Kat, does it not stand to reason that any individual with the attitude and the rhetoric and the style that's sufficient to maintain the attention and emotion of the audiences of not only Boortz, but Limbaugh would, by default, be too divisive an individual to be a plausible Presidential candidate.
Do you honestly believe such a person would make a good Presidential candidate. ...HONESTLY?
Marc I know it wasn't addressed to me, but I will post it again why I YES to your question. And my mancrush on Cain has nothing to do with the fact Cain is black. Rather it is because we need an economic minded President to get the economy on the right track. We need a guy who knows how to run businesses, big and small. We need a guy that knows business period. We need a number cruncher. Not another community organizer (Obama), failed businessman (Bush) or Career Politician WHO NEVER WORKED ON ANYTHING BUT CAMPAIGNS FOR HIMSELF AND OTHERS (Clinton - Worst President ever)!
Yes, Cain supports some issues I'm at odd with (abortion and *** marriage - he is against both), but his economic and business success is undeniable and that should matter most to ALL OF US!!!
Look at his accomplishments IN THE PRIVATE SECTOR:
(1) Former president and CEO of Godfather's Pizza for 10 years - Ran a HIGHLY SUCCESSFUL Business (Great Pizza I might add)
(2) Former president and CEO of the National Restaurant Association (ran a PRIVATE SECTOR Organization to promote and grow an important PRIVATE INDUSTRY - We want a guy who can promote and grow business,
THIS IS UNDENIABLE PROOF THAT HE KNOWS HOW TO DO IT!!!)
(3) Former chairman of the Federal Reserve Bank of Kansas City (A POLITICIAN WITH ACTUAL BANKING EXPERIENCE)
(3) He's been vice president of Burger King (More experience running a large GLOBAL CHAIN)
(4) Vice president of Pillsbury Company (Ditto),
(5) A mathematician for the U.S. Department of the Navy (A HIGHLY Successful business man that knows numbers! Slight different than a failed community organizer)
(6) A business analyst for Coca-Cola (Analyst for one of the largest wholesalers in the world - NICE). .
(7) Author of a Best Seller - "They Think You're Stupid: Why Democrats Lost Your Vote and What Republicans Must Do to Keep It" –
(8) Now president and CEO of The New Voice and host of "The Herman Cain Show"
(9) An associate Baptist minister at Antioch Baptist Church in Atlanta (This is proof of his him moral standards)
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) *** Marriage - Against it (I am also at odds with him here)
