Cain’s Not Dumb … He’s Just Smarter Than Most of You

Damn this slow internet!

[buccaneer81]

To call him "a continuation of Obama" tells me that you haven't been paying attention to either or both. First, Cain got his start before affirmative action.

Lonestar is a flat-out racist. She has shown it over and over again.

[buccaneer81]

Ping.

I have to agree with you, my brother was in guidance control for almost all of the space shuttles. Knowing my brothers personality, and observing Cain's utterances these last few months,I am sure Cain would have fit in quite well at NASA.

So it would seem. Equating all black people, even those with a very real and impressive list of accomplishments to their credit, with those persons who are skating on the need to fill a 'quota' is racist in and of itself. The impression may arise from local experiences, and not be merely a matter of prejudice.

As I have pointed out for a long time, though, this is the seminal damning aspect of affirmative action: that those who are competent will be assumed to be of the same caliber as those who are not. This entrenches racist stereotypes, it does not remove them.

There are those, however, for those who are willing to look, who have accomplished much and would have without the program.

Cain’s done no gaffes as far as I’ve heard. Have only known him to be articulate and well spoken.

Liberals, leftists, live in a world of their own; where nothing makes sense. Their explanations (of why Cain’s not a REAL black man) are convoluted.

Our son was a liberal and voted for Obama; he’s feeling very BETRAYED now. Only those too proud to admit they made a booboo keep pinning their hopes on Obama.

I can’t believe any one on FR would ask that question. The answer is simple, 100 times more money in OWNING a national Pizza chain than a job as rocket scientist.

If Cain, with average intelligence (as you call it) has a net worth upto $6.8 Million, then I must be a duffer because my net worth is no where that. I imagine you are very intelligent and using that superior intelligence you are perhaps worth many times more than Cain.

If you want below average intelligence, Perry is your guy.

Absolutely brilliant response LMAO!

For whatever reason the (decidedly leftist) media haven’t been attacking Romney nor have they (so far) been bringing up much of Newt’s past. That seems odd to me, unless they don’t fear him any more than they fear Romney.

That is a very astute observation. I concur. The MSM has all the material they need on Mitt & Newt. It will fill a book of 700 pages. And as you correctly deduced, they are not scared of them, since they both will be easy to defeat by Obama in general.

OTOH Cain pulls the rug right under from Obama's feet by muddling his lock on 95% of black vote. They must try to destroy Cain BEFORE he gets anywhere near nomination. They do not have enough material on Cain to destroy him post-nomination. A black man with Cain's background is too dangerous for the anointed one.

I have also noticed the Gloria Allred crew has suddenly gone underground after Cain hired Lin Wood, the famous anti-defamation lawyer. That was a very smart move by Herman Cain.

How can you say any recent president has done a good job?

Nixon gave us galloping inflation which his WIN (Whip Inflation Now) campaign with price controls was a total disaster. Reagan actually tripled federal spending levels in just 3 years. Bush-41 gave us tax increases, Clinton gave us Hillarycare scare but was smart enough to partner with GOP congress later, and Bush-43 gave us prescription meds and Iraq war, both costing Trillions.

I had it with experienced politicians. Time to go for a proven successful businessman.

[Revolting cat!]

Frankly, I don’t think that Buffett, Gates or Corzine would get us out of trouble, but what the heck, let’s give Cain a chance!

[magritte]

Hmmmm...net worth equal smarts??

Kanye West - Net worth $70 million
Judge Judy - Net worth $95 million
Jesse Ventura - Net Worth $12 million

[federal__reserve]

Buffet out of those 3 could, but he is not available.
Gates was more a computer programming geek than a manager. Microsoft has been run by a different CEO person than Gates for a very long time.
Corzine has never managed a main street business. He is from Goldman Sachs specializing in making buyout deals.

I woulda liked to see Lee Iacocca run for president. Would have made a great president. Perot was a bit nutty for my taste.

[federal__reserve]

Correcting my typo, 3 years should be 8 years.

In business world, your earnings are usually based on your success rate. So yes, net worth is a good indicator of your business acumen.

Those TV & Movie stars & Wrestling/sports stars are a different situation. There success is very subjective. They are also not known to handle money well.

What this country direly needs is a good economy manger, with conservative core.

[lonestar]

He must have had a crystal ball to know that is where he would wind up.

[lonestar]

If you had been here more than three months you might understand how stupid your comment was.

Cain benefited from Jesse Jackson's PUSH program.

When Cain was in BK management program, he didn't qualify to own one.

[redinIllinois]

Art Laffer said that Herman Cain’s tax plan would get the economy booming again.

You do know who Art Laffer is, right?

Rush Limbaugh said Herman Cain won the FL straw poll because he’s consistently conservative

Don’t forget, they told us for weeks that whoever won that straw poll would be the nominee.

[federal__reserve]

I usually ignore totally illogical comments. Congrats, your qualified!
