Congrats to Cain. I love his message.

My biggest focus right now is finding a conservative to beat Romney then Obama.

It would be great if Cain can be that guy. I'm just not sure the country will hire a guy whose first elected position would be POTUS.

The finest example showing The American Dream is not dead.

Consider Cain has more executive experience then any of the other candidates, plus what a mess the professional politicians have made of everything, that is a point FOR Cain.

That reality does present itself in his case. I myself have a phobia about non-State Governors being elected POTUS, because you end up with the kind of results we are getting now. Having said that, here is what I find compelling about him:

1) He is a genuine Washington outsider, and not one who just claims to be. He, like Sarah, really is one of us and is a reminder of what is still great about America.

2) He seems to be a man of integrity, and is not ashamed of it.

3) He fits what I call the Principle of the Second. If you spend any time in Scripture you'll see repeatedly how it's not the first guy who gets it right, it's the second. Issac as opposed to Ishmael, Jacob over Esau, David instead of Saul became Israel's great king. And , of course, Jesus, the second Adam. It wasn't too long into O's term that I said that he was the first Black man elected President and he was working on being the last. I may have to reassess that sentiment.
