Have courage. Cain has even fighting the good fight for a long time. He called out Obama and Hillary in 2008 for the socialists they are. He called out Clinton in the 90s for “Hillarycare”. He even called out Bush on occasion. There are articles about Cain on FR going back to 2004.
He is doing this because he can not stand the direction the country is headed. He prayed about this decision for a year before committing.
He had already been promoting the conservative cause in commentaries, in his book, and talking about it on his show night after night for at least 8 years. Those of us who followed him from the beginning can confirm this, and there are a lot of us on FR.
Cain has had a very interesting life. I really like and admire the man.

If you don’t know a lot about him, I’d encourage you to read up on him. A lot more to the man than Godfather’s Pizza.
