I don't know him. Business background. I like that, but I need more before I'd say one way or another.
As much as I would like to waste my afternoon reading articles that are at the latest from 2007, I rather see a list of concise and clear views.
From the looks of articles like these:
It's time to go RINO hunting
I don't give much stock into Mr. Cain. Someone who is trying to paint himself as a Conservative who can reach across the aisle doesn't use language like RINOs.
And of course, articles like these:
The truth is alien to the left
I appreciate the link, but no thanks on wasting my time with such babble. His views on positions such as the Death Penalty, War on Drugs, etc would be more helpful.
Oops, he's just gone up a notch on my pole.
I don't want to see some 'token black guy' though. I don't vote for anyone on color. However, I would be very happy (un-be-lieveably happy) to vote for him regardless of it.
Anyone who believes they're a "real Conservative" because of their position on being pro-life is clearly showing tendencies of a Social Conservative. We don't need to elect another Social Conservative. I would prefer someone like Gary Johnson.
Of course you don't bert...I fully expected that response.
The Left will savage him.. he's a staunch conservative, in all respects, but what they will go berserk over is.... he fills in for Rush occasionally. He will be labeled Satan's Apprentice or something equally juvenile and obnoxious.
Wait for it.. wait for it...
Wouldn't it be nice if that did not happen?
Side note: He is also a cancer survivor>

Whatever. If you could help to provide a list of his political views, I'd be more than happy to read it. However, you shouldn't expect me to take someone seriously who rambles on about the "evul" Liberal media and how about the GOP needs to get rid of RINOs as if they're some disease.

I am open minded on a conservative candidate. The only conservative I am closed minded to is Sarah Palin.
Dang bert. First off I am preparing dinner. Second, I have a headache, and thirdly...you can look it up as easily as I can.

Well I wasn't saying you had to at this given moment. However, don't act like I'm close minded about the guy. Here I am willing to read his positions and you say "Of course you don't bert...I fully expected that response." I looked online, I couldn't find anything in my brief search and figured those people who say they "like him" could give some insight.

What Cain Supports:
(1) FAIR TAX FAN!!!
(2) Suspend the Small Business Killing Payroll tax!
(3) Alternative to the Fair Tax is cutting taxes
(4) Cutting Spending
(5) Restructure Medicaid, Medicare and Social Security - Don't add new taxes to attempt to fund them.
(6) Maintain Military and Defense spending at, at least 4% of GDP
(7) Maximize US's natural resources - Drill Baby Drill!!!
(8) Promote Alternative Energy - including nuclear
(9) Get off foreign oil
(10) Be Tough on Illegal Immigration!
(11) Repeal Obamacare
(12) Abortion - Against it (I am at odds with him here)
(13) Fag Marriage - Against it (I am also at odds with him here)
Critics claim the FairTax has two major flaws: It wouldn't work in practice and, even if it did, it wouldn't raise enough money. The first problem has to do with the fact that people cheat on their taxes; they do it now, and they'd find ways to do it under a sales tax. With all of the taxes we'd owe being lumped into one big sales tax, lots of people might be tempted to try evading it, with black markets springing up everywhere.
Joel Slemrod of the University of Michigan's Office of Tax Policy Research says that only six countries in the world have tried to collect a sales tax north of 10 percent, and four of them eventually adopted alternatives like a VAT. Consumers might also be unpleasantly surprised by all the things that get taxed: Not just milk at the grocery store, but legal fees, rent on an apartment, even health-care expenses.
The FairTax bill pegs it at 23 percent in order to fund the government at current levels without raising the deficit. (If you think of the FairTax like a state or local sales tax, you'd say that this is a markup of 30 percent on prices at the store. See the chart above.) But economist William Gale of the Brookings Institution says that this number is way, way too low. "They're telling kind of a big lie about tax reform," he says.
Gale calculates that a 23 percent rate would blow a $7 trillion hole in the budget over 10 years, and that a more realistic rate is 31 percent, and higher still if you allow for evasion. And if lobbyists convince lawmakers to exempt things like health care or other necessities -- a real possibility, given the culture of Washington -- the gap looks even bigger.
that's just like a dishonest shithead, ask a question get an answer complete with a link and then tell her she's wasting your time.. you never disappoint us MORON

So when it comes to the Military budget, he won't actually cut it that much. Especially since the Military budget is currently 4.3% of the GDP.
He's against Abortion, Gay Marriage, and you have some "feel good" statements in there. I don't really see anything that sets him away from the rest of the pack except maybe his support for the FAIR tax and his support for the Gold Standard. Though Ron Paul also supports such a position.
As for the FAIR tax, I don't really see what makes it such a great plan that it needs to be implemented.

Overall, I don't think Cain is the right direction for the GOP from the looks of what Ghook has posted. Gary Johnson still seems to be their best bet in terms of best candidate.
It's too frickin bad you democrats don't get to pick Republican candidates,, that's just a no no considering who you've put in office.

Actually, I'm not registered for either party. Who knows, maybe I'll vote in the 2012 GOP primary.
