Herman Cain unlike Mitt and Rick scares both the media and the elites of both parties and here’s why:
Herman Cain who truly was until recently a virtual unknown had faith enough in himself to decide to run for President of the United States on his own. There was no Media hype/pressure/build-up about a possible run, there was no urging by members of the Party, no words spoken into his ear by party players, elites, beltway boys or pundits, not even a word of encouragement from the Republican Party of his home state only faith in himself. Now after months of being treated as being a inconsequential candidate the curious sideshow of a conservative black Republican, he is now in the top tier along with people of great party pull, of men with experienced political machines and the dollars to power them. He did that on his own with no help from anyone accept by his own. Now think what a man with faith in himself like that could accomplish if given the chance.
Now many are saying Cain hasn’t a chance with his little formal organization and even less money.
Well let me remind all of you of what a recent movement did with no formal organization and even less money, The Tea Party.
The Tea Party manage with both those weakness to go on and seriously change the political landscape and in doing so caused the Leftist members of govenment, ellitist of both political parties and media types to quake in fear of them and their rath and all done with only a minimum of formal organization and on a ‘shoe string’ budget.
That’s what sucessful AMERICANS do, what they have always done! It’s what makes us WINNERS! They start out with what they have and they MAKE IT WORK! They make it work because what they don’t have in manpower or money they make-up with brains, sweat, blood and last but most important faith.
He could be complex, like Obama. When there’s a problem, his solution is to form a committee to study the issue, take a poll of his liberal buddies, and then create new government agencies to monitor it. He then creates a task force to monitor the agencies and new government agencies to monitor the task force that is monitoring the other agencies. Then we need a czar to monitor them all. That’s how you don’t get things done in Washington. It would also never work in private industry.
There is nothing more simple than the truth. Theories, ideologies, analyses, imaginations and grand schemes tend to be a whole lot more complicated. Truth is just what it is. Very simple.
Don’t forget the meme: Republicans are either evil or stupid.
Nixon....evil
Ford......stupid
Reagan.....stupid
GHW Bush....evil
Quayle.....stupid
GW Bush.....stupid
Cheney......evil
Try it! It always works! They are trying to paint Cain as stupid?
Two words: ballistics analysis. :)
The Washington Post use to say that about Ronald Reagan too.
They hate conservatives.
They may also be biased against his accent, as in, thinking all Southerners are stupid.
This has been a staple of left/dem propaganda for decades. Republicans are always stupid, even when they have advanced degrees, and Democrats are the smartest people ever, even if they can’t do math or think there are 57 states.
It must work- it’s a constant drumbeat.
I suspect Herman Cain is as smart or smarter than anyone running on the Republican side, and he is a good man. That is more than can be said for Obama. He isn’t in Herman’s league intellectually, and he will never know what it is to have Herman’s good character. It’s time we throw out the trash, and get a real man like Herman Cain in the White House.
Wow, we’ve got journalism majors calling a man with an undergraduate degree in math and a master’s in computer science “simple”.
Journalism is so hard, as we all know.
