I love that he is genuine enough to say when he doesn’t know something (right to return).

The republican elite (the architect, krauthammer, etc)will try to paint this as being uninformed and unable to lead.

I say a leader isn’t someone that can answer all questions without serious thought and lead followers into a hornets nest simply to demonstrate confidence. Rather a leader is smart enough to know where to find the answers and then lead to an actual solution.

I am liking Cain!

To think that someone with no clue about Washington is suited to reining Washington in is deluded IMO.

The LRon Paul 'End the Fed' stuff has no solution. And the unintended consequences would be greatly harmful.

“Unless all nations agree to do so simultaneously, the dissolving of a central bank amounts to the economic equivalent of unilateral disarmament.”

End the Fed? Ron Paul is Wrong for All the Right Reasons

It has come up in interview after interview and here is where he stands (Herman Cain on the Fed), in his own words:

He said, "Don't END the Fed; fix it." ... His follow-up question to people who do want to end it is, "If you end it, what would you replace it with?" ... Then he said that auditing the Fed is OK, but he is "not leading that parade."

So who amongst the candidates is suited? Only Gingrich has served in dc so I guess he is our only choice.

What a load of crap. So now the Repubs only answer to Obama is a guy that appears to be blacker than Obama? Except of course, he’ll be pilloried by the “black” community as an uncle tom because he’s gotten an education, so no.....it won’t work. Heard on CNN this weekend the clarion call to the black community not to be fooled by Cain and let the black vote be split.

IF Mr. Cain is the nominee, the black vote will most assuredly be split. Here's how:
The inner city youth, welfare recipients, food stamp recipients, homeless, and cronically jobless will vote for the stain. All the rest would vote for Mr. Cain.

Question is: what's the headcount (assuming that the former group will have at least 20% voter fraud within)?

You would rather keep trusting the proven empty promises of the establishment crowd?

How’s that working out for us?

I’ll take my chances on a problem solver instead of a politician.

If Herman Cain is half as good as he looks right now--he's the one we need. He just might be the man to jerk this country out of its self-destructive decadence (viz. the Left) and return it to ascendancy!

Don't let us down, Herman!

We can't afford another setback!

To a Conservative what difference does the Race or Sex matter.

When a White Male Conservative throws his hat into the Ring I will consider him. No More RINOs I don't care how Lilly white or how much Experience he has.

For this White Male Conservative from GA Cain/Palin.

No. What you want is neither.

Someone with enough executive government experience not to get rolled, but with a decidedly outsider, reformer cast. That is part of why Americans so like to vote governors in as their presidents. (Just have to be careful that the guv isn’t part of the Beltway Establishment.)

I agree with you. Cain doesn’t have the proven experience I am looking for. So he headed up a pizza chain and some burger joints. That doesn’t qualify him for president of Coca-Cola, let alone president of the USA. What Cain does is he allows people to deny the reality of the situation.

I saw his interview with Hannity and was not impressed.

Go Hermanator!

Yep!

I see the anti-Herman crowd is in full swing. The Ron Paul people (like Vox Day) will attack him, plus, of course, Demoperatives.

Ideal? What’s that got to do with anything? There is no ideal choice.

Exactly there is no Perfect Choice and my Perfect choice will not be your Perfect Choice.

I hope the FReepers are not looking for the Perfect choice are we will have 4 more of BHO.
