Cain may not like guns, but he won’t mess around with the second amendment.

“Cain is also anti-gun”

BS. Not being lock-step with everything the NRA is for is not being anti-gun. I find lots of proof that Cain stongly supports the 2nd amendment and is NOT anti-gun.

BLITZER: How about gun control?

CAIN: I support the 2nd amendment.

B: So what’s the answer on gun control?

C: The answer is I support, strongly support, the 2nd amendment. I don’t support onerous legislation that’s going to restrict people’s rights in order to be able to protect themselves as guaranteed by the 2nd amendment.

B: Should states or local government be allowed to control guns, the gun situation, or should…

C: Yes

B: Yes?

C: Yes.

B: So the answer is yes?

C: The answer is yes, that should be a state’s decision.

He doesn't favor the "incorporation" of the 2nd Amendment WRT states and localities. IOW, he believes it binds the Fedgov only. Probably a consistent position for a true Federalist -- the (Federal) Bill of Rights wasn't written to limit the powers of the states, only the powers of the Federal govt.

He doesn't seem to favor gun control at the Federal level.
