Herman Cain For President NOT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Oh don't get me started on Biden and his rape scenario....oh man.

I'm not a Biden fan at all. Truly, I'm a Democrat that kind of hates the Democratic establishment outside of Mr. Obama and Mrs. Clinton.

I am the same way.......

Somehow I doubt Mr. O has ever said anything to the tune of, "If you're not rich, blame yourself". Obama has a way with words and is a good speaker, but otherwise, he's no more arrogant than the President he succeeded (or the one before him).

How is that arrogant? It is simply the truth... If you refuse to work yet want to be rich it simply isnt going to happen... if you work a job with low wages and want to get higher wages it isnt my responsibility to pay you more... It is your responsibility to go find a better paying job.

I don't either, its just his whole demeanour he rubs me the wrong way. I just hope we can get a presidential candidate that wants a smaller government and who actually wants a government that is "For the People, By the People". We live in a great country but I think we need to focus back on the principles that this country was founded on, all our government seems to do these days is point fingers, trash talk each other and go around in circles and take turns on who has the power and who doesn't I just want a person who will do good for this country and stop playing the World Police to everyone. I had no problem going to war in Iraq or them killing Khadafi or taking out Al Qaeda and Osama Bin Laden but its getting sad when we take better care of other countries then our own......

Technically that's not going to war as much as us just cleaning up 3 of our many mistakes

If you can't see the way Obama talks down to people, I can't help you. He is truly one of the most arrogant people I have ever witnessed.

The most arrogant is a understatement . This guy thinks his crap don't stink .

My bad. I forgot there are no outside forces that effect people's lives. That the system works 100% of the time, and if you combine hard work and ambition, you'll be rich, it's a no-fail plan! Never mind people like my dad who's father got sick early in life, and he had to take a job and forgo his college plans to take care of him. But it's okay, it's not like he worked countless 16 hour days at a steel mill trying to do his best to raise two sons. Cain is right, people like my dad should blame himself for not being ridiculously rich. My dad is clearly just a lazy parasite on the American economic system, right Herman?

Passionate diatribe aside, I recognize that Cain is a great story. That he came from nothing, worked hard and became wealthy beyond his wildest dreams. But for him to sit there and say something like that tells me that he has absolutely no idea how they system works. That there are millions of people out there who come from nothing, work hard, but the stars just don't align for them. For Cain to say something like that is the absolute DEFINITION of arrogance, "an attitude of superiority manifested in an overbearing manner or in presumptuous claims or assumptions."

This guys career is goin to end before it even gets going in politics, just watching him talk about his plans and how he is completely denying any wrong doing against the 3 women so far that have come forward to accuse him of workplace harassment! I understand what this presidential candidate did in the past should have no bearing on his ability to rule our country but a Liar is still a Liar and he is no different then the rest of our political leaders.......When is our country going to stop wearing blinders and run this country as our founding fathers intended it to be run.......Its supposed to be "We The People, By The People, For The People" but the ones we have elected don't seem to get that concept......

Sorry, didn't realize that being accused of something made you guilty of it. We don't have any specifics about these accusations. It is clear that this is a political hit job, and it hasn't affected his poll numbers.

I don't think anybody including Cain thinks that the working class is a parasite. He was clearly saying that you get out of it what you put into it. Sure, outside forces influence success, but success will come from within way before it will ever come from others.

Did your dad desire to be rich? Perhaps he achieved what he wanted. My dad worked his entire life for a lawn and garden company. He desired nothing more. I feel confident that Cain was saying that if you desire to be rich then you have to achieve it on your own. Nobody gets rich sitting at home waiting on someone else to do it for them.

That comment was aimed at the ne'er-do-wells occupying wall street, not the average american worker.
