Man
I didn't think I would ever be excited by politics,again.
All politicians seem like cardboard people.I was so discouraged.
I love Herman. Just to listen to him talk inspires me.
He is a true leader.I am gonna try to work for his campaign.

This is the thing some people fail to see---human nature.If you read Animal Farm by Orwell, you see that Utopia/socialism will not work as long as human nature is there,which it always is,of course.

Lordy Ami Anne, , It`S not ABOUT SOCIALISM...

It`s about the lack of jobs, jobs creation and the big corps getting fat while moving their jobs over seas..

I don`t hear a single protester marching for welfare, free medical care or hand outs of any sort. They want a job Ami Anne , a D@** job to feed their families.

Is that too much to ask in the land of the Free ??

Orwellian lol. You`re comparing Cain and the lack of jobs in America to Animal Farm??

*edited to say some protesters did indeed ask for hand outs

I like Herman Cain too but....I despise his 999 plan.

Imagine, a 9% national sales tax ON TOP of a federal individual income tax.

National Sales Tax...the "Fair Tax"...YES; to REPLACE the income tax, corporation taxes, SS taxes, estate taxes, capital gains taxes and all other federal taxes.

As for Herman Cain's statement...I generally agree. Were it not for government interference in the private sector...bailouts, extremist regulation, crony Socialism and all the rest of the codswallop ladeled out by the feds; there would be regular cycles of the business cycles. The business cycle generally runs about 54 months from peak to peak or bottom to bottom...expansion through contraction and NO severe recessions or depressions.

Life is about choices. People will make mistakes along the way...but, people are supposed to learn from their mistakes and not repeat them endlessly...if they want to be wealthy or even self sufficient.

Indeed jwhop but those choices, when including others, can come to a negative end.

Cain is too over all or too linear thinking to be worth a saw buck.

Exactly. That alone says to me he`s too linear thinking .

He won`t be the next President and that`s my psychic prediction for the election

This isn`t a prediction but rather a "you go Ron" cheer... He won`t make it either and that`s a loss for America.

From Michael Falcone and Amy Bingham:

Values voters love Ron Paul.

The Texas congressman and presidential candidate who remains in the single digits in most national polls emerged as the choice of 37 percent of those who cast ballots at the annual Values Voter Summit in Washington, D.C.

Former Godfather’s Pizza CEO Herman Cain, who has been surging in national presidential primary polls, came in second with 23 percent of the vote, followed by Rick Santorum who garnered 16 percent. Rick Perry and Michele Bachmann tied for fourth — both with 8 percent.

herman cain, who fails to realize that despite his parents' working four jobs between them, it never made them rich. shame on them!!

and shame on him for not acknowledging that govt INTERFERENCE helped him get where he is today.

the conservatives adore him despite his very british idea of installing a major sales tax on top of income tax. sounds just like the VAT, which europeans love sooo much!!

"and shame on him for not acknowledging that govt INTERFERENCE helped him get where he is today."...katatonic

How so katatonic?

Are you alleging the government interfered with Cain's college admissions board to get him into college...over better qualified candidates?

Are you alleging the government compelled his various employers to hire Cain over more qualified applicants?

Now katatonic, I'm going to await your answer...because I know it's going to be really, really, really "good".

Oh, and let me head you off from one possible line of response. Are you going for the Civil Rights Act and the Voting Rights Act?

In case you don't know, it was REPUBLICANS who made both of those legislative acts possible. Neither one had a chance in hell of passage in the face of demoscat resistance. In fact, Republicans voted for both acts at a much higher rate than demoscats.

Still, neither of those so called new laws broke any new ground.

