Please bear in mind ... I only want an honest answer.

I like Palin and Cain both. Other than his devotion to the excellent Fair Tax, what makes him superior to her? Is he strong on borders?

I think Palin and Cain will appeal to many of the same people. I know I like them both. Cain’s top priority on immigration is to secure the border. He also thinks Arizona should be allowed to do whatever they need to do to protect their citizens.

Those who prefer Cain over Palin probably do so because his business experience is superior to hers and he’s tougher on unions than she is. He would also jump uglier into Obama’s face in a debate.

But superior would be in the eyes of the beholder. They both have an incredible appeal in front of a crowd.

He has been calling for a secure border for a long time, and if you get a chance to watch the announcement speech, about halfway through the speech, he thumps Obama for giving Brazil money for drilling, and says we are going to be our own best customer, not theirs.

Two minutes later, he thumps him again for suing Arizona, and says that instead of suing them, we should be sending them a prize - a peace prize.

It’s a hilarious moment in an awesome speech, and if you can find a half hour to watch it, you’ll be inspired to be hopeful about America again.

It’s going to be an exciting primary watching Cain, Palin and Bachmann (if they make it official) talking about how great the country is, instead of apologizing for it.
