I don't know much about the Chilean retirement system, but this seems like a good move from a political standpoint. Anytime you start talking about reforming social security, the Democrats pull out the "scare the elderly" tactic and accuse Republicans of wanting to throw the elderly out in the street. By pointing at the program in Chile as the model, Cain can blunt those attacks simply by stating "It didn't happen in Chile, it won't happen here."
Lots of people have good, sound plans...but actually making it happen takes way more than what a president can get done.
This guy is the darkhorse I tell you...I think he can surprise and win the whole thing

Herman Cain is a NATURAL BORN CITIZEN unlike Comrade Barry Soetoro aka Barack Hussein Obama.
Now THIS is getting to the core!!
Every one of those points is a winner for generating massive amounts of economic activity. The 5-pronged approach is very Reaganesque... common sense solutions!
Now, the key is getting the messaging out to the voting public in terms they can understand. We have a lot dim bulbs in the electorate.
Go Herman!!!!
This is what we need, clear and defined plans from someone from the business world who has to actually show results for their plans, not just political rhetoric.
Now it's time for a black AMERICAN president.

I like what I’ve heard him say so far. I’m concerned about how he’ll stand up under a lengthy, savage, unrelenting attack by the entire Democrat swarm. He’ll scare the heck out of them: a conservative who happens to be black will peel some of the black community’s votes away from Obama. If they perceive him to be a viable candidate, they’ll commit all of their resources to destroying him politically.
Taxes are lower than they’ve ever been. Pizza and burgers sounds about right.
Good ideas for a start but we need to: 1) Eliminate the income tax and the IRS and go to a national sales tax. 2) Allow offshore drilling near the coast all around the country. Also open up drilling and shale oil production anywhere in the country. 3) Have Congress in session for 6 months in Washington and the rest of the time they have to stay in their districts. 4) No person may give $$ or anything else of value to any candidate running for Congress unless that person is legally registered to vote for the candidate. 5) Eliminate the Dept. of Energy, the FDA, The Dept. of Education, the Ad Council, etc. 6) Abolish all nonprofit corporation laws and only allow tax breaks for “charities” that clothe, house or feed humans. 7) Eliminate all foreign aid. 8) Shut down most offshore military bases and move them to the southern border states. 8) Declare war on Mexico and take the country. 9) Sell off 80% of all federally owned lands and properties. 10) Dissolve the TSA......
I could go on and on.......
I’d like to see him get up with Sarah Palin and come up with a similar plan for energy independence.
Since he is strongly opposing all of Obama’s programs, it is quite obvious that he is a racist.....wait....oops....how about oreo?...uncle tome?....OH WELL....
Wonder how Herman Cain feels about the H1B visa program. Will he side with American workers who are losing their jobs to nationals from India or will he side with the Chamber of Commerce RINOs like Orrin Hatch.
- Cut government spending across the board, then drill down and eliminate wasteful programs and agencies.
DEFUND THE EPA, THE UN AND ANYTHING WHERE THE FEDS ARE CONNECTED TO EDUCATION!
I was hoping for a pizza subsidy....
But - did anyone see Mark Steyn on Hannity’s show last night? He just dismissed Cain, Palin, and other conservatives in favor of Tim Pawlenty, who he thought was maybe the best of a bad lot.
Mr. Steyn, meet the shark...
There's a winning campaign formula, if I ever saw one. It's in perfect alignment with the Tea-publican stance.
At least he has a plan and has stated it.
Maybe it will bring in some support money?
I’m still waiting for John Kerry’s plan, I mean... I...I did
really want to hear it, didn’t you all?
At this point Cain is definitely "The MAN with the PLAN".
I like his thinking, I like his attitude. He just may be the solution to FIXING our BROKEN system of government.
