>>>As governor [Sarah Palin] urged her state senators to push acceptance of the Law of the Sea Treaty. <<<

This is the letter she wrote. Sounds reasonable.

This is a FR thread on the subject.

>>>I do need to know more about [Herman Cain], but I could easily see him as a V.P. selection. <<<

Why not President?

>>>I am saddened to see you state that you think his race would cost him Republican votes.<<<

You already lowered him to the VP slot. For what reason? Why only VP?

>>>. . .there is a real advantage to lofting a man like Cain. It would demonstrate once and for all that Republicans were not racists, it would loft a man back youth would be well to emulate, and his business instincts would be a real asset to him, or his president.<<<

Are implying we should vote for him because he is black? I am opposed to affirmative action. It is a racist ideology. Maybe we should just consider his qualifications, which are considerable, as you wrote:

>>>He has worked for a number of top corporations<<<

He also served on the Board of Directors of the Federal Reserve Bank of Kansas City.

I'm a little disappointed.  Couldn't you provide a link to the United Nations Law of the Sea Treaty Page too?  Perhaps you can get their spokesperson to make a presentation to the forum too since it's so reasoned.  We should probably get all Conservagives on baord, don't you think.  /s

Reasonable sounding reasons, do not make an action that would be harmful to the U.S. right, if your wishes were carried out.  It simply demonstrates that you fail to fully understand what you're trying to push through.

>>>I do need to know more about [Herman Cain], but I could easily see him as a V.P. selection. <<<

Well, I have posted on the forum that I could support either a Bachmann/Cain ticket or a Cain/Bachmann ticket.  I mentioned Bachmann here because I know more about her.

Rather sinsiter don't you think.

Nice try.  No banana...

Was that the totality of my comments.  Did I state that we should vote for him based on race no matter what else came up.  Did I mention other aspects?  Wasn't it clear I was lofting the man for Black youth to emulate based on the idea he had sound ideals?  Did I touch on his business acumen?

Poor baby, got your feelings hurt and now you're lashing out.  I understand.  Give if a day or so.  It won't hurt so much.

I am opposed to affirmative action. It is a racist ideology. Maybe we should just consider his qualifications, which are considerable, as you wrote:

Oh, you did notice that.  Then you just lied.  Okay.  If that's how you wish to represent yourself, go ahead.

Who proposed affirmative action tiger?  Did I make any reference to him deserving the job whether he was qualfied or not?  No.

Did I mention he had considerable qualifications?  You answered that question above.

There are times when things fit well, and a number of good things can be accomplished when a plan fully gels.  Oh my, who knew?  How anti-Conservative can we get???  /s

>>>He has worked for a number of top corporations<<<

Yes he did.  I'm not real thrilled with some of his comments on TARP either, but I don't remember exactly what he said.  I do remember having a negative reaction to it.

I had forgotten the full extent of my comments to you on Cain.  Here they are:

I agree that Cain is a class act.  I do need to know more about him, but I could easily see him as a V.P. selection.  I might in time be able to see him as the presidential choice, once I know more about him.  I am saddened to see you state that you think his race would cost him Republican votes.  Why are you buying into that silly notion?  We have black mayors, black governors, and black leaders across this nation.  He has worked for a number of top corporations, and it's my take most of them probably had a white majority board, most likely tilting toward the Republican party.  What's more, there is a real advantage to lofting a man like Cain.  It would demonstrate once and for all that Republicans were not racists, it would loft a man back youth would be well to emulate, and his business instincts would be a real asset to him, or his president.  And ultimately, a Bachmann/Cain ticket, would kill two birds with one stone.

In your response you asked me why I relegated him to just the V.P. slot.  That had already been covered in my comments to you, and those comments directly contradict what you were trying to imply.
