Another candidate has entered the Republican presidential field. Former Godfather's Pizza CEO Herman Cain announced his candidacy for the Republican nomination in his home town of Atlanta, Georgia today. Instead of announcing via social networking websites, Cain, currently a talk radio host, made his announcement at a rally in Centennial Olympic Park.
On his website, Cain writes, "The biggest barrier to solving many of our national problems is lack of leadership."

Palin/West or Cain/Bachmann 2012.
He’s going to need money and grassroots support, and enormous amounts of both to overcome everyone who hopes he fails: the Democrats, the media (redundant, I know) and the establishment GOP. BUT, if we choose him, there’s nothing they can do about it. Let’s stop hoping for unlikely darkhorses to emerge and starting focusing on the winner we have before us in Herman Cain.

Here here ! What you said!! :)
I am so glad he’s chosen to get in. I didn’t see the speech, but I wonder if he said anything like ‘he’s in it to the bitter end’, so we know he won’t pull a ‘Fred-end’ on his supporters. I’ll get fired and give up my money and time if he gives that kind of indication. He’s got to commit to go the distance and ignore the media numbers game. We’re going to have to beat down the high spending RINOs, and it’s going to be tough as hell. I suspect Cain will give ‘em hell. Let’s Cain ‘em !
So what is their point? We have a slump of a man in the WH now who never was an administrator, never made any impact as a senator, never held a real job, and only reads speeches that others write for him. That's qualifications for president?? Obviously not, since Zero has messed up America so badly. Looks like the MSM is being...should I dare say it...Racist!
“I didn’t see the speech”
I missed it too, but somebody said CSPAN was going to air it again at 7:00pm central time - can someone out there confirm, or correct that info, please?
A great speech. He speaks to the American people as one of them and speaks in everyday and understandable terms. He does not talk above the assembled crowd or down to them, but to each in the crowd as if he were talking to each individually. I want to see this man elected, for our country and the Constitution.
He mentioned in his speech that there were around 15,000 there.
Wow...didn’t know much about this guy, but after watching the debate clip...holy crap!!! Love him...
Very True!
Now's not the time to massage egos and try and cap a business career by running for the highest office in the land, with no previous elective office experience.
Enjoy it at your leisure. http://www.c-spanvideo.org/program/HermanCa
Or we can get a nominee who does book tours and gives ‘what people want to hear’ speeches. That will pretty much guarantee four more years of zero.

If the communist rag the AJC admitted that there was 10,000 I would safe to say that the was 50% more than that.
To the ‘Lamestream Media’ a President Herman Cain would be the end of the world!
Exactly! Because there is no legitimate reason, other than racism, that a white man would oppose a black man for POTUS. /s
Cains wife is so classy looking!!!!! She is a great replacement for MOOOchelle. The rest of the family is classy looking too!!!!!
Does that mean we get to be a team again? :)
