nominated.
