CAIN/2012
I agree with it all but seems this could have been written by anyone.
Yep, looks like he’s ‘reassessing’ to me!
Yes! Honkies for Herman!
Looks pretty good to me.
What they are doing is disgusting!
The media, elites, etc think they can make this man an example.....they want to hang him in the square as a warning to all of us...
We will burn down the square before we allow this man to hang....
If we allow this evil to prevail, we have lost our American Spirit.
Who do you think wrote it?
Do you think Cain could pass a closed-book test based on the contents of this web page?
I think he could still recover. I just hope there’s enough time.
He never said the word ‘reasessing’. THAT was the media spin. HE said they would need to assess how to move forward. He said NOTHING about leaving the race.
michele bachmann and that twit, huntsman, need to crawl under rocks and stay there.
uh...reassessing. Geez.
Yeah - it’s basically low level analyst work of fairly obvious statements. I do think his timing is good and it indicates a desire to get on the offense instead of defense which is good. Other than that - yawn.
Of course it was spin... and look at how many freepers fell for it. Perry and Huntsman need to drop out before Bachmann. She can, at least, hold her own on major policy.
Thanks...great news!
It needs to appeal to the mass voter, so they have probably said just about enough for that purpose, at the right depth and length.
Of course, more detailed Asia-Pacific positions and strategies regarding these variuos friends (Japan, etc.), and adversaries (DPRK, etc.) here in the Region could be developed, and will probably be asked for by FP think tanks, foreign embassies (once he secures the nomination) and the media.
Yep, it shows good thought, graps, vetting and input. I have seen NO CLARITY to this level from ANY presidential campaign yet online or elsewhere, you watch them scramble now to imitate 'ol Herman. LOL! Man this guy has a lot up his sleeve, lovin' it.
Is he a foreign policy expert? No. But he is no flunkie either, despite what the media would have you believe. I’ve included in this list of links commentaries he wrote years ago as well.
FOREIGN POLICY
EDITORIAL: Cain’s foreign policy
http://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2011/nov/24/cains-foreign-policy/
“My foreign policy is an extension of the Reagan philosophy. My philosophy is peace through strength and clarity. We must clarify who our friends are; clarify who are enemies are; and stop giving money to our enemies. We need to tell the rest of the world who our friends are and that we stand with our friends... If you mess with Israel, you mess with the United States of America.” - Herman Cain

______________
From Herman Cain’s website:
The primary duty of the President of the United States is to protect our people. In fact, it is the principal duty of a limited federal government. They must ensure that our military and all of our security agencies are strong and capable.
Unfortunately, national security has become far too politicized with our elected officials using the issue as a means to polarize our country as the “war hawks” and the “peace doves.” In response, the safety and morale of our brave men and women in uniform are often at risk for political gain. The judgment of our military experts on the ground is often underutilized in exchange for political purposes. National security isn’t about politics. It’s about defending America.
While diplomacy is a critical tool in solving the complex security issues we face, it must never compromise military might. Because we are such a free and prosperous people, we are the envy of the world. Many regimes seek to destroy us because they are threatened by our ideals, and they resent our prosperity. We must acknowledge the real and present danger that terrorist nations and organizations pose to our country’s future.
Further, we must stand by our friends and we must not be fooled by our enemies. We should never be deceived by terrorists. They only have one objective, namely, to kill all of us. We must always remain vigilant in dealing with adversaries.
We must support our military with the best training, equipment, technology and infrastructure necessary to keep them in a position to win. We must also provide our men and women in uniform, our veterans and their families with the benefits they deserve for their tremendous sacrifice. These heroes have served us. We must never forget to serve them.
