Herman Cain: Media Scared ‘A Real Black Man Might Run Against Barack Obama’

Every day, with every soundbite, we seem to be inching closer and closer to an official Herman Cain 2012 presidential run. He’s sure talking like a candidate. Just listen to what he said this week about Barack Obama.
At a recent Tea-Party event in Florida, Cain explained that he‘s itching for a chance to prove that there can be a black president that isn’t a “dud.” To prove his firework capability, he delivered a theory as to why the liberal media is ignoring him:
“The liberal mainstream media, notice how they have tried to destroy Sarah Palin, notice how the more popular Michele Bachmann gets, the more they try to destroy her? You want to know why they go after those two ladies more viciously? Because they know that Michele Bachmann or Sarah Palin is going to draw a lot of the women vote away from the Democrat party. They are scared to death of that if they were to run and get the nomination. They are doubly scared that a real black man might run against Barack Obama.”
Shark-Tank.net has the clip (via Weasel Zippers). The relevant comments come around 3:00 below:
Cain, you may remember, made headlines earlier this week when he vowed not to name Muslims as judges or cabinet members.

Unlike that Indonesian drunk who died in a drunk driving accident or the other one who led Obammy’s mammy around on a leash around the world like a white trophy wife before that concept was invented in the Black community… as Chris Rock said: “you ain’t a successful black man til you got yo self a white woman.” His words not mine.

Businessmen have apractical in your face approach. They tell it like it is b/c they have always had someoen to answer to be it a president, board of directors, stockholders, investors etc. So they cant just bs you and get away with it as the truth always comes out (has no agenda).
If Cain decides to run I will vote for him, unless something scandalous comes out. But everything I have seen from him or about him I like. Oh and BTW Im white(italian) and support this possible black candidate.. so stick that in your pipe and smoke liberal zombie racist trolls!
Its clear if BHO goes up against Caine, West or even Trump he will be humiliated. Whomever it is must thunder away directly and personally at BHO. They should break all debate protocol and attack BHO. I guarantee all of you if anyone does this you will see nothing like you have ever seen before in a debate. BHO will crumble live on air as we know he cannot talk off script. Its crucial to encourage whomever goes up against him to cross the line and attack BHO.

Does he want to cut spending? Does he hate the nanny state? Does he want to stop the murder of the unborn and terminally ill? If he answers yes to all of these, then I will listen to him

Dr. Cain is VERY active in the political arena. He has a website (Intelligent Thinkers), and he had a nationally syndicated radio program from 7 p.m. to 10 p.m. on WSB-Radio. WE KNOW where he stands. He doesn’t need a “voting record.” And, he can prove he was born and didn’t crawl out from under a rock in Kenya.

Posted on March 31, 2011 at 3:03pmI am definitely NOT voting for Herman Cain.
What’s a “real black man”?
See, Cain finds identity in the color of his skin; And anybody who does so is going to perpetuate racial class warfare. It’s part of how Cain was raised, and he‘s not going to let go the lie that lends significance to the color of ANYBODY’S skin.
If Herman Cain gets elected, he will perpetuate class warfare.

Obama was unelectable by the logical sense, he had no agenda of his own, and still struggles with words to articulate the cause of the day. Obama proves all you need is enough people with money to buy the presidency. God willing, Hermain Cain will draw enough supporters for himself, or endorse who he recommends.

Posted on March 31, 2011 at 3:35pm@and to the republic,
“That may be the funniest post on this thread. You are not serious? You obviously do not know Herman Cain.”
I know he made an issue out of his skin color.
Honestly, what’s a “real black man”? Obviously, there is some kind of ideology associated with the color of his skin, in his mind. That is outright racism.
But what of the ideology, anyway? Of course it’s the idea that the imagined “class” of white people owe the imagined “class” of black people something in reparations. Color isn’t a class – if someone was racist against someone else, then the specific offender owes something to the specific victim; And if one of them isn’t alive anymore, then nothing is owed because either there’s no one to whom reparations must be given, or there’s no one from which to take reparation.
Color is not a class. Stop perpetuating class warfare. (That’s not directed at you, specifically)
It takes a racist ideology such as those held by such groups as the KKK or the Black Community to convince someone that the color of their skin means something. And while I realize that merely claiming to be a part of the Black Community doesn’t make you as dangerous as the KKK, it’s still a group that is based on the same lie, which is that your color is significant to how you define yourself.
And that is how I know Herman Cain will perpetuate racist class warfare, if he becomes President – he still thinks the color of someone’s skin is something in which to find identity.

I hear what you’re saying. But in this next election, we need the best candidate that can beat the failure POTUS we now have. Right or wrong, skin color may be the best chance of winning the election. As to whether you would vote for Cain, if he wins the nomination are you not going to vote or will you vote for Obama? We cannot afford the wild card of a 3 way race. We need all conservatives to vote! And it has to be an overwhelming victory so that the win is decisive enough to overcome the cheating that will surely happen!

That just means we have to show people that it‘s not the party label that’s important, but how Constitutional they are. We have to talk about the pros and cons of each potential candidate.
And actually, I’m even more against the Republican party after the midterm. Where are the conservative candidates who say that the Socialist/Marxist “elected” officials have taken the oath of office under duress and therefore guilty of treason, and their pretended legislation has no force of law?
The Obama Administration and the Progressives in office are enemies of the United States and need to be tried for treason.

You are forgetting one important aspect… The American people need to elect someone that can beat Obama. That is the most important goal to achieve in 2012, everything else is secondary to that.
If you understood what Obama and his minions are about to throw at us for his next campaign, then you would know that it will take a minority or a female to beat him. Think it all through and you will see. What I find both ironic and fortunate for our side is… we have some superb minority and female candidates about to climb aboard.
