I have no doubt that he is a great leader, and would surround himself with quality, capable and erudite advisers. But right now he looks a bit like he hired some of Obama’s dumbos who stumbled during Obama's campaign and still do with advising the current administration. Cain's hesitations and unprofessional responses do not do him justice and cause concern coming from someone we want to entrust with the safety and welfare of our country. Come on, Herman...fire up that train with some good fuel and get going back on track
I think that Cain understands better than most what has happened with Libya because technically the Taliban and Al-Qaedia are linked at the hip since 10/2001. They did appear on the battle field and that is when Obama started supporting Libya with air support.
His failing is not in his knowledge but in his answering of the questions in a cognitive strong authoritative manner.
I am beginning to suspect that the grind of a campaign trail is wearing on him. Some life long politicians are up to the task and even thrive on that type of environment. - But being a new comer, I think sadly he is just exhausted and his head is spinning to be honest.
