WASHINGTON—Many Republican voters are drawn to Herman Cain's forceful campaign style. But an examination of his comments and proposals raises questions about his grasp of issues he would face if elected president.
On a few occasions he has quickly corrected his statements. Other times he has laughed off his critics, telling people to have a sense of humor.

No, he is foolish. Newt 100%
I got my popcorn popping.
I’ll take Cain, gaffes and all, anytime over the Marxist trash in the White House now. Mr. Marxist Trash has committed plenty of gaffes and can’t talk without the TOTUS.
Yes he is ready!!!!!
They have our best interests at heart, and we need to obey them.
Cain is the man! with the plan...he may stumble at times but that is aokay. He is not scripted like most politicians and that is marvelous!
Would have sounded more impressive if he had said "My mind is a raging torrent, flooded with rivulets of thought cascading into a waterfall of creative alternatives."
Newt MAYBE for VP. He cannot be the top spot. Too liberal on Global Warming, marriage disasters, cheating with a girl while trying to get Bill Clinton out of the White House. Horrible candidate.
"It ain't gonna happen."
After 3 years, is Hussein ready?
The trivialization of Cain is asinine. But what else should we expect from fickle conservatives?
"People who oppose Obama are said to be racists - so I guess I'm a racist. " ~Herman Cain
The worst part of this incident, in my opinion, is not Cain's pauses, but rather when Cain started to answer: "I do not agree with the way he handled it for the following reason. No, that's a different one . . ." That did not come across as "not scripted" - it came across as Cain forgetting which scripted answer to use.
At least Cain has executive experience, successful executive experience, I might add. He knows how to hire people that know what he doesn't know.
Putting the slicksters in office hasn't done anything but get us exactly where we find ourselves today.
Congress has totally lost control of themselves and will do nothing to change the debt crisis unless and until there is someone in the White House that is willing to say STOP!
As of today, I'm still willing to give Cain a chance. He certainly couldn't do any worse. This far out, my opinion can change. I am open to find something that will save this country.
Cain understands the difference between liberty and tyranny...patriotism and treason. That’s enough for me.
Further, he has "new" advisors who are, (as Cain would say " experts"), so the problem isn't that he's not being informed. It's he lacks the basic foundation of understanding what they are informing him of in order to bring together a picture based on the those foundations,(which by the way he has stated that is what he does best.) But you cannot do so without the basics to build on and understanding what you are being informed of.
From what I've seen we're observing a small portion of the huge "learning curve" Cain has to overcome..in action... and he's not doing well which is clearly being played out now.
It's a disappointment but he really just isn't ready for the Highest office in our land.
Is he a polished, career politician? No.
Does he have the wherewithall to surround himself with great advisors (he already has begun)? Yes.
10 REASONS CAIN IS ABLE TO BE PRESIDENT
1) Mathematician for the Navy, where he worked on missile ballistics (making him a rocket scientist)2) Computer systems analyst for Coca-Cola 3) VP of Corporate Data Systems and Services for Pillsbury 4) Business Manager for 400 Burger King restaurants He learned the business from the ground up to turn the poorest performers into three the best performers in three years) 5) CEO and owner of Godfather’s Pizza 6) Chairman of the National Restaurant Association 7) Adviser to the Federal Reserve System and Chairman of the Kansas City Federal Reserve Bank 8)Writer, public speaker, and WSB-Atlanta Radio Host 9)Associate Minister 10) faithful husband, and father.
Herman Cain did all this starting from rock bottom!
A serious liability for Alfonse Obama.
