he has since clarified his position on the 2nd Amendment.This is his campaign, where he has all sorts of people correcting his off-the-cuff mistakes. What would happen if he were president and he did something like confuse states' rights with something that applies to the whole country because it is in the Bill of Rights? He is learning as he goes, MAYBE, because he made this same mistake with abortion. He thought keeping government out of it sounded good until he realized if he was pro-life that wouldn't work. He gets his sound bites all mixed up, and that is because he has been dealing with these issues for about fifteen minutes. I don't think we can afford this. Man the lifeboats.

Our presiding pres__ent doesn't know how many states are in the union or whether he is a muslim or Christian -- and you are worried about Cain's verbal gaffes? GW Bush willfully imposed a "too big too fail" crony capitalism upon us -- and you are worried about Cain confusing our rights? GHW Bush promised and lied outright about "no new taxes" -- and you are concerned with Cain having fifteen minutes in government? It was Clinton that permitted the export of our defense technology to China as I recall.
Bottom line is that the *only* candidates on that stage that are working for WE THE PEOPLE instead of corporations or lobbyists are Herman Cain, Michele Bachmann, Rick Santorum, Ron Paul, and maybe Newt Gingrich *if* you believe he has been to the river and seen the error of his ways. Choosing any candidate outside that group is a kick in the teeth to our Founding Fathers. I won't do it.
I'd rather the biggest amateur in the pack have the job as long as he has our best interests in mind, as opposed to letting another corporate/lobbyist bootlicker have it.
