Damn right they are scared of him, and with good reason. He is the ANTI OBAMA. If the two ever debated, Obama would end up looking like a complete moron. Of course, the MSM would spin that. Flopping Aces, please keep the Cain articles coming. The more people know of this guy, the more they will like him. He embodies the Tea Party and all that we represent. Thank you for your articles. Stacy McCain likes him as well.

I watched Herman Cain on O’Riley after his Sunday appearance with Cris Wallace. He admitted He didn’t know about the Palestinian right to return to lands in Israel formerly occupied by their ancestors. He also quickly understood the implications. Herman Cain quickly showed he ability to understand problems and find solutions that can work for the good of the country. My impression of him is that he understands that for the US to return to prosperity, the people must be allowed to succeed instead of being taken care of by the government. The liberals (progressives) cannot conceive of individuals being successful without the government intervention or without depriving someone else of their livelihood.
Skook, it is not that Time is purposely ignoring Herman Cain. The left cannot even see him through their socialistic (red) colored glasses.

Herman Cain is the real deal. He is confident, intelligent and knows how to LEAD!

SKOOKUM, FANTASTIC POST AS USUAL, AND CAIN WONT EVEN BLINK WITH TIMES BLABBERING.
HE IS THE HERMANATER, AND NOTHING WILL STOP HIM,
he is walking like a GIANT mountain detach from it’s base toward AMERICA TO CRUSH HIS OPPONANT WITH HIS LOVE OF HIS COUNTRY AND DETERMINATION TO REPAIR THE BROKEN PIECES, WITH A SUPER CREW THAT WILL SERVE THE PEOPLE OF AMERICA ABOVE THE WHOLE WORLD,
WHERE IT BELONG,
no shady dealing with the HATERS OF AMERICA FOR CAIN,
HE is a straight RIGHTEOUS PERSON YOU CAN SEE THE GLOW COMING FROM HIS SOUL FILL WITH THE LIGHT, and has the gutts we all need to fix a PROBLEM THAT IS THE REVERSAL OF THE DESTRUCTION OF THIS BEAUTIFULL AMERICA THE JEWEL OF THE WORLD TO BE PRESERVED FOREVER BY THE RIGHT PEOPLE DETERMINE TO DO WHATEVER IT TAKE,
GOD PROTECT AMERICA AND LET IT BE KNOWN TO ALL FROM SEA TO SEA TO THE NORTH AND THE SOUTH, LET STAND FOR THE RIGHT MAN TO TO THE JOB WITHOUT ANY DEVIATION,

Wish he would get Mr.West as a running mate.

wildbill, hi, they would rock AMERICANS STIMULATE ALL WITH HOPE, ON ALL THE UNITED STATES TOGETHER,
INTO A NEW MESSAGE OF POSITIVE THINKING AND WORKING FOR AMERICA WOULD BRING BACK THE COMPANIES TO BE SAFE AND BELEIVE IN THIS WORTHY COUNTRY FIRST HAND ABOVE ANY OTHER, THAT IS WHAT IS NEEDED HERE ,A CONFIDENCE BUILDER,
NOT A POOR SOMEONE UNABLE TO SERVE THE WISH OF THE PEOPLE AND VERY GOOD IN HELPING THE HATERS OF AMERICA WITH THE PEOPLE’S MONEY NOT HIS OWN.

Skookum,I know I was dreaming,forgive me.at my age I can do that.

@ilovebeeswarzone:
Well said; I could not have expressed it better! My money is going to be on the ‘Hermanator’ [great nickname]

@wildbill: FWIW department –Cain has/had a link on his website for encouragement emails. I suggested that he, along with with West for a VP candidate would be a ‘kick-a$$’ winner!

