SOLID, REAL WORLD CREDS. Cain has done 10x more in his life than Patrice Lumumba Obongo EVER did--even as President for three years that have sucked. This man Herman Cain will clean the floor with the Kenyan. Convinced. Solid background. Great delivery. Incredible stamina. Fire in the belly. Likability factor him. Humor good. This country needs an "upper", somebody who will help us as a nation mentally get out this horribly Obama-produced and fermented negative, downward spiral of American National Decline.

Herman Cain, and his team in DC dismantling D.C. govt largess, can be the answer to that.

Herman Cain is a true American success story. He understands how freedom works. He understands how capitalism works. He also understands how our social fabric works and how families and individuals are what makes this nation prosper.
