Qualified to do what, run a pizza and hamburger company?

When McDonald's is looking for a Chief Executive Officer maybe he can apply, but now he need good leaders.

Running a business does NOT qualify one to be President of the United States.

Herman Cain is on the wrong side of many issues. FREEDOM is one of them that he more or less is 90% against as he says he is 90% IN FAVOR OF THE PATRIOT ACT.

He doesn't even support auditing the FED which was unanimously supported by Congress!

He supported TARP!

He has evidently no position on the troops in Iraq "yet" and said that would be decided AFTER he is elected President.

He has backed off on his position about having our currency backed by precious metals and in the last election.

'Fraid not Herman Cain! You have to have a lot more of your positions figured out to be taken seriously as a presidential candidate.

Austrian Economist, Tom Woods has some great comments on him and the other candidates

This is HILARIOUS. If the 'Paul people' believe they can attack and bad-mouth another candidate (i.e. all other candidates) and thereby gain support for Ron Paul, well that simply is WRONG....and turns off most everyone.

And, sorry to inform Paul supportors....but Paul CANNOT get elected.

I'm as sure he can't win....as I am either of the former Bush'es will never be President Again!

Thank you for your opinion, now go remind his other 20 million grassroots supporters before that number grows any more. Please save us all, quality guy, with your quality postings.

You are just jealous because your guy Rick Perry is going to have a LONG LONG road ahead of him trying to explain away his extremely questionable background and track record. Having been a Democrat and chief of staff for Al Gore doesn't help him one bit.

Also the trend has been that when a candidate drops out, it only further propels Ron Paul ahead with more supporters.

What is Rick Perry's message going to be that is going to hypnotize and mesmerize people into changing their mind about Ron Paul and vote for Perry because that is what would have to happen for Perry to get elected?

He also doesn't seem to have any real view points on anything. When he gets asked a question about policy his token response is "I Don't know, but I will sit down with the "experts" and figure it out". I have heard him give that response multiple times to multiple answers.

Also I don't like the man because he was a member of the federal reserve and he has zero experience. Making pizzas at a third rate chain doesn't qualify anyone to be president. He can try to pretend that his lack of experience is an asset, but truth be told it is a liability. I'm pretty sure he learned about claiming liabilities as assets from the federal reserve. They are good at that crap.

I agree with this entire post. Especially the bolded part. Some people can be so gullible when it comes to politicians.

Now I wonder? Why these FALSE claims? I'm jealous? Of who...and what?

Considering a bunch of his latest comments I can't consider him a serious candidate.