Skookum You are really striking cords to music I love to hear! But since you are not an anti-american rapper I doubt seriously if Obamination will invite you to the white house!
What I would really like to see for the sake of this country is Mr. Herman Cain, and Lt.Col Allen West to get together and be on the same ticket. The combination of these two men could very well bring back the United States to what it should be! They would be a mixture that could produce the atmosphere of “Not sleeping with the liberals and either you get with the program or get out!” We are at WAR!!!!! and our enemies are within our borders….Do not think otherwise!!!! I would load up and follow Lt. Col. Allen West to fight any enemy on any front, and I feel certain if we were holding the line Mr. Herman Cain would see to it that the supplies kept rolling to do the job done! If some how these two men could be coupled together and not held back by the “lack of Balls and Back Bone” of the Republican party, the dynamics could be exactly what America needs! If we let this neighborhood organizer continue the whole country will be reflective of Detroit and Dearborne, Michigan! Mr. Herman Cain and Lt. Col. Allen West have what it takes to be real leaders! Something we have not had since the Gipper! Uhhhh Rahhhh! Semper Fi !!!

@RudeCrudeAndSociallyUnacceptable: Thank you Sir!!! My sentiments exactly!!!!! In fact I think every politician and public servant should have to swear publicly to support the Constitution and the Bill of rights and if they are caught doing otherwise then just prosecute their sorry A_ _ es and deport them! Does any normal person eat from a plate of food with maggots in it? So why should we allow an Government who is bent on self destruction to exist! Of the people and for the people ,and by the people means we set the rules! Not a bunch of socialistic God hating anti-constitutional idiots! If you do not believe that I have more than ten thousand reasons why I am right and everyone the has a primer at the base! Uhhh Rahhhh! Semper Fi!!!!! Just a note for you liberals my magazine is longer than my patience for you!

Cain is the lead story on NYTIMES.COM right now. Kind of inconvenient to your theory.

@J V Hoffman: AMEN, Brother!

Tom, no inconvenience that will surprise CAIN, and your link is not red, so it doesn’t work,

Thanks TOM for pointing me to the NYT article.
The ‘Dark Horse’ cometh! ….”OOAH!” [Run, ‘SHAMUS’, Run..]

I appreciate that Herman Cain is bucking the traditional, establishment model.
There was a time a candidate had to have held office, had to have great name recognition, had to have loads of money —- all before he entered the race!
Not anymore!
Herman Cain has the highest enthusiasm rating of all the Republicans now in the field.
All the money and name recognition will come.
He has four books available on line and at some bookstores (remember bookstores?).
They are:

Leadership Is Common Sense

CEO of Self: You Are in Charge

Speak as a Leader

&

They Think You’re Stupid: Why Democrats Lost Your Vote and What Republicans Must Do to Keep It

Check them out.

Herman cain is a fool.

And anyone who thinks he is common sense, or the answer to our problems is as well.

All of his answers on the first debate went along the lines of “Well, if it happens, we’ll make a plan, than we’ll do that plan.”

Not only that, but he used to be the chair of the KC federal reserve.. Y’all really want someone who had a DIRECT hand in the economic collapse in the whitehouse?

Kyle, you just can admit that you’re an obamist,
your shit don’t pass here, keep it for you and your alike

@Kyle: Oh okay Kyle! That really makes sense! So you would go to your janitor to get a meal cooked for you, go to your garage mechanic to get your teeth worked on, and the carpenter to get a haircut! Yeah I am beginning to understand…..oh so that is why you voted for Obama! Same logic! Tell me who could work better to fix something than one who has good sense and had to work under it? Now! Now! Who is the party going to tell you to bark at next? Putting Obama in office made about as much sense as putting a queer in charge of consultation of heterosexual marriages! You can’t fix something you don’t know a damn thing about…..so he is the man for the job!!!! Go Hermanator!!!

Time magazine may not believe there are black conservatives are out there but much to their dismay they will sooner or later find out how wrong they are.

There is a group of conservative black men in the Detroit area that host two radio shows on Saturday. Both shows air under the name of Joshua’s Trail and are hosted by Dr. Levon Yuille. The Saturday morning show is co-hosted by Charles McCollough and Milt Harris while the Saturday afternoon show is co-hosted by Del Marsh and Phil Stargell.

The first show is on from 8:00 – 10:00 A.M. on WDTK and the second is on from 4:00 – 6:00 P.M. on WAAM. Both are streaming stations and gather quite a diverse group of both listeners and callers from not only the Detroit area but from around the country.

