I’ve supported this man from the beginning and would proudly support him again.

Cain/Carson 2016

[unixfox]

Ok, RINO.

[jaz.357]

WTF?

[xzins]

Any conservative is smart not to identify with the republicans. It makes much more sense to be “black conservatives” as a caucus available to listen to the GOP.

Christians would be wise to do the same thing.

[EEGator]

I want our version of Biden for VP. Carson is too smart. /s

[American Constitutionalist]

No, not RINO, basically, for a lot of people ? " I have not left the Republican Party, the Republican Party has left me and our Conservative principles " .
That's what Cain, I think, Is saying here.
The 2013 Republican Party ? is The Party of RINOS.

[Secret Agent Man]

i am christian first, conservative immediately next, and republican,last.

which is easiest to give up if necessary?

[ansel12]

As someone who has never belonged to any party, I think that encouraging blacks to see themselves as conservative independents, is just fine.

[American Constitutionalist]

Cain’s right, NO MORE RINOS ! let’s get back to our conservative princibles.

[BobL]

“Ok, RINO.”

Even Rush doesn’t consider himself a “Republican” as they are defined today. If he were, he’d sound a LOT MORE like Michael Medved, pushing McCain, Romney, and Amnesty.

The Republicans are a small bunch of rich politicians that take their money, in big bill-folds, from rich political interests. CONSERVATIVES, on the other hand, are rank-and-file people, trying to live out their lives and raise their families with minimal government interference - they are the Tea Party (something the Republican Establishment cannot understand if it slammed them in the face).

So Cain has a point...I just wish he had been more prepared for 2012, I LOVED HIM.

[chris37]

I agree with Cain.

[American Constitutionalist]

Being a Christian if one is already born again is set in stone and they are sealed until the day of redemption.
The 2nd one is not set in stone, but is ingrained in someone's character.
The 3rd ? it's a choice.

[Tennessee Nana]

Me too Herman...

[OneWingedShark]

I want our version of Biden for VP.

Mitt Romney? Oh, wait, he's our version of Obama.

[erlayman]

So is he going to tell people to vote for the conservative as well ? If there isn’t one and he’s setting in motion a prejudice against Republicans blacks are probably going to go back to the Democrats.

[EEGator]

LOL, I was thinking Ron Paul. He says crazy stuff, and will only get worse with age. Maybe Alex Jones, he’s bonkers and entertaining.

[EEGator]

Go back?

[Mastador1]

When people ask me what party I affiliate with I answer Conservative. I won’t tie myself blindly to Republican, I vote Issues and people, not Party.

[Skywise]

Black Libertarian?

Now THAT would be the ultimate in ironies... To have the Republic saved in spite of the Republicans by those they freed...
