Cain represents “We The People” and carries that mantle against the political/media elite. The question is who will win and who should win? I would think the We The People should win rather than the establishment. Of course the most obvious and effective “We The People” candidate would be Sarah Palin if she jumps in which I think she will. I am not willing to accept less conservative establishment candidates that will not make the changes necessary. I would be happy to vote for Cain if he is the nominee or of course Sarah Palin because both of them will make the changes necessary to restore our nation and change the direction we are heading.
Cain would be an asset not a liability for the right nominee, even a poor one with Cain alongside can benefit.
So assuming someone else gets the nomination I would wish Cain to be accepted by the people for his trueness from the heart.
Same way I often hire my employees, the resume can get them the job but its the sincerity that guarantees they get my paycheck.