Both shows bring a breath of fresh air to the airwaves and a sense of hope that the black community is slowly but surely awakening to the truth about conservatism.

Kyle,
If ignorance is bliss, then you must be inecstasyy. So you say that we shouldn’t want Herman Cain because he had a hand in the economic collapse. Care to tell us why Cain’sinvolvementt is more significantthanm Pelosi,Reid’ssGeitner’ss, Obama’s or Biden’s? HowabouttDoddd or Frank or,,, hell, pick any Democrat leader.

The KC federal reserve is not where the financial collapse originated. The collapse originated with the 2006 election results and Democrcontrololl of the House and Senate. And it accelerated with the Dem’s in control of everything from the 2008 elections.

Great Lakes STATE, HI, THANK YOU, FOR THIS INFO, I hope they visit our FLOPPING ACES,
SOMETIMES; It would be very interesting to receive their infos and observations, on here to
the 2012 election; WHERE CONSERVATIVES must unite for that special day where AMERICA WILL SPEAK
LOUD AND CLEAR.
BEST TO YOU.

@Kyle:
U-B-Da Fool… Funny how you Liberal Obamaholics stick out like sore thumbs. Herman Cain and Alan West would be your worst nightmare. [read: ‘epitaph] Put your tinfoil hat back on and get back in the ranks to await your next marching orders!

Kyle when you become a bleeding heart liberal your heart becomes like a sieve and then your heart can not pump up to your brain! This is why liberals lose touch with reality due to the lack of proper blood flow. This causes an delusional affect that causes them to confuse what the chairman/party leader says to be mingled with reality! Only to be placed in the position it is easier to disappear than to face reality!
Tell me what quality as a human being or as a professional, or anything that justifies you voting for Obama? Oh hell where did he go? Who is the character who voted against many of our commentaries? Only one…hmmmm wonder who would do that don’t they know hit and run is against the law?

@Kyle: You said:

Not only that, but he used to be the chair of the KC federal reserve.. Y’all really want someone who had a DIRECT hand in the economic collapse in the whitehouse?

I was not aware that the chairman of a Federal Reserve Bank had THAT much influence. You don’t think that the CRA of 1977 had anything to do with it? Fannie or Freddie?

Please illuminate us with your inside information.

You know Skook? Cain might just be the person we have been waiting for all these years. He has all the positive attributes that have been mentioned, and yes he is black, but more importantly a successful black man who has lived the American dream. That just may be his ace in the hole, to winning over more blacks to vote for the GOP ticket. I would hope that as a black man that the resistance that he will surly run up against in the black community will not be half as bad as if he were a white man/woman. And yes there are those blacks who will undoubtedly call him a oreo/uncle Tom”. But I really think that he can do it. There are many blacks out there who are dissatisfied with Obi, but if given another black alternative to Obi I think that they would be more inclined to vote for Cain, than more of the same. Just look at how many conservatives who had reservations to cast their votes for Bush. Yet the majority of them did, and to quote a much used phrase at that time, “I had to hold my nose but I did vote for him.” The same could hold true for the black community. I can’t wait to watch the debates! if cain handles himself like he did in the first one, he will kick major butt! And I would bet good money that Cain did not sit on his laurels after that last debate. He probably started examining his weaknesses, and strengths and improving on them for the next showdown.

Gary G. Swenchonis, hi,
also he will pick the RIGHT CREW to be covering the expertise he need to decide
his many PLANS THAT WILL SURFACE TO FIX THE FOREIGN PROBLEMS OR ANY OTHER THAT NEED TO BE FIX YESTERDAY OR TOMORROW OR LONG RANGE, because he has experienced it in busyness deals,
being a success element for a company,
and they will have to know their stuff or they wont pass go with him.

Where is Allen Keyes????????????????????

wildbill, don’t stop dreaming, the future is made with dreams that cross the minds and took shape
into realty,
bye

If Cain is a non-politician and can stay a non-politician after getting in office, I am for him.

