How does the mortgage deduction fit into 9-9-9 (if it does)?

You need reciprocity between states so if you travel...you don’t have to leave your gun at home.

It’s a flat tax. 9% coprporate, 9% personal income, and 9% sales. Everybody pays the same. No loop holes, no deductions.

Was wondering what his position on Global Warming was, and according to what I found on a quick search, he believes that Global Warming is not a crisis and is just a tax scheme. Is that correct ?

The first time I heard Herman sub for Neal Boortz, I thought, “This guy needs to run for President!” I was thrilled when he tossed his hat into the ring.

I’ve vetted the other candidates and for one reason or another, none of them do it for me.

As time goes on, I notice more and more folks are starting to take notice of Herman and want to learn more about him. After winning the FL straw poll, he’s getting even more attention. Don’cha know the MSM, who have gone out of their way to ignore him, are just hatin’ having to talk about him the past couple of days? hee!!

Thanks for posting this to give folks a little more to go on.

He answered it straight forward on his Mark Levin Interview.

Herman Cain on Global Warming:

Mark Levin: And what about man-made global warming? Do you think something should be quote unquote done about that?

Herman Cain: Man-made global warming is poppycock. I hope I can say that on your show.

Mark Levin: You know you can.

Herman Cain: In other words, I don’t believe in it.

Look, if people look at the real data, the climate had varied ever since we’ve known that the planet is here. And we know that those scientists who tried to concoct the science to say we had a hockey stick global warming and they were busted because they manipulated the data.

Actually I don’t see Cain calling for in state tuition and calling those against it “heartless” but other than that, there isn’t too much difference.

Fine with me.

What I loose in deduction is offset by accounting charges.

Although I'm with Sarah all the way, I'm not hostile to Cain and really respect him for his honesty and integrity.

Despite a few gaffes involving no understanding of the Palestinians' claims to a "right of return," his backing down from CAIR, and this morning's kowtowing to FEMA, I really don't have any problem with him.

Thanks for taking the time to respond. Hope you're doing well with your new steel "bumper."

When asked, he states that concealed carry laws should be dealt with at the state level.

Unfortunately that's exactly where the states start infringing on the 2nd Amendment as noted in recent stories about Illinois and New Jersey. A strong statement in support of National Right-to-Carry Reciprocity Act of 2011 would be a great deal-sealer for Cain.

What's his position on having open homosexuals in his administration?
 

TP: Mr. Cain, you recently came under fire for your comments about the kind of people you would appoint to your cabinet. Would you be opposed to appointing an openly gay but qualified person to be in your cabinet?

CAIN: Nope, not at all. I wouldn’t have  a problem with that at all. I just want people who are qualified, I want them to believe in the Constitution of the United States of America. So yep, I don’t have  a problem with appointing an openly gay person. Because they’re not going to try to put sharia law in our laws.

HERMAN: Who leaps out?
Scott Toomey: Uh, Ken Mehlman,  R. Clarke Cooper, Meghan McCain, Mary Cheney and I. Uh, leap out of the log cabin, uh and uh....
HERMAN: Oh....

“Unfortunately that’s exactly where the states start infringing on the 2nd Amendment as noted in recent stories about Illinois and New Jersey.”

But the converse is true as well. The Second Amendment sets the bottom threshold for gun liberties. States like AZ, AK, and VA are redefining the upper threshold. By relying on a national standard, you hold everyone to the same level of mediocrity.

Politics changes over time. Once you’ve established that it’s a Federal decision on concealed carry, what do you do when a later administration decides to rewrite the same law to make it more restrictive? That’s pretty much what happend with drinking laws. The Feds decided that the minimum age to drink would be 21, and lo and behold it was. In spite of several states having less restrictive laws before that.

Now that you nationalize concealed carry laws, what about states like WV that issue handgun permits to those who are 18 or NH who doesn’t set a minimum age? Do they have to change their laws to comply with the national standard, which would presumably be 21?

Very slippery slope. I think Mr. Cain is right. It’s a state level decision.

A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed.

It's a Right not a priviledge, and Rights shouldn't be subject to any pre-condition no matter what state you live in or happen to be travelling through.
