Dear fellow Georgians,
This past Saturday morning I was honored to address the Georgia GOP State Convention in Columbus. The energy and excitement that was felt at the convention is proof that Georgians are ready to believe in the promise of a better America.
The United States is being challenged by the war on terror, the war on our moral foundation and the war on our economic infrastructure. But America is still the greatest country in the world because of the bold leadership of the past and the American Dream that is still alive today.
In 1994 we had a vision for a better America and a desire to "restore the bonds of trust between the people and their elected representatives." Ten years later the Republican Revolution that was started right here in Georgia has stalled because too many members of Congress, like my opponent Rep. Isakson, are more concerned with positionship rather than leadership.
I am the only candidate for the U.S. Senate with the bold leadership and passion for change. I have been working on replacing the federal tax code for 10 years and am the only candidate who has the depth of understanding to provide the necessary leadership in the U.S. Senate to make it happen. I am also firm in my belief that life begins at conception and will do everything I can to protect the lives of the unborn.
As I told the GOP delegates at the State Convention, If you want someone who will show up and vote and not rock the boat, that's Rep. Isakson. If you want someone who will rock the boat then drive the boat, Im your man.
July 20th offers the opportunity to bring bold new leadership that will transform the way the United States Senate works.
Under my Contract with Georgia, I will restart the Republican Revolution that pledged "the end of government that is too big, too intrusive, and too easy with the public's money."
On the first day of the 109th Congress, I will immediately begin working on the following major reforms, aimed at restoring the faith and trust of the American people in their government:
FIRST, Shut down the IRS and replace it with the Fair Tax;
SECOND, Implement mandatory spending caps on all discretionary spending to balance the federal budget;
THIRD, Protect life which begins at conception;
FOURTH, Restructure Social Security so that we continue to provide for our Nation's seniors that are approaching retirement age, but allow for younger taxpayers to invest a portion of their Social Security taxes in personal retirement accounts;
FIFTH, Further delay BRAC so that we can focus on winning the war on terrorism and determine how each military base can better continue the fight to defend America;
SIXTH, Totally restructure how Medicare is being delivered in order to achieve greater heath care affordability and accessibility for all Americans;
SEVENTH, Fight to protect the definition of marriage as the legal union of one man and one woman;
EIGHTH, Fight to end the Cloture Rule in the United States Senate so that President George W. Bush's conservative judges can be confirmed;
NINTH, Fight to protect our Second Amendment rights to keep and bear arms;
TENTH, Ensure that our Religious Liberties are not compromised.
It is time to bring back the ideas born under the Republican Revolution. People need to be shown that government is not the answer, government is the problem. We need to remind America that the Republican party stands for fiscal conservatism, strong moral values and commitment to pushing our Nation forward. This is a new time, a new day and this is the dawn of a new Republican Party. This is just the beginning. It is morning again here in Georgia.

Go Herman Go! Pray for Herman Cain!
Click Here for the Herman Cain for US Senate Web Site
Wasn't Herman Cain the black CEO of a pizza chain that kicked Clinton's ass in the debates a few years back? If so, let's run him for President. If he's for the Second Amendment, I'll even crack my tight wallet for him.
Yes on all counts! Check out the web site...
I love this guy. He has my vote!
...which would summarily handle issues 2, 4, 6, and 10.
We must choose this man to lead us.
Herman Cain is the man we need in Georgia and the man this country needs.
FIRST, Shut down the IRS and replace it with the Fair Tax
Herman Cain is definitely one to the good guys, and sorely needed in the Senate.
A Taxreform bump for you all.
If you would like to be added to this ping list let me know.
John Linder in the House & Saxby Chambliss Senate, offer a comprehensive bill to kill all income and payroll taxes outright, and provide a IRS free replacement in the form of a pure consumption tax:
H.R.25, S.1493
A bill to promote freedom, fairness, and economic opportunity by repealing the income tax and other taxes, abolishing the Internal Revenue Service, and enacting a national retail sales tax to be administered primarily by the States.
Bump for Herman!
Mr. Cain is awesome!
I look forward greatly to the day we can call him Senator.
I believe he will bring honor to that title: a rarity these days.
Yep. The chain is Godfather's Pizza...
If you want on (or off) of my black conservative ping list, please let me know via FREEPmail. (And no, you don't have to be black to be on the list!)
Extra warning: this is a high-volume ping list.
I do like what I see of Cain.
Rock that boat, Mr. Cain...MUD
Even then, he'll probably prefer to be called a 'Problem Solver' as he so passionately stated on Royal Marshall's radio program last week.
This guy sounds right on target.
We need this guy for President in 2008. Moral clarity and purpose bump.
I get to actually vote for him.
That's gonna feel good.
CHEERS FROM MY CORNER.