SMORGASBORD, HI, CAIN THE HERMANATOR,
IS A BUSYNESS MAN THAT KNOWS HIS BUSYNESS and can get politicien to deal with expertise and report to him for making plan in needed issues, i like the idea of him making plans that is good for the COUNTRY TO KEEP THE BOOK BALANCE,
BYE

Dink Newcomb, I ran in to your comment, hope you get back here at FA,
we have interesting POSTS for you to comment,
best to you.

@ilovebeeswarzone: #34

I like the fact that Cain is for The Fair Tax. If anyone doesn’t know what the Fair Tax is, it is a system where all Federal Taxes are eliminated and put in a Federeal sales tax. You pay your Federal taxes when you buy something. Even the illegals will be adding to the Federal treasury with this system. Every economist who studied the system agreed that it would creat jobs. Everyone who has read The Fair Tax book said they are for it. I recommend that EVREYONE read it.

SMORGASBORD, YES THAT IS FAIR FOR EVERY ONE, THAT’S WHAT IT IS HERE, 13 PER CENT
ON EVERY THING BOUGHT

TomBoy Where indeed is Allen Keys? I always like him, and he was articulate and intelligent. But have not heard about him in at least 4 to 5 years.

@ilovebeeswarzone: I agree Bees! Lets just hope he gets that far!

Now Tom, as a liberal/progressive, what is your honest objective opinion of Herman Cain?

Skookum, first let me say it’s flattering and unprecedented for me to receive an open invitation to express my opinion and I’m flattered by your invitation to do so. I might however take a moment to question your labeling of me as a “liberal/progressive”. I wonder perhaps if your own unapologetic residence upon the ideological frontier has conditioned you to a hardy skepticism toward those who reside in comfort closer to the equator, and perhaps if you lump all us fair-weather folk together, without considering how Buffalo is pretty far south of the north pole without being tropic. I’m not running away from the “liberal” tag, mind you; merely stating that in a forum where that word is pejorative and conjures a host of stereotypes that don’t necessarily conform with my (I like to think) more nuanced views, it’s not helpful to attach labels cavalierly. Of course, perhaps this is just ironic proof of the Robert Frost’s quote, “a liberal is a man too broadminded to take his own side in a quarrel”. Moving on.

To your question, I don’t know exactly what I think of Herman Cain because I too am still learning about him. On the plus ledge side, his story of his rise from modest means is superficially appealing and he seems like a man of substance. On the minus, his positions don’t align with mine in many areas (which is no different than any other GOP candidate). I like that he seems genuinely intelligent. I don’t like that he seems entirely focused on, and qualified for, domestic economic challenges and doesn’t seem up to speed on foreign affairs. There are those who believe it’s best to root for the worst candidate to win in the other parties primary because the general public will likely reject that candidate and your guy/gal will have a better chance of winning. I’ve always been wary of that proposition because if something goes horribly wrong, you could just end up with the worst possible outcome of all, for example, a dangerously unqualified intellectual lightweight, perhaps someone who thinks Paul Revere started the NRA. As an American who realizes that either a Democrat or a Republican could win, I have a fiduciary interest in seeing both parties put forth the best possibly candidates. I will continue to learn about Mr. Cain in that spirit and look forward to your continued coverage of his candidacy.

Digging deeper, if you would indulge my untrained curiosity, I’d be most grateful to read your opinions regarding the provenance of, the utility of, and your personal tolerance for, the ideological distribution of humanity. For arguments sake, let’s say it’s a bell curve, left to right, with the most zealous at each end and the moderate and disinterested clustered in the middle; is this, on the aggregate, a natural state of affairs? Is it closer to an ingrained state in a person, or more like what baseball team you happen to like, a matter of circumstance or inheritance? Are there natural liberals born into conservative households and vice-versa, and does the distribution remain, on the whole, stable? Is this distribution overall beneficial and perhaps responsibly for humanities rapid development, or would one side “winning” over the other, be more so? Finally, if it were possible without harming anyone physically, to wish away all liberalism, would you so?

