Yea I think most Americans will vote for Herman Cain once they see his stands on certain problems with today's society.
Unemployment: As Cain told the Wall Street Journal yesterday if you are unemployed "Don't blame Wall Street. Don't blame the big banks. If you don't have a job and you're not rich, blame yourself."
Finally someone telling unemployed lazy bums to get up and get rich like we all should and can do in America!
Gays: He will repeal "don't ask don't tell" and like all of us God fearing good Americans knows that being Gay is just a choice. They chose to be gay they can choose to be straight and stop making the rest of us normal American's cringe every time we see them.
Taxes: I researched the 9,9,9 plan and it's what we all need. Move the tax burden on to these low income scum bags that are hurting America! It lowers taxes on the rich and corporations which are the job creators so these bums protesting on Wall Street can stop whining and finally get a real job.
Abortion: He is going to ban the birth control pill! This is long overdue so these tramps will finally stop whoring around and get back in the kitchen fixing me a pot pie - where they belong!
Herman Cain 2012!!

I have been following Cain for months, and I like him a lot. I believe he is the only candidate who really knows what it's like for those of us who WORK for a living.

I really doubt that the republican party will nominate Herman Cain, I just can’t imagine him winning any of the primaries. But in case he does, he can count with my vote. I pay more than 9% of my salary in taxes, so his plan would imply a tax reduction for me. For the first time in my almost 50 years a politician would actually do something for me.

Cain is not able

Amazing how Cain jumps into the front runners. He was my second choice but makes me think he has succumbed to other interest. Of course there is no mention of Ron Paul and his consistent top placement in the polls. Just shows me who is the real deal and how the media is controlled. Ron Paul 2012

Cainunism [keyn - yuh - niz - uhm] – noun
1. A theory or system of economic organization based on a wildly optimistic regard for the fiscal discipline of Congress and the President. Adherence to this theory typically requires the suspension of disbelief concerning the ability of increasing the government’s power to tax, without substantive spending cuts, to actually reduce burdens on taxpayers and to produce economic recovery.
2. The intentional use by politicians of resonant slogans which obfuscate and distract some voters from the otherwise conspicuous absence of thoughtful, realistic or realizable fiscal or monetary plans and policies.
Cainunist [keyn - yuh - nist] - adjective
1. Of, characterized by, favoring or relating to Cainunism; Cainunistic
In a sentence: “Imagining that a ‘9 - 9 - 9’ percent tax ‘plan’ would not soon be 9.9 - 9.9 - 9.9, then 19 - 19 - 19, and so on, is just more magical Cainunist thinking.”
Origin of Cainunism: term used by informed voters to describe the economic-sounding slogans that originated from the 2012 vanity presidential campaign of Herman Cain (1945 – )
Synonyms for Cainunism: 1. Prevarication, 2. Deception, 2. Cozen, 3. Hucksterism, 4. Hoodwink, 5. Sales Pitch, 6. Razzle Dazzle

Our beloved nation needs a manager, who can manage the financial household of the country, not politicians with a lot of empty promises and cheap talks. Mr Cain fit perfectly into the role of the manager of the nation, who can turn the country around from the brink of collapse back to the glory of the United States, the economic superpower of the world. Mr Cain follow the principle of fairness by simplify the country's tax code. With it, he overhauls the current unfair, burdensome tax system. By this proposal, Mr Cain upholds the Principle of Meritocracy, which made America great compared to other political and economic systems. Meritocracy nurtures hardworking with high ethical standard and hand off policy from the government. The goal of meritocratic government is to provide service and security to the people. The meritocratic government runs the business of governing as a business: cost efficient. I pray and hope that Mr Cain will get the nomination of the party and eventually the President of the United States.

You can't answer a simple question like when raising tax rates on rich increased government revenue more than decreasing taxes on rich.
I suspect you know less about horse racing than you do about politics. Your memory is as good as our attoney general...
