Herman Cain: 'I'm not supposed to know anything about foreign policy'

Among them:
He defended his view that presidents and presidential candidates don't need to be immersed in the fine print of world affairs - they simply need to be leaders who can surround themselves with the right people and sift through their advice.
"I'm not supposed to know anything about foreign policy. Just thought I'd throw that out," he said, a dig at his critics.
"I want to talk to commanders on the ground. Because you run for president (people say) you need to have the answer. No, you don't! No, you don't! That's not good decision-making," said Cain.

“The Fuhrer is going to liquidate all of the Jews in Europe”...in 1929 you would sound like a nutter. Kinda like saying; The POTUS is a muslim terrorist and is guilty of treason by providing aid and comfort to AQ. That would be crazy.
No locontendre.
This is just a thought; could Cain be this years Fred Thompson? Charismatic but not a serious candidate.
