Herman Cain: Blacks Brainwashed

One thing that bothers me about Cain is that he was on the Board of Directors on the Federal reserve and has made a statement saying the Fed does not need to be audited.

Another would be when he sat on the Board as Director at Aquila, a mid-west energy corporation. It has the same flavor as Enron.

In a nutshell, the Board steered the employees into heavily investing their retirement savings to company stock.

Here is the lawsuit:

I was in Mr Cains corner from the beginning and one of the first 200 to "like" him on Facebook (he now has a couple of hundred thousand likes). I didn't think his campaign would actually go anywhere, and it still might not, but he is showing far more resilience then anyone thought he would and making a very strong showing.

Dumb thing for Cain to say that he wouldn't support Rick Perry if he got the nomination. So, he would vote for Obama? Dumb remark. I would vote for Cain if he got the nomination. I wouldn't vote for Obama. His remark was dumb.

Did I say dumb?

Having virtually no experience running for public office (other than what he has picked up the past few months running for prez) he is gaff prone. Most seasoned Republicans would not say something like that and most democrats wouldn't worry about saying it because they know the media won't run with it.

Yea, really dumb gaff. I don't like him today or tomorrow.

I should come back and explain why Cain irritated me so. It was his remarks on Perry being soft of immigration. All that showed is that he doesn't know the real issue and the policies that Gov. Perry has put in place.

There is no point in punishing people who are trying to play by the rules. And the in-state tuition is not free.

Jeb Bush and Marco Rubio happen to agree with Gov. Perry.

I like Herman Cain. And I like Godfather's Pizza. Two reasons to vote for him.

Obama is half black. That is like a god fathers Pizza half cheese and half supreme.

Being that Cain is black himself, he carries himself very well IMHO. He doesn't strike me as arrogant or better than anyone else, let alone out to get anyone.

Honestly, for Cain to run on the Republican ticket is a blow to the black community. Whether or not he can persuade those among him to see his perspective and vote for him is another story. After all, most black folks I know are very vocal on their support for democrats. There are a few who don't support them.

I could care less about skin color, unlike some of my democrat brethren . For the sole purpose of making a statistical statement by voting for someone because they think they'll get more representation, or because of skin color, is absurd and throws up red flags immediately. They're in it for the wrong reasons. I'm not alone on that one, even with some of my non-white friends...

Yes, for obvious reasons - Bush's wife is from Mexico and, of course, we already know about Rubio's parents being from Cuba. But, also because they understand the issues and the dilemma involved.

Tomorrow I will be attending a Mexican wedding where most of the people there will be illegals. That's going to be interesting.

I also find it interesting that Drudge never headlined that Christie was not running.