Well Tom you are either a Buffalo or wallowing in Buffalo sh_t ! The deeper you dig into somethings the more you dig the further you get from daylight! Believe me if you know where to find the eggs you don’t have to dig in the manure outside the chicken house to find good eggs! Tom you don’t have to dig, just take the obvious! If Herman Cain sides with Lt.Col. Allen West no liberal stands a chance! All of use Jews will support him and all the Blacks will have to deny themselves to vote for anyone else! Unless Obama can make it were convicts can vote for him he don’t stand a chance! I mean after all most of those who voted for him have at least two or three family members who are convicts! Suck it up trooper!!!

Well said Mr.Hoffman.

@J V Hoffman:

You almost got me. I almost reacted to that like it was real. That is the best impersonation of an idiot I’ve seen in some time! Kudos to you, sir and your superior powers of mimicry!

@Tom: Just to let you know most of my life I have eaten people like you alive and still had room for eggs an grits! Nothing makes you feel better than one communist bastard or terrorist being pulled into your interrogation room and pissing in his pants for fear of facing reality! The “almost” you felt was most likely what little humanity you have left pulling at your conscience! Don’t sear it and it may pull you out of the misery you suffer! If you have the Ability to do so and that is a question! How did the Government of the United States function without of all of this until the turn of the 1900’s? Now just since the 1960’s we have gone from being the greatest nation in the world to one who not only is dependent upon all others but also serves the causes of other more than its own people? Let me give you a clue….It is called L.I.B.E.R.A.L.S. ..in essence Communist and socialist in camouflage! I will tell you one thing! I have been stabbed, shot three times, fragmented, bayoneted, and was a P.O.W. , but none of that hurt as much as seeing the traitors of everything this country stands for being ripped apart and distributed to those who hate it and every thing it stands for! What have you sacrificed for Liberalism? It ain’t free you know it will cost you and you will remember my words when it does!

@J V Hoffman:

My apologies, Sir. I had no idea you were serious. After all, you stated, “I mean after all most of those who voted for him have at least two or three family members who are convicts!”. Considering 66M people voted for Obama and there are 2M incarcerated, I assumed this was your attempt at humorously impersonating a race-baiting ass. I guess I’m the ass for assuming.

@Tom: No need for apology Tom. And I may use humor, but I am dead serious! Incarceration is one issue, but how many are felons? You have to admit many times more! Our nation is falling apart…people just do not realize it yet! If you think I am just hard on liberals then read my comments on other issues… I am equally hard on the Republicans…they are sleeping in the same bed without changing the sheets! We need to return to what our forefathers established, otherwise we will lose it!

@J V Hoffman:

I respect your opinion, I respect your service. But you cross the line when you attempt to intimidate me with your tales of what you do to people in the “interrogation room”. Sadism, particularly directed at me in a threatening manner, isn’t what I’m here for. Perhaps your concept of what ‘this county stands for’ and mine really are incompatible, but that’s something that won’t be explored, at least not directly. So best of luck to you, but I won’t be responding to anything else you have to say.

@Tom: The only thing you have been threaten with is reality! Don’t even bother to flag your self righteousness to me! How many of your friends did you see come back in parts cut up in pieces? How many of your buddies did you hold in your arms as they took their last breaths for liberalism! Yes! “incompatible” Yes this is proper word, because you can not identify with something that you have never given anything for or paid the price for! It is not” intimidation” it is reality! I guess you agree with the same thoughts of those who used to cut off the arms of little children of whom we gave vaccines! Just like those who destroy the very country we have given all that we have to preserve for their “AGENDA” and faithfulness to the United Nations and not the United States! Continue on the road you are on, and you will meet up with reality one day soon! However I can assure you you will not have enough change in your pocket to pay the price!

tom, you wont be responding because you have nothing to say after this,
so just “THINK” instead of doing anything else, because there is a lot more to learn
IN JV HOFFMAN’S WORDS than anything you ever learn before,
and anything you will ever learn.

@ilovebeeswarzone: #36

I helped support your country while I visited my son in Winnipeg.

Somebody should mention Thomas Sowell and Walter E. Williams.
