The Issues | Herman Cain for President

I don't know, just based on his website his stances seem to be run-of-the-mill GOP points, there was nothing I didn't expect to see... it's the safe route to play. And others have leadership experience they can play on, like him.

I guess his unique appeal is that he's a so-called Beltway outsider, so that could give him powerful traction as the cannabilism escalates and candidates try to toe the ideology line while at the same time appearing unique.

And another thing is he doesn't have a policy record that he'd have to distance himself from and risk looking like an opportunitic flipflopper, unlike Romney and Pawlenty, which can be both a positive and a negative. Words are worth much less than actions, and it seems like all he's got is words when it comes to policy. Out of the entire GOP field his candidacy will be the most intersting to keep an eye on.

Lecturing Americans To ‘Reread’ Constitution, Herman Cain Confuses It With Declaration of Independence

Americans should indeed read the Constitution.

But they must read the interpretive Constitutional case law as well to understand the issues in the proper legal and constitutional context. The Supreme Court decides what the Constitution means per the rule of law, not the politicians or voters.

There are things ‘in the Constitution’ that many Americans clearly don’t understand, such as the 10th Amendment.

And Cain in particular is ignorant of the Constitution in his belief he may legally refuse to hire someone to serve in his administration based on that person’s religion.

I think someone in the administration pushing for Sharia Law would be good for this country, wouldn't you?

See the ‘US Compliant with Sharia’ thread.

Obama has the honor of Bin Laden's demise. With your parameters, he also is responsible for the economy and unemployment, along with the debt.

On the Glenn Beck Show today, the host asked the Georgia Republican about his refusal to appoint Muslims. Cain told Beck that he would be willing to appoint a Muslim only “if they can prove to me that they’re putting the Constitution of the United States first.” Beck followed up by asking if he was calling for “some loyalty proof” for Muslims. Cain said, “Yes, to the Constitution of the United States of America.” When Beck then asked “Would you do that to a Catholic or would you do that to a Mormon?” Cain told the host, “Nope, I wouldn’t.”:

What else to expect from a wealthy shit disturber?

Because the uninformed hillbilly sector of the republican party would never vote for a ******.

and secondly if he wins the nomination all hill billies would definitely vote for him.. cause it ain't the hill billies who are racist,, it's demonRats.

Then why do black people rarely vote for the republicans?

Because the left have convinced them that they are victims of the right, the left never mentioned to blacks that it was the Democrat party that where the majority in the KKK, the left never mentioned that it was the Republican party that Abolished slavery, the left never told them that it was the Republican party that passed the civil rights legislation and that it was Democrats in the house and senate that voted against it in the 60's. To put it simply, the Democrats have been very good at lying to blacks and convincing them that they actually give a shit about them as long as they get the black vote.
Martin Luther King JR was a Republican, and here is why.

It should come as no surprise that Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. was a Republican. In that era, almost all black Americans were Republicans. Why? From its founding in 1854 as the anti-slavery party until today, the Republican Party has championed freedom and civil rights for blacks. And as one pundit so succinctly stated, the Democrat Party is as it always has been, the party of the four S's: slavery, secession, segregation and now socialism.

It was the Democrats who fought to keep blacks in slavery and passed the discriminatory Black Codes and Jim Crow laws. The Democrats started the Ku Klux Klan to lynch and terrorize blacks. The Democrats fought to prevent the passage of every civil rights law beginning with the civil rights laws of the 1860s, and continuing with the civil rights laws of the 1950s and 1960s.

During the civil rights era of the 1960s, Dr. King was fighting the Democrats who stood in the school house doors, turned skin-burning fire hoses on blacks and let loose vicious dogs. It was Republican President Dwight Eisenhower who pushed to pass the Civil Rights Act of 1957 and sent troops to Arkansas to desegregate schools. President Eisenhower also appointed Chief Justice Earl Warren to the U.S. Supreme Court, which resulted in the 1954 Brown v. Board of Education decision ending school segregation. Much is made of Democrat President Harry Truman's issuing an Executive Order in 1948 to desegregate the military. Not mentioned is the fact that it was Eisenhower who actually took action to effectively end segregation in the military.

The law Cain states he will violate:

Civil Rights Act of 1964:

In 1964 Congress passed Public Law 82-352 (78 Stat. 241). In the final legislation, Section 703 (a) made it unlawful for an employer to "fail or refuse to hire or to discharge any individual, or otherwise to discriminate against any individual with respect to his compensation, terms, conditions or privileges or employment, because of such individual's race, color, religion, sex, or national origin." The final bill also allowed sex to be a consideration when sex is a bona fide occupational qualification for the job. Title VII of the act created the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) to implement the law.

Thanks to Bush era interrogation tactics that Obama opposed. Obama should be thanking Bush for handing over Bin Ladens head on a platter. Just another freebee for Berry.
And also, he didn't kill anyone, Seal Team 6 did, the only thing Berry supports the killing of is innocent fetus's.

During GOP presidential candidate Herman Cain’s campaign announcement on Saturday, the former pizza executive took a moment to lecture the country on its need to “reread the Constitution”:

[youtube]df8xgvhz_0E[/youtube]​

Cain really should have taken his own advice, however, before he decided to lecture the entire country about the Constitution. The phrase “life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness” does not appear anywhere in the Constitution’s text. Nor does the Constitution include a phrase about the right of the people to alter or abolish a government that is destructive of their ideals. Both of those phrases appear in the Declaration of Independence, which, in case Mr. Cain is not aware, is actually an entirely different document than the Constitution — written over ten years earlier.

See the ‘US Compliant with Sharia’ thread.

The constitution created the supreme court, the supreme court did not create the constitution, therefore it is not open to interpretation by the SC, it means what it says and is not to be manipulated through judicial activism.
I have a feeling some folks on here are going to miss their rights and liberties when they are gone, and one day may have to explain to their grandchildren that they are the dumbasses who voted communists into office that led to the destruction of a once great nation.
I'm not pointing this finger at you Jones, I'm just saying in general.

Rut-Roh...Whom do you trust at this point? Someone whom has been in the trenches...started out cleaning commodes at Burger-King, and raised himself UP to CEO status, Or someone that has really nevr been in the private sector and has proclaimed the Private sector the Enemy, and coddled to be a CEO of a Nation for NO GOOD REASON other than his colour, and a vapid promise?
