But! So was Obama. So who's to say Cain can't pull the same grassroots move Obama did?
I hope so !!!!!!!!!

How does the FairTax affect wages and prices?
What experience did Obama have?
As much as Abe Lincoln. :sun
Politicians from that time and this time are vastly different. Politicians then, no matter the party, protected the constitution the way it was written. Politicians now try to rewrite it to fit their agenda.
You have an imbalanced view of History. In all actuality, arguments regarding the Constitution and its correct interpretation stretch back to as far as it was written. It was easy to see it being interpreted to fit their agenda, just as it is easy enough to see so now. Lincoln, of all people, felt justified and criticized for his interpretation.
I actually agree to a point. I just think that the politicians of today are much worse about it. The attack on the constitution didn't really start untill the 1900's in my opinion. And of course Lincoln was attacked...he was president in a civil war. He implemented martial law. He did all these things that would cost anyone now their political career.
Yes, but...the Bank of the United States, Marshall's Marbury v. Madison decision, the Louisiana Purchase, and so on. Each represents something dramatic, but now forgotten. The point is, we are just a tad too harsh on ourselves.
I did say I agreed to a point, but I, personally, don't see The Louisiana Purchase as unconstitutional.
Thomas Jefferson would disagree with you then.
Louisiana Purchase - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Newt Gingrich beat him to it.
liberals don't want a black man running against obama? why in the world would you think that?
we certainly disagree.
1) ron paul supporters are irrelevant.
2) what "muslim" thing?3) money comes to front running candidates, and he certainly ought to have plenty of his own to begin.
4) media attention comes to front runners.
republicans do not want a black man as their candidate, because then too many of them would just stay home on election day. you excepted.
My assumption is that the missing word is "Career". Apparently, career politicians got us into this mess, so why not look outside the normal pool of applicants?
Call it a hunch, but I wouldn't bet on Christie holding firm on not running.

As far as I know he is NOT running. There's a rumor he might accept VP if it come up.
And lets see, we have Mitch Danials. If he throws his hat in (as rumored) his numbers may go up.
Trumps out pretty sure. I don't know who will get his votes. Looks like Palin's not running. Cain will probably get most of those votes.
I think Mr. Cain has as much chance as anyone, maybe more. His supporters love him. There's no ho'hum I guess he'll do.
It is? SO we're not supposed to be balanced and informed. Am I understanding your take on things correctly?
B
And the citizens of the Right are suppose to pick the next GOP candidate...???...yeah, right. Good Luck with that!
This is getting funnier every day!! :lol:

Are you talkin' to me?
would you vote for Herman Cain if he made it to the presidential election?
