We are talking qualifications for President. Certainly the Leader of the American Revolution, George Washington, who gave us the ultimate victory over the British to give birth to the greatest nation in history of mankind was the most qualified to be President. The Founding Fathers who wrote our Constitution and put down the principals on which the government was founded were the most qualified to be President.

On the other hand a Pizza CEO whose toughest decision is to close or open a Pizza joint or to increase or reduce the price of Pizza is not qualified to be President.

I was waiting for the Cain the TALEKR supporter to start foolishly using the Founding Fathers to justify why Cain the TALKER should be President.

Also you may try Eisenhower just for fun. Eisenhower was not elected to a public office before and he became President but at the same time Eisenhower was the Supreme Commander of the Allied forces in Europe and led the greatest invasion in history of mankind to defeat the Nazis. Yeah, Herman Cain the Pizza CEO is qualified to be President since Eisenhower was not elected to a public office as well (super extreme sarcasm).

Your ignorance is showing....and let me explain why.

First, Cain was much more than Godfather's CEO...he held many other positions of leadership which qualifies him as leader of the executive branch.

But let's focus on his CEO experience.

Since you diminish his leaership at Godfather's Pizza, you clearly do not understand what a CEO actually does.

I thought only liberals believed CEOs just sit around and watch the stock price.

CEOs do much, much more than a general in the military.....and they do it with far fewer resources.

CEOs do not know how to do every job inside a company....they hire the right people for those jobs.

CEOs do not work alone. They bring in a leadership team who advises them.

CEOs set the overall strategy in conjunction with those executives.

Cain did not come up with 9-9-9 on his own, he went to economists. That is what a great leader does.

Being President is a leadership role. You want someone who knows how to put together great teams and someone who sets a clear, attainable set of goals that they will achieve.
