Well, since I'm a certified "racist" I'll take this one. I rather like Cain, but would like him to be less opaque regarding Iraq and Afghanistan. He seems to dodge lots of issues, and would like him to be more forthright about where he stands on social issues and foreign policy. I haven't heard him talk at length about border/illegals which is a huge issue for me personally.
He's certainly not my first pick. Ron Paul has had an will have my no.1 preference. At this point I'd certainly pick Cain over, say, Newt, or Bachmann, or Romney. Romney is essentially pro Amnesty and a full fledged neocon. The only thing positive I could say about Romney is that he's talked tough on China, which would boost his favorability with me substantially, IF I actually believed him. While Cain isn't my favorite contender, I like him more than many. I also respect him for his ability to thrive in the private sector.
I'd think many black people should like him too. Why? He actually acts, speaks, and behaves like a black person. He hasn't dedicated his life to white mimicry like Obama. He's a black person who acts like a black person and has been very successful in the private sector. I would think that black people could identify with him unlike Obama, who tries desperately to behave like a white person and has never been able to hack it in the private sector. I would think that to many blacks, Obama would come off as phony and fake. Cain on the other hand, does not.
So, there you have it. Inside the mind of a "racist" perusing presidential candidates.
Quote from AK Forty Seven:
Didn't say that.What I am saying is that the republican party/the south /confederate states of america wont vote for a black man to be their nominee or their president
Cain ,West,Steele and the rest of the Uncle Toms will soon find out how the GOP treats a credible GOP presidential candidate
