Who cares that the US Constitution gives Congress the power to establish a uniform Rule of Naturalization, if Cain says it’s a state’s rights issue, then it must be so.

After all, he is Cain, and he can say nothing wrong.

Oh, but he said we should let the states decide citizenship, and then he said not to do so if it violates federal law.

He clearly doesn’t know citizenship is a power of Congress, but I can hear now the special pleading of those following their own pizza a messiah.

Sure, and abortion is awful but go illegal if you just gotta. That’s Herman Cain. He can get away with anything until the general election rolls around.

Then they’re going to tie this crap around his neck and there will be no place to hide.

So, let’s do it Cain’s way, let’s have California let Chicoms and Islamo-fascists be citizens, and we’ll let Nevadans choose Uzbekistanis and Monacans. We Ohioans will favor Germans and the Scots-Irish, of course.

Oh, and surely SCOTUS will allow citizens not to be recognized by one state if that state just feels like it? I’m sure they will. /sarc.

This is such a truly remarkable idea, similar in it’s incomprehensibility with Cain’s stand on life.

I've been saying for weeks that Cain is just making this stuff up as he goes along. He wanted to try to distinguish himself from Gingrich (who has a REAL plan) and he comes up with THIS? It's like his position on Abortion, where he is against it, but doesn't think the government should dictate what the woman's choice is. And his idea that a president can't "advance legislation".

It's too bad that Cain isn't the man his supporters think he is. They pretend that Cain thinks like they do and then when he steps in it, they are here to clean his shoes.

This stuff will not be lost on the electorate.

Why are you pinging me for Heaven’s sake? Cain’s not up to your standards. Other candidates are. Good for you. That’s what primary season is for. I’m not going to change my mind based on some rant of some anonymous person on an internet forum. People who have such a vehement dislike of another person as you seem to have of Cain tend to twist words, lift them out of context to support your view. You support who you want and I’ll do the same. You aren’t going to change my mind and I’m not going to change yours.
