That said: he is not the right man to occupy the Oval Office.
As time goes on, it’s becoming an uncomfortable truth, that many FReepers can better answer the questions posed to Herman Cain, particularly the questions relating to foreign policy. Of course, he’s the one on stage under pressure, but still ...
If you watched the debates on foreign policy, and it is amazing how many who have so much to say did not even watch them, you would have seen all of the great experts so much more knowledgeable about foreign affairs than Mr. Cain, when asked what they would do about Iran, Iraq, Afghanistan, Libya and China.....
Every single one of them gave a different answer.
Iran was the best example. The suggestions ran the extremes of make love (Ron Paul) to bomb them. Sanctions, blockades....
Now if they are all so up on the topic, tell me why they did not agree.
The fact is that none of them, without privy to a high security briefing by the CIA, the military, etc., do not have enough information to make a decision.
So they were all just running their mouths.
The silliest of all were the suggestions of sanctions and a blockade.
We have had sanctions against Cuba for 50 years and Castro is the longest living dictator in modern history.
As for blockades, I assume that would mean that any Russian or Chinese ship or plane would be fired upon when they attempted to breach the blockade.
Why don’t I like that idea? Well, I well remember WWII and I am not looking forward to WWIII.
Before you accept the MSM’s anointed experts and condemn Cain, think more about how widely varying the experts were in their opinions. That should scare the hell out of you.
“That said: he is not the right man to occupy the Oval Office.”
AND, there is no way on earth that he could win against Obama, none.
