Agree. But I have some issues with Cain.

When he said..."If they call my bluff, they already know — they will know — what Option B is." He should have said "If they test my resolve....." Sounded too much like Obama with that statement.

Also, “If they [Iran] start lobbing rockets and stuff over at Israel, then we’re going to shoot back with Israel,” This statement is unwise if Iran lobs a nuke. Why wait until Israel is destroyed before attacking Iran?

He needs to make a bolder statement saying "I will order a first strike on Iran if Iran hasn't totally dismantled their nuclear program to the satisfaction of the Israel government by the time I take office."

Why isn’t he ready? Who is your choice...a politician?

A month ago he was clueless on mideast issues, now he'd be the first President to commit to going to war from Israel.

I like him, he'd make a great Secretary of Commerce, Secretary of Energy, Secretary of the Interior, Secretary of Agriculture, and Secretary of Energy.

All at once, I'm not aware of anything preventing that, he appears to have the managerial skills to fold them all into one department. Since he could fold them all into one, which is where they belong.

But we don't need to attack Iran to protect Israel. Cooperating with an Israeli attack, reasonable, though i can't imagine Israel trusting Hussein with that. The aftermath, we'll be drawn in, that's on Iran, and we should be prepared.

If we consider Iran a threat, and there are reasons we should, that's a different issue, but not what he said.

“I like him, but he’s not ready to be president - VP maybe”

And Obama was, or even is yet???

What are we (or the rest of the West) supposed to do - just stand by wringing our hands while Iran and its homicidal lunatic go nuclear??? The danger to the entire planet if that happens is apparently unimaginable for far too many people. Diplomacy is futile; the old Mutually Assured Destruction that worked with Russia matters not at all to radical Islamists who can’t wait to hasten the return of the Mahdi by killing us and ALL Infidels (non-Muslims)as dictated by Muhammad, creating a worldwide cataclysm of bloodshed.

Our current “leader” has neither the will nor the ability to get other relevant countries to join in meaningful, tough sanctions that could effectively cripple Iran, and the worthless U.N. has only our enemies’ best interests at heart, NOT ours or Israel’s.

So you tell me - are we and everyone else just supposed to accept it, roll over and play dead? That’s unacceptable. Reagan believed in peace through strength - our enemies feared us and our friends respected us. It’s not too late to achieve that again (Ghadaffi gave up his nuke program because he feared Bush).

But currently, we are ruled (yes, ruled) by a traitor the whole world laughs at, and who is actively working toward our demise.

Herman Cain, if you read his resume, is far from being a dummy. He’s a quick study and what he doesn’t know at this moment, he’ll learn in no time. He has a commanding presence and impressive demeanor, only unlike BHO, it’s genuine, as is his love and gratitude for our Republic.

Only time will tell if he can hang in financially, but he’d be a wonderful President.
