Herman Cain Has a Campaign Music Video; The Atlanta radio host wants you to board the Cain train.

By Joyce Jones (Black Entertainment Network)

Posted: 06/01/2011 12:00 PM EDT GOP presidential hopeful Herman Cain released a music video Tuesday that extols the qualities that he and his supporters say are the reason he would make a great president and paints a picture of the Tea Party as inclusive and definitely not racist. The video features both black and white conservative supporters and Cain says he was speaking at Tea Party rallies “before it was cool.”

“The Herman Cain Train” tells the story of the former Godfather’s Pizza CEO’s humble beginnings as a son of the South "who was raised the American way.” It includes early photographs of the candidate and his family. Country music singer Gary Eaton, who performs the song on the video, encourages listeners to “get on board the Herman Cain train.”

An African-American woman who appears in the video says that the Tea Party doesn’t care about skin color.

“When people ask me about the Tea Party, they ask me if it’s about color, and I say ‘yes it is, it’s about red, white and blue,’” she says.

Cain, who has no real political experience aside from a failed Senate bid in 2004 or the fundraising prowess that others in the race for the GOP presidential nomination possess, is nonetheless turning out to be a bit of a star on the campaign trail. He was proclaimed the winner of the party’s first primary debate last month and last week polled higher than candidates deemed less of a long shot than he is, such as former Minnesota Gov. Tim Pawlenty. As one man in the video says, he may not be able to raise a billion dollars like President Obama, but his supporters are going to raise some Cain.

“My great, great grandparents were slaves, and now I’m running for president of the United States of America,” Cain says in the video. “Is this a great country or what?”

The White House internals are getting them concerned; not full court press yet, but Herman is starting to register and that is what concerns them within the Office of Communications and the OPA in the West Wing. Any arrogant D.C. intern with a purple T badge would probably leak it to you, over a Starbucks.

Hadn't noticed that. LOL.

Well, welcome to the hot 2012 campaign! There will be more of that I am sure.

Yep, the kitchen heat is going to be turned up, no doubt, but I am sure his (Herman's) supporters are up for it.

Oh please - stop with the slave bit like it gives you a +10 from the start. What a turnoff!

Cain - you want people to see your video but you were against them seeing the pictures of bin laden which is their right. You are not a 'We the People" kinda person.

You haven't proven you are a fighter. You are doing it a**backwards - you prove yourself first then ask for votes. Seems your have an 'entitlement' issue going on. What you did in your career which lined your pockets has nothing to do with America or it's citizens. You offer nothing.

Please, oh PLEASE post more and disrupt more, my little troll friend.

You are making my case for me--that this man should have a chance. Your urgency on this is perfect, and showing up here (and in the above posted manner)absolutely, necessarily verifies matters. Cain is on a roll. As they say (and said in WWII), "if you arent taking flak, you are not over the target". Visit again!

Thanks again! ;-)

"if you arent taking flak, you are not over the target".

He couldn't handle flak - that's why he keeps below the target - his head goes high enough to say 'vote for me, I deserve it' and then it disappears. And up, again, to agree with Obama, his bro - NO photo viewing for Americans. The elite are allowed, just not the commoners.

Cain is NOT a 'We the People' candidate. His actions speak LOUDLY. He didn't have to speak up then - about the photos - but he did - why? It might be above the pay grade of a Cain supporter to grasp though because they want one thing - and whatever he does is OK by them. It's not rocket science - it's obvious.

You don't want to hear the truth - just like the Obama voters just pull the lever and ignore the info.

Could you expound upon that please?
