What to do about Herman Cain?
This question goes not to the Republican Party, where "establishment" candidates like Mitt Romney privately dismiss Cain as lacking the experience, gravitas and resources to beat President Barack Obama and then to soundly govern the country.
Herman Cain is not going to be the GOP nominee.
Without a serious star-power staff, a ground game, chits to be called in by the candidate or the candidate's influential network of friends of influence, the "fat cats" sit on their checkbooks until and unless they believe their horse can win. A serious presidential candidate is not one who, like Cain, breaks from campaigning for a book tour timed to coincide with his unlikely quest for the White House.
No, Cain is a clear and present danger to the Democratic Party -- and their invaluable near-monolithic black vote.

yea for herman cain!
This is why they ‘inside the beltway boys’ and elitist Republicans and conservative pundits FEAR Herman Cain!
Because Herman Cain who truly was until recently a virtual unknown had faith enough in himself to decide to run for President of the United States on his own. There was no Media hype/pressure/build-up about a possible run, there was no urging by members of the Party, no words spoken into his ear by party players, elites, beltway boys or pundits, not even a word of encouragement from the Republican Party of his home state only faith in himself. Now after months of being treated as being a inconsequential candidate the curious sideshow of a conservative black Republican, he is now in the top tier along with people of great party pull, of men with experienced political machines and the dollars to power them. He did that on his own with no help from anyone accept by his own. Now think what a man with faith in himself like that could accomplish if given the chance.
Now many are saying Cain hasn’t a chance with his little formal organization and even less money.
Well let me remind all of you of what a recent movement did with no formal organization and even less money, The Tea Party.
The Tea Party manage with both those weakness to go on and seriously change the political landscape and in doing so caused the Leftist members of govenment, ellitist of both political parties and media types to quake in fear of them and their rath and all done with only a minimum of formal organization and on a ‘shoe string’ budget.
That’s what sucessful AMERICANS do, what they have always done! It’s what makes us WINNERS! They start out with what they have and they MAKE IT WORK! They make it work because what they don’t have in manpower or money they make-up with brains, sweat, blood and last but most important faith.
Just Cain get enough of that Herman!
great post!
It’s about time black folk not only leave the Democratic Party plantation, they should demand reparations from the slave party, the party of the KKK, the party of Jim Crow. Bankrupt the already morally bankrupt Democratic Party.
Herman Cain is my name
And I rode on the Tea Party Train,
And then all the media came,
tried to stir up the left again...
It’s funny that the people who say Cain is “only a businessman with no political experience” jump up and down to support Trump.
Love ya Herman, but there is more of a chance that I win PowerBall ... and I don’t play it.
The niiiight, we mowed those Demmies down...all the people were sangin’....the night.....
I did that when I started thinking for myself!
... and I don’t play it.”
So, take you off the Herman Cain donor list?
Way back in 2001 I posted the below thread from Larry’s site. The part about the Black Panther in Cuba was great.

born December 13, 1945 in Memphis, TN (Meets the Jus Soli Requirement)
Parents were
Luther Cain Jr., born March 16, 1925 in TN, died March 29, 1982 in Atlanta, GA
Lenora Davis, born July 27, 1925 in GA, died August 20, 2005 in Atlanta, GA
Both parents were US Citizens at the time of his birth (Meets the Jus Sanguinis Requirement)
Herman Cain is a NATURAL BORN CITIZEN
Barry Soetoro aka Barack Hussein Obama ISN'T!
“Barry Soetoro aka Barack Hussein Obama ISN’T!”
Nor will he ever be!
What I think is hysterical is the way the Lame Stream Media don’t understand why he doesn’t “strike a chord” with the American people. Simple. He isn’t one of us.
Without a serious star-power staff, a ground game, chits to be called in by the candidate or the candidate's influential network of friends of influence, the "fat cats" sit on their checkbooks until and unless they believe their horse can win. A serious presidential candidate is not one who, like Cain, breaks from campaigning for a book tour timed to coincide with his unlikely quest for the White House.
Herman Cain *is* going to be the Republican Nominee and he *is* going to be President of the United States.
He might not have a star-power staff, fat cats with check books or friends with influence, but he is inheriting Sarah Palin's formidable army of Tea Party members. The world is changing, he can do a lot through the Internet and cable news, instead of corrupt fat cats and insiders.
What's wrong with Cain promoting his book? It's a powerful way to get details about himself and his policies out to the public.
He has been, far and away, the hardest working candidate out there, so it's not like he's neglecting his campaign by doing a book tour. He has been on TV almost everyday, sometimes on several shows in one day. Just from hard work, courage and tenacity he has created more exposure for himself than any of the candidates. Almost single-handedly, he has propelled himself to top of the polls. I love the way he walks in by himself to many of these events and faces down the high priced consultants, handlers, insiders and huge star-powered staffs -- and beats them all. That is American individualism and initiative at its best.
He is no longer by himself. For Herman Cain, Palin withdrawing from the race was the turning point. He will now have the Tea Party on his side. It's like Winston Churchhill after the Japanese attacked Pearl Harbor and the United States declaring war on the Axis powers. Churchill wrote:
"Being saturated and satiated with emotion and sensation, I went to bed and slept the sleep of the saved and thankful.
"...England would live; Britain would live; the Commonwealth of Nations and the Empire would live.
"How long the war would last or in what fashion it would end no man could tell, nor did I at this moment care. Once again in our long Island history we should emerge, however mauled or mutilated, safe and victorious. We should not be wiped out. We should not be wiped out. Our history would not come to an end. We might not even have to die as individuals. Hitler's fate was sealed. "
That's what Herman Cain must feel like with the army of Tea Party members rushing to support him.
Expect Herman Cain to be smeared mercilessly by the Establishment and Media, but he *will* be the nominee and he *will* win the presidency.
He and the Tea Party will win.
.
So who are ya a Ho for then; mittens or la raza rick?
Funny how the media gave the "community organizer" a pass with NO business or political experience, but now they are all talking about Cain and saying HE has NO experience! Such hypocrits!
