Barack Obama was elected as US Senator, only 100 Americans are. As a US Senator, he understands the operations of US Government, it's budget, foreign policy and the process of legislation.
Herman Cain has never been elected to anything. All he knows about government is that he hates it. He has never had to deal with the political process, knows nothing about legislation or political positioning. He has never dealt with a national budget and has an embarrassingly little knowledge of foreign affairs. There are tens of thousands of businessmen more qualified than Cain as well as thousands of politicians
About the part in red, Just because he is 1 out of 100 doesn't mean he is good (or best) or better informed or more qualified than anybody else. There are plenty of good senators and house representatives that would not make good presidents.
There are only 32 starting NFL quarterbacks, how many of them are qualified to be starting running backs?
So your point is that only Presidents are qualified to be Presidents
I guess we only have one man qualified in 2012
