I guess this is what the tea party means when they are against big federal government.

Well I came in here hoping it was Volcker but sadly see it's Greenspan.
Mr. "the banks can self-regulate" Greenspan.

Cain is just another corporate puppet

Well it's not getting him the kind of money Obama is getting for his campaign coffers.

Cain has $2.2 million in campaign funds but someone very big and wealthy is buying Obama who has $91.5 million to spend.

Who is the big money behind Obama?

Obama's raising money now for the general election because he doesn't have a primary--he knows he's the nominee. He's getting major corporate donors just like the R's are.

The big money won't come in for the R's until the general election, but they're actively raising it now through PACS and not giving it to candidates yet. If you watched the news, the major R funders have said they're already talking to Romney about money, and assume he'll be the nominee. Personally, regardless of how popular Cain is now, I don't think the R leadership will let him win the nomination--they'll pump money into Romney sooner if Cain looks like a threat in a few weeks--because he won't appeal to the independent voters needed to win the general. They're letting him play out his hand so he'll self destruct and to make this entire primary look like democracy in action. I think they've planned on Romney all along. He'll do or say exactly what the powers behind the R party want in order to win.

Just proves that Cain is a globalist ringer for the establishment while underlining the general economic illiteracy of voters. Cain is part of the co-opted Tea Party, not the original. He is far from a Constitutional Conservative.

The FED policies of Greenspan and Paulson have brought the US monetary system to the brink of collapse. Cain chooses not to publically recognize this because he is a tool for the global banking system.

Ron Paul 2012!

Cain is just another Obama, who is just another Bush, who is just another Clinton, etc...

As an aside this wasn't even a good attempt at your ongoing quest to bash the TEA Party.

Goldmann Sachs, JP Morgan, Morgan Stanley, Monsanto, Google, Facebook, Berkshire Hathaway, Public/Trade/Labor Unions (a.k.a. money launderers for the DNC), George Soros's many organizations, Acorn, The Working Families Party (an organizer of OWS), The Joyce Foundation, The Tides Foundation, a multitude of PACs, a multitude of foreign interest and foreign donors......and the list goes on.......

That leaves us all Ron Paul, if you want any hope for a real change.
