Nope, it's nice...but not all that big....and that stereotype is usually reserved the sistas.
A
big boody?
Speaking of creepy.....I found a new Avatar.
Regardless, it is still a good plan.
Irrelevant. Question is, are they in business and profitable?
Question is, what does being able to sell crappy pizza have to do w/being Pres?

It has a lot to do with understanding basic economics—with understanding how money comes into a business, and how that business must be wise in spending that money in order to remain viable.
I would have to say that anyone—such as Mr. Cain—who has the experience of successfully running a business, is way ahead of Mr. Obama as far as this kind of vital understanding of how to manage this nation's financial affairs.
Let Mr. Obama try running Godfather's Pizza the way he has run this nation, and Godfather's will be bankrupt and out of business before you know it.
I thought the republicans are against affirmative action. I guess not.
So you think that the only reason to support a black man for president is because they are required to by statute?
That's racist, homey.
Thats the only reason some republicans are supporting him. Not all. Some just like that his mitt romney. White guilt.
Which Republicans are doing that? Name one. Or is it more likely that you're just making an unsubstantiated claim of racism where there is none?
Nail firmly hit.
No white guilt here. It's too funny. If you are black and a conservative you are an Uncle Tom. If you are white and conservative you are racist. You can't win with morons who have blinders on.
I agree that it's a BS charge -- just like it was when conservatives said the same thing about people who voted for Obama.
Does no one else see the problem with a statement like "I don't want 'the blacks' to treat me like I'm racist." The blacks? Really? Because all black people are a monolithic group who all think the same way. It's when you say things like that that people get the genuine impression that you ARE racist. You view 12-13% of the population as a simple input-output machine that all thinks and acts the same way, and you condescendingly consider that way unreasonable. That view... that's racism.
This is a very common mistake in our age. What you describe is NOT racist. The word racist has a definitive meaning. Being guilty of applying stereotypes or over-generalizations might be tacky or shortsighted but it is not racist.
You are awfully judgmental to label someone racist based on a generalization made on an internet forum. You are also applying your standards to another person who may not agree with them.
Some food for thought...
rac·ism
noun /ˈrāˌsizəm/
The belief that all members of each race possess characteristics or abilities specific to that race, esp. so as to distinguish it as inferior or superior to another race or races
Prejudice, discrimination, or antagonism directed against someone of a different race based on such a belief
If Herman Cain ran against Obama do you think the blacks would be able to call white people racist for voting republican like they did in the last election?
Also do you think he can steal some of the black vote from Obama?
Yes this is true, but this is consistent with the more progressive movement. I mean just because they did it with Obama, that somehow justifies the last 30 years of liberals doing it?
Come up with a better argument than "well they did it to!" lol.

I have conservative friends that supported him from early on before he came out with any details on his policies. I ask them to tell me how he is different from the other candidates and they just told me to go to his website. To me he is just like the other generic neocons on the stage. Cut taxes for the wealthy, bail out banks. more wars. There is only one difference. But i won't say it. You know what it is.
