Just wondering, they always refer to Cain as “former Godfathers Pizza CEO”...When Odumbo was running did they refer to him as “former community organizer”? Just saying here like a CEO for a corporation is somehow not as qualified and somebody else?

Of course, a subtle put-down at every opportunity. How about “former board chairman of the Federal Reserve Bank” or “former president of the National Restaurant Association”? Doesn’t have nearly the put-down potential, of course.
It's as if the lamestream media thinks that this marginalizes him in some way. As if to say "Oh, he just ran a chain of pizza parlors" so that people will wonder if he's presidential material. Of course that's only part of the story. Cain was made CEO and President of Godfather's by parent company Pillsbury to turn the franchise around, which was floundering. In just over a year, Cain returned the chain to profitability. This was AFTER Pillsbury put him in charge of 400 Burger Kings in the Philadelphia area which was the least profitable region in the BK chain. Within 3 years, Cain had turned them into the MOST profitable BK chain in the country.
All of this is just scratching the surface of Cain's lifetime achievement. Read his biography if you are not familiar with it, you will be amazed at what he has achieved. He'd done much, much more than run a chain of pizza parlors.
Would you prefer they refer to him as ‘former talk radio host’?
