If all of it is true, he should not have sought the presidency, if for no better reason than that he should have known that Republicans not only don't get press passes but that every fact is tortured, twisted and turned to make it seem more damning.
If it isn't true, he needed to do a better job of dealing with the false accusations. If his campaign is to survive, he must right now get started doing just that.
Either way, he just doesn’t seem as presidential as he used to.
Of course Cain knew he had a little stuff in his background, but when he initiated this run for president, I don’t think he, in his wildest dreams, thought he would be a contender.
If he hadn’t risen so much in the polls, people wouldn’t have looked at him and this would not have come out.
Not sure what his agenda was originally in running, but there are many advantages to doing it. (lecture tours, book sales, jobs, etc.)
