Herman Cain is likable and articulate, in addition to being authentically conservative.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Please, I beg, do not get me wrong here as I really like HC but how and where is he authentically conservative ?

Could you please explain how or why you think/feel this way ?
I dont see a record that gives me “proof in the pudding” so to speak. I mean, we can talk all day long but where is the proof for you, for anyone ? As an aside, I ran two pizza shops back in the days, very successfully I might say ,and I dont have a degree. One was a national chain but not GF’s.

I mainly stay off the Cain threads because there is so much bashing and trashing and just plain downright nastiness against anyone who is still on the fence even tho I think for most of us here at FR, we’ll support whichever candidate gets the nod from the GOP.

I’m sitting here scratching my head in wondering because I’m curious because of reading soooooooooo much stuff here and hearing soooooooo much stuff on my other groups.
Besides having a really hard time consentrating on other stuff since my cat disappeared and days later, a litter of four kittens were stolen from our newly remodeled barn.......sigh.

Thanks in advance of your reply. You may reply to me privately if you’d like.

I must confess surprise that this question is asked by a FReeper because I believe that the authentic conservatism of Herman Cain is readily apparent from his many inspiring speeches like this one at the Value Voters Summit [no teleprompter], hundreds (thousands?) of FR threads and his conservative activism as a Tea Party favorite: Herman Cain rallies the Tea Party in Madison, WI.

But since you asked, here’s a quick (and far from complete) overview of my personal belief in Herman Cain’s authentic conservatism, which IMHO must contain all three legs of the Reagan Coalition stool ….

Social conservatism
Herman Cain Backs Human Life Amendment
Herman Cain Picks Clarence Thomas as Model for Supreme Court Appointees
Is Herman Cain Pro-Life? (Dr. Alveda King)

National Defense Conservatism
Video- Cain: "You Mess with Israel, You are Messing with the United States. It's that Simple"
The Cain Mutiny
You Don't Need Foreign Policy Experience To Know Who Your Friends Are

Fiscal Conservatism
Herman Cain on Occupy Wall Street: They want handouts
Paul Ryan ‘loves’ Herman Cain’s 9-9-9 tax plan
TeaCon establishes Herman Cain as a ‘real candidate’

Herman Cain is authentically conservative on all three legs and he can articulate his conservatism effectively to obtain the necessary votes in the general election.