The 14th Amendment to the US Constitution..(1868)....already mandated that ALL citizens be treated equally before the laws of the United States.

i don't know where your brain is, jwhop. i didn't mention any political parties, nor affirmative action. your extrapolations are hilarious.

the fact is that herman's parents being black had to work 4 jobs between them so their kids could go to college. today in wall street college kids who took that expense on themselves are being ridiculed...for being lazy WHITE kids.

herman's parents didn't have a hope in h*ll of becoming rich. but the times changed, greatly helped by legislation, and herman got to and thru college. you yourself admit that civil rights legislation took place. who cares who put it through? segregation was legal in practice if not constitutional and you know it. discrimination was rampant and considered OKAY by many whites.

it wasn't until the 20s that a yellow skinned oriental was allowed citizenship. unconstitutional, maybe, but fact.

no, herman "i have no facts to back that up" cain would NOT be running for the nomination if it hadn't been for govt stepping in, and again, who cares who voted for it? it happened.

herman "i have no facts" cain is okay by rush limbaugh because HIS family came from slave stock, not uppity free africans like obama's father. this is a "REAL black man". fabulous, darling!

and as to republicans being the civil rights heros

it is true that in those days the south was still largely democratic, which would explain them trying to stymie civil rights progress BUT

In the 1946 US Congressional election, the Republicans regained control of both the US Senate and US House of Representatives, as a result of President Truman failing to handle the vast post-war labor strikes.[64] The Democrats were able to retake control of Congress in 1948, thanks to the widespread support Democratic President Harry Truman gained from rural communities after he pledged to repeal the Taft-Hartley Act;[65] with this victory, the conservative coalition was also defeated and the liberal Democrats regained control of Congress.[66] The week prior the 1950 mid-term elections, China had agreed to provide combat assistance to North Korea throughout the remainder of the Korean War[67] and the American public became more dissatisfied with Truman's war policy;[68] the Conservative Coalition (now led by Republican Senator Robert Taft)[69] regained control of the Senate.[70] This victory would give the Southern Democrats control of 13 of 19 Congressional committees[71] and Democratic Senator Ernest McFarland, a conservative who opposed Truman's Fair Deal,[72] became the Senate Majority Leader.[73] In 1952, Republican candidate, and decorated World War II general, Dwight Eisenhower was elected President by a landslide, as people thought Truman was too soft on Communism and unable to successfully end the Korean War.[74][75] With his victory, Eisenhower was able to successfully give the Republican Party control of both houses of Congress as well.[74] With Republican Eisenhower's election to the presidency in 1952, Republicans again won both houses. However, after the Democratic Party again won back control in the elections of 1954, it was the majority party in both houses of Congress for most of the next forty years.


http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_the_United_States_Congress

as to 90% tax rates being okay then but not now, do i need to remind you that they were instated during FDR's "reign" when the economy was NOT in great shape, helped pay for the infrastructure building that gave jobs to so many people and put money back into the government, and so on and so forth?

Herman Cain admits “some people will pay more” under 9-9-9


During a lengthy discussion with Gregory, Cain defended his plan from critics who say the plan will make lower income earners pay more.

Asked by Gregory who will pay more, Cain said, “The people who spend more money on new goods. The sales tax only applies to people who buy new goods, not used goods. That’s a big difference that doesn’t come out.”

Oh it comes out all right poorer folks only buy cheap used goods. Again, linear thinking .

"the SALES TAX" - which is only one third of the "9s".

a catchy phrase with admittedly "fuzzy math" to back it up.

i got news for herman, there is already sales tax on everything but the most basic purchases. nor will lowering the income tax arm of it mean the extra wealthy will spend more...they will have LESS reason to invest in their companys and more incentive to sock it away.

can you imagine a 9% tax on buying a home? (since owning a home is not a necessity)...wouldn't THAT be dandy!

I do not know how "Her"Man Cain will defend himself against the sexual harassment allegations. Many more allegations will come up once the ladies complete the joint press conference.

Herman needs to consult with Dominique Strass Kahn now
Imagine if Herman wins the Presidency and nominates DSK as the Federal Reserve Head.

GOP will become Groperment of the People

I think Mitt Romney is through once Jon Stewart and Jay Reno soon complete the last rites of Mr Cain's campaign.

In a devastating blow to businessman Herman Cain’s presidential ambitions, the American Mustache Institute…announced it was rescinding its official endorsement of the GOP field’s only mustachioed candidate.

I've kept my distance from the Cain sexual harassment scandal because I don't think he's a serious candidate and the feeding frenzy on these things disgusts me. (anthony weiner)

but who can resist yanked mustache support?
