""My career spans 38 years and I've worked for 26 different managers," said Frank Taylor, a recently retired Burger King financial executive whom Cain hired as his regional controller in 1983. "Herman was far and away the best I've worked for in terms of getting a team together, sharing a vision and accomplishing the goals. And nothing diverted him."
Cain also shared the wealth. When Burger King distributed $50,000 apiece to the regional vice presidents as reward for good performance in 1985, most of the regional bosses spent it on a trip to a posh resort for themselves and other managers and spouses. The enlisted troops got a dinner. Cain took everybody in his office, including administrative staff, on the same three-day reward cruise, Taylor recalled."

It's called leadership. It's called integrity. It's called character.

Which character was that? Goofy? Sneezy? Doc?
The character that didn't remember in the morning that he'd signed a settlement to hush up the harassment suits...
Here are the words of your leader...with all that integrity:
'I Don't Recall'.. 'I Don't Recollect'.. 'I Can't Honestly Remember'
I'm soooo impressed....

It's called leadership. It's called integrity. It's called character.
But if it's someone from the other party, it's called wealth redistribution. Double standard.

Wealth redistribution is when person A takes from person B and gives it to person C. Is that what Cain did?

He redistributed some of his wealth (and if the lawsuits are to be believed), attempted to distribute some of himself, too.
