If Cain ran against Obama...

Pizza is a scourge on humanity?

I was wondering if that was sarcasm, or not.

It's not really sarcasm so much as it is my Chicago arrogance/uppitiness about pizza.

I really do think it is immoral to call those things "pizza" (It's false advertising, IMO).

But Godfather's Pizza sucks. Maybe the Republicans should nominate the CEO of Papa John's instead. That mother****er knows how to make a pizza WAY better than Herman Cain does. :mrgreen:

I always loved both Godfathers and Papa Johns pizza. Actually I don't think I've ever ate a pizza that I didn't like, hell I even like those cardboard frozen pizzas. Actually, you could probably put **** on a pizza and it still wouldn't taste like **** to me. :lol:

That said... back to the topic.

Well over 90% of black voters consistantly vote Democrat no matter what the color of the candidate. So the Republicans will gain no black votes by running a black candidate. The Democrats have brainwashed the masses into thinking that Republicans hate black people and that isn't going to change simply by running a black candidate. He will simply be regarded as either a token black guy or an "uncle Tom".

Why not Mcdonalds CEO or KFC?

If Herman Cain ran against Obama do you think the blacks would be able to call white people racist for voting republican like they did in the last election?...

err...how many blacks considered it racist for a white person to vote against Obama?

this is just another pathetic Con strawman.

What you apparently don't get is that any “black guy” who actually made his living and his fortune on the basis of his ideas and honest labors, rather than by dealing drugs, robbing convenience stores, and collecting welfare, is an “Uncle Tom”, and not a real black guy; and only the foulest of racists would support such a person in preference to a real black guy.

Also do you think he can steal some of the black vote from Obama?

Well, I guess stealing is a start. Perhaps there is hope yet for Mr. Cain.

forgive me Bob, but that is one damn racist statement you just made.

The same thing that's keeping the tax rates where they are, instead of jacking them up another 5+%.

Any politico that raises the 9-9-9 tax rate to 25-25-25 can expect to enjoy his last term in office.

Nobody will raise much of a ruckus if it went up incrementally. Even if Cain were to veto a raise, he won't be president forever. That and for corps, it's only a 9/9 plan.

repubs not wanting to give obama another stimulus. They'll do it if they give into the cuts they want. Nobody looks at the militarism though.

You're right I've heard some of the blacks say he isn't a "real" black guy(funny considering he isn't a half breed like Obama), and some liberals say they are just using Cain to cover up the GOP's "racism".
 
Camlon said:
And what would be changed under 999 that would make it easier to raise taxes?
Click to expand...

They'll raise taxes if the proper cuts were made for there side. Eventually they'll give though. 9/9/9 won't be 9/9/9 forever, that's a fact.

We need cuts, we have a big spending problem.

And today's tax rates won't stay at today's level either. In fact it is easier to increase taxes now, because there are so many hidden taxes.

However, increases to today's tax rates are much worse, because some companies are getting corporate welfare. The ones who don't will have unbearable tax rates.

Actually, it's not. It's reality. I recall several times, when I was a kid, getting accused of, "acting white", because I went to school everyday, stayed out of trouble and had white friends.

Cain will get none of the black vote...not only because all black leaders wont be for him...but because if you just listened to audio of him speaking you would think hes just another very rich white teaparty far righter.

not to mention the other OBVIOUS flaw. He said it happened to him "several times" as a kid while the other guy is talking about anyone and everyone that isnt a criminal being an uncle tom.????? LMAO

they arent even CLOSE to the same to think thats "reality" is pure BS and nonsense.

Idiocy is what it is.

And the Right claims not to be conscious of race....

Anybody who says you're a racist for not voting for Obama is an idiot and doesn't deserve to have you give them the time of day. However, comments like this don't make you look "un-racist." To be bluntly honest the whole "People think I'm racist because I didn't vote for Obama" is largely a wingnut fantasy. Some of you guys just love it when the race card is played, and when it isn't, you try to goad somebody into doing so.

Calling him a "half-breed" is racist, because it has nothing to do with his policies or his Presidency. It focuses only on the fact that his parents were of different races. There's plenty of room to criticize his policies and the fact that he's been completely ineffective. None of those things are because his father was black and his mother white.
