would you vote for Herman Cain if he made it to the presidential election?
 
NO. He was not born in Kenya. That rules him out in my opinion.
 
Yes, I absolutely will vote for this wonderful man.
He is exactly what this country needs.
I love him on foreign policy, the economy, immigration and
this
 
Nope, I've heard him on the radio quite a bit, and I disagree with him on about everything.
 
What is his background? What has he done with his political career? And has she shown his birth certificate yet?

I don't blame you. He makes no secret about how he feels about liberals and doesn't agree with them on anything. No one can call him a RINO, that's for sure.

Well, he doesn't seem to be leading in any polls...

To my knowledge he doesn't have a political career, he is a talk radio host.

You know for all the bitching I hear Conservatives do about the Liberal elite and our hollywood friends, they sure do like to jerk off right-wing celebrities a lot. Think about. Sarah Palin, Ronald Reagan, Rush Limbaugh, Ann Coulter, Denis Miller. The list goes on and on. It's the like the right wing doesn't have an intellectual leader to save it's life.

He's right about coal, natural gas, and our dependence on foreign oil being a security issue. I'm not sure where he stands on other issues.

So, what would he do about it were he to be elected president?

What experience does he have?

Herman Cain - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

He ran for Senate, but he didn't win the GOP primary and that's as far as his political career goes. He is more of a journalist than anything.

He has never served in a public office... He ran for a Senate seat, but lost in the primary. He has less experience than Obama... :lol:

C'maaan. That doesn't matter now! Know why? Cause Obama was black and his citizenship was in question. Oh and he was a community activist. Did I mention community activist?

He's a nice guy, good speaker.

He's run large businesses before as a CEO.

Less experience than Obama had when he took office? If he was CEO of a pizza chain, he must have had to learn to make executive decisions, manage a budget, and meet a payroll. Yes, it sounds like his resume is a little thin, but not as thin as the current POTUS' was.
 

I don't think it's thin at all. Do we really want another career politician?

From your wiki link. This is how he lost the run for senate. nothing to be embarrassed about.
2004 U.S. Senate candidacyIn 2004, Cain ran for the U.S. Senate in Georgia, pursuing the seat that came open with the retirement of Democrat Zell Miller. Cain sought the Republican nomination, facing congressmen Johnny Isakson and Mac Collins in the primary. Cain and Collins both hoped to deny Isakson a majority on primary day in order to force him into a runoff.[citation needed] Collins tried to paint Cain as a moderate,[8] citing Cain's support for affirmative action programs, while Cain argued that he was a conservative, noting that he opposed the legality of abortion even in cases of rape and incest.[9] Cain finished second in the primary with 26.2% of the vote, ahead of Collins, who won 20.6%, but because Isakson won 53.2% of the vote, Isakson was able to avoid a runoff.[10]
 
I'm not familiar with his platform

and for those who like him, could you explain why you believe him to be better than other GOP candidates?

If there were anything that would make him a better choice, it's that he isn't as politically connected, as the rest of the candidates in the running.
