Cain has never held public office.

Recently, Cain was asked if his lack of political experience qualifies him for President. I loved his response, which in essence was: "Ninety-two percent of the elected officials in Washington are sitting for their second or more term. Clearly, there's plenty of experience in the current Congress. How's that workin' out for you?"

People everywhere he goes react to that statement with standing ovations and cheers - which tells me they are just fine with a non-career politician. :-)

“How’s that workin’ out for you?”

I wake up and realize that today is another day in Obama’s America. Pretty damn lousy.

That is the exact right answer. Career politicians, those with Washington experience and knowing “how things get done” have led us to 14 TRILLION dollars in debt.

A better question to ask is why ANYONE assumes those same politicians are capable of getting us out of this mess when all evidence points to the opposite!
