And Conservatives have been playing the dog whistle racism card since the currrent POTUS began to campaign. They think that because no racial slur is used on their end, they can accuse anyone who calls them on their racism of playing the race card and get away with it. It is clear what side most of the racists are on. Between the photoshopped picture of the first family as apes, watermelons growing on the Whitehouse lawn, people getting upset because he put his feet up on the desk in the oval office and the whole birther movement, it is VERY clear. Funny how Herman Cain doesn't address any of that behavior by the people he wants to align himself with, but accuses ther left of playing the race card I bet he will act all clueless and play a victim when someone calls him an Uncle Tom.
Why is it always the conservative posters here posting threads about all the "issues" in the black community? Why are they always the first ones to get outraged when a white person is attacked by a black person but never have anything to say when it's the other way around, unless they are defending the white person? Clearly, we all know why.
He's never been elected dogcatcher. Government does require a different skill set. Have you guys so quickly forgotten how you lambasted Obama for "lack of experience" while supporting McCain (ironic word-play on names there) whose total career was spent in government?
Well I did not support McCain but I do support Cain.
Maybe the problem with government in recent years is just that. We require a certain "skill set" which is how youthful someone looks in front of cameras, how slick their hair do is, whether they've allowed more gray or less gray in their hair, how cute they act to the MTV audience, and how well they woo the people as lying incompetent politicians.
Maybe it's time for something else. Cain was never elected dogcatcher, you're right about that, but he was the CEO of a successful company and has a military background to boot!
As stated, the only time Cain is in the news is when he makes an outrageous stupid comment. If he held a rally the media would ignore him and cover Romney, Perry, Palin, or Bachmann instead.

How off you are in this post! The LIBERALS are the one beating the race card to death, Please do a bit of research. Thanks.

"Candidate Herman Cain, who's near the bottom in polls but probably the most rousing orator in the race, later stirred up the same crowd with a speech"

The MEdia would ignore him... Maybe the left/LIBERAL msm's would ignore him. He is direct competition with obama and has more experience in his pinky than obama has in his whole body!

He became the regional vice president of Pillsbury’s Burger King division. This meant starting from the “ground up,” dodging grease fires and broiling hamburgers. Herman was assigned to lead a low performing region of 450 of their restaurants. Within three years, it became the best performing region in the company.
Energized by overcoming the many obstacles of his job at Burger King, Herman took on the biggest challenge of his career. He accepted the call to become the President and CEO of Godfather’s Pizza, a company that was teetering on the edge of bankruptcy. In just 14 months, Herman returned Godfather’s to profitability and he led his management team to a buyout of the company.
His professional successes garnered the respect and admiration of industry peers who named him the President of the National Restaurant Association. Under Herman’s administration, the group grew significantly and began to lobby for the interests of America’s restaurateurs and small business owners.
In 1994, as head of the National Restaurant Association, he had the opportunity to speak with President Clinton during a nationally televised town hall meeting. Here, Herman challenged the President regarding the impact on businesses if his health care overhaul proposal were passed. President Clinton attempted to assure him and the millions of viewers watching at home that his legislation would not harm American business owners and their employees.
