Archer please watch his videos or read up on him before you make a statement that is a typical liberal talking point. 'They have no idea what to do'? That is such BS. He has a whole list of things he is going to do, and things he is going to change. But you guys just see what the liberal medis tells you.
And you are calling an extremely successful business man a blowhard but not Obama? Obama is the biggest blowhard with the biggest unsupported ego and no accomplishments that we have ever elected. So calling Cain a blowhard is like the pot calling the kettle black! (oops is that racist?)
don't go getting your tighty whiteys in a wad....I did watch the video....and I have read up on him. And the more I see of him the less I like.
You get all bent out of shape because Obama had a lot of big ideas without a means to accomplish them, but now get all excited because a conservative has a lot of big ideas without a means of accomplishing them. I'll call both the pot AND the kettle black if that is the way I see it. I don't like the man's politics, pure and simple. And that is NOT from lack of knowledge about him.....that comes from what he says and what he believes. So please, before you accuse me of not knowing anything about the man, ask me.

http://motherjones.com/politics/2011/05 ... wsuit-2012 Herman Cain's Enron-esque Disaster
The story the GOP presidential candidate won't tell you about his years in corporate America.
— By Andy Kroll
May. 23, 2011
On Tuesday, GOP presidential candidate Herman Cain dropped by Glenn Beck's radio program to argue that his previous promise to not appoint any Muslims to his Cabinet had been "misconstrued."
Cain's position now is that only radical Muslims would be prohibited from serving in his administration. That sounds reasonable. Except he
told Laura Ingraham
in April that he's never met a Muslim who didn't fit his definition of a radical—and in the same interview, alleged that Rep. Keith Ellison (D–Minn.), who's Muslim, has pledged his loyalty to Allah, not the Constitution. But even if Cain's original statement, and subsequent defenses of it, were misconstrued, he still hasn't adequately explained the rest of what he
told Think Progress
back in April.
"Now, more than ever, the illusions of division threaten our very existence. We all know the truth: more connects us than separates us. But in times of crisis the wise build bridges, while the foolish build barriers. We must find a way to look after one another as if we were one single tribe.” -King T'Challa, Black Panther
The truth is incontrovertible. Malice may attack it. ignorance may deride it, but in the end, there it is. ~Winston Churchill
He sounds too moderate to be a real contender with the Tea Party.....plus he actually talked to Obama, that alone will lose him points. I have to agree with some of the other posters that being LDS also will hurt him, a lot of voters are not comfortable with the Mormon religion. Still, I would think he might appeal to the independent voters more than Cain would.
Well archer, it seems that nobody on the left cared much that Obama prays to an imaginary being or that he sat in a racist church for 20 years so how would being a Mormon be so bad?
The left is angry because they are now being judged by the content of their character and not by the color of their skin.
I am sure that if he gains traction, we will find out that in order to do the pizza turn around he had to me mean, he stepped on a crack and broke his mothers back and that he is not authentically black.

CB.....I didn't say being a mormon was so bad......(why do you have to read stuff into my posts?) I said it may effect some voters. Don't you think there were people on the left or independents who didn't vote for Obama because of his church.....or his color? There are people who distrust the LDS church, it came out in the last presidential primary with Romney......it's neither bad nor good, just an issue that may effect how people vote.
The Economist ran a piece about Huntsman this week and they portrayed him as a complicated person who doesn't necessarily walk in lock step with the ultra right wing.

rofllol :rofl You are comparing Obama and Cain? ROFLMAO!! Either you really don't know anything about him or you just didn't comprehend what you read.
Herman Cain (born December 13, 1945) is an American businessman, columnist, and radio host from Georgia. He is best known as the former chairman and CEO of Godfather's Pizza. He is a former deputy chairman (1992–94) and chairman (1995–96) of the civilian board of directors to the Federal Reserve Bank of Kansas City. Before his business and economics career he worked as a mathematician in ballistics for the United States Navy.
Obama was a community organizor. No business experience, which shows greatly in how he has helped to destroy the greatest economy on earth in less than 3 years. No military esperience. Cain worked as a mathematician in ballistics for the United States Navy and Obama can keep his golf score. Cain is a former deputy chairman (1992–94) and chairman (1995–96) of the civilian board of directors to the Federal Reserve Bank of Kansas City. Obama didn't even know what that was till he ran for office, and he still thinks it is just a place where he can go and keep getting money when he blows through everything else he was already given. Comparing those two is like comparing a college professor with a freshman in high school. And he has great ideas that many have said would work and agree with. You really haven't read up on him. Cain was the Chairman and CEO of a huge sucesful company where he had to ballance a budget and work within it to make it successful. Obama was a community organizor who learned how to ask for money from people to hand it out to others without having to worry about balancing a budget. Hmmm......seems that is still all he knows how to do. Experience counts!!! America screwed up BIG with the whole HOPE and CHANGE BS from an inexperienced rookie.
