We all know that Newt has more “knowledge” but that is only half the battle. If you can’t inspire, and sell, and establish trust, it doesn’t matter how smart you are.
Gingrich is a good leader of politicians, Cain is a good leader of the people in general. The average Joe understands and connects with Cain. That is crucial in the general election.
Cain/Gingrich would be a juggernaut.
Again, I am really nervous about Gingrich’s ideas of centralizing medical information. Seriously. And in another debate, I did not like his pell grants to states for K-12. We need to get gov’t out of education.
The “average Joe” cannot lead America in these times if economic and international crisis. I agree that life experience counts, but actual experience, knowledge, and foreign policy expertise is, IMO, crucial.
Yes, there were details that we’d need to jump on. Gingrich just still occasionally lets the policy wonk of 20 years ago surface.
I don’t think this is something that can’t be fixed.
Both men were fantastic in being able to articulate big ideas and, more importantly, identify the principles guiding them.
Cain had more of a presence than Gingrich, but they made quite a team, I can say that. I love the potential here.
UNQUALIFIED to be President. NO EXPERIENCE. A foreign policy NOVICE. Running a company that makes pizza isn't a qualification to be president. Being the head of the National RESTAURANT Association is not a qualification to be president. FOOD again. Maybe he could be white house chef?
Radio talk show host, now there is a job that says “PRESIDENT” all over it. Are you Cain people in a trance?
