Yes, that is why I specifically mentioned that in my comment. My point is that you are dismissing Perry for that, but you have no way of knowing if Cain would do anything like that, because he has NEVER been in a position of power where he could do that.
You could assume that he would be exactly what you want him to be, because you can assume anything you want -- there is zero record to counter you.
I am convinced, looking at the full decade of decisions by Rick Perry, that the Gardasil thing was an aberration, not the norm, and I have absolutely no fear of him doing any thing like that as President. I can make the judgement because I can see the thousands of decisions he made, and the few that I disagree with.
With Cain, I can see the dozens of things he has said, and look at times when he has contradicted himself or changed his position, but I can't see how he would translate what he says into specific actions.
What I hear, I like (except when he is telling my Romney is a good choice, or that Rick Perry is insensitive to blacks). How he acts, I can't know. So it's a crap shoot.
I used to spend my Saturday afternoon’s listening to Herman Cain on the radio. He was on a station that had internet access so I could catch his show even though I live several states away in the north and he is was broadcast in Georgia. The man is brilliant.
I will be so very proud to vote for Herman Cain. If he makes it to be our candidate.
