Debunked lie. Some are repeating it as fact, because they can’t be bothered doing a few SECONDS of typing in a search engine.
“Herman Cain spent the Vietnam war evaluating the capabilities of the Chinese to deliver a nuclear weapon onto the heads of our forces in South Vietnam.
He examined the test launches of the Dongfeng 1 (SS-1) and plotted out the trajectories for a 500kg warheads.
When China started testing the Dongfeng 2 (CSS-1) Cain plotted out the trajectories and capabilities of it’s delivery of 15 kiloton nuclear weapons.
Both of these missiles were provided to the PRC by the Soviets, Cain analysed data from the Russian test launches and determined the risk to U.S. troops in SE Asia.
Cain also observed the development of China’s first domestically produced missile, Dongfeng 3 (CSS-2) and plotted out it’s use with China’s 15-20KT fissile devices as well as China’s new thermonuclear devices.
Finally, Cain was involved in the determination that China’s Dongfeng 4 (CSS-3) was capable of delivering both fissile and thermonuclear devices to both Moscow and Guam as well as cover the entire deployment of U.S. forces in SE Asia.
Cain is well aware of China’s nuclear missile capability, the only reasonable conclusion is that Cain was indeed referring to China’s attempts to develop and sail their first nuclear aircraft carrier and their attempts to develop more dangerous nuclear cruisers.”

“Finally, Cain was involved in the determination that China’s Dongfeng 4 (CSS-3) was capable of delivering both fissile and thermonuclear devices to both Moscow and Guam as well as cover the entire deployment of U.S. forces in SE Asia...
...Cain is well aware of China’s nuclear missile capability, the only reasonable conclusion is that Cain was indeed referring to China’s attempts to develop and sail their first nuclear aircraft carrier and their attempts to develop more dangerous nuclear cruisers.”
Anybody who thinks Cain doesn’t know China has nukes is just a moron...no better than lil Joey Scarborough and Mika (my daddy is Zbig).
Being fairly well read on nuclear arms myself, I’d also posit that the Chinese are attempting to increase their accuracy and MIRV capability as well as longer range missiles. All of which could be included in Cain’s, “nuclear capability” remark.
Now the Palinization will begin...SNL will have a black comedian say “China doesn’t have nukes” and intellectual heavyweights like Mika, Capeheart, and EdShow will make it real on TV and print.
So, step up heavyweight Freepers emulate your daddy EdShow.
