Herman Cain On Mitt Romney: Media Doing A Good Job Beating Him Up, ‘They Don’t Need My Help’

One of the reasons Republican presidential candidate Herman Cain seems to be gaining in popularity with primary voters is because of his real-world accomplishments and a lack of political experience. Yet in an interview with the conservative magazine National Review, Cain seems to have adopted one characteristic of a seasoned politician: never speak ill of another member of your own political party. Cain explained why he doesn’t plan to go on the attack against Michele Bachmann or Mitt Romney.

Cain suggests he doesn’t plan to trash Bachmann in order to appeal to Tea Party voters, especially since they agree on so many issues. Instead, the main difference between him and Bachmann is “leadership style.” Cain argues:

“She has been a businesswoman at one point in her career. I have been a businessman my entire career. So I have a longer track record of fixing problems, of turning things around.”

And Romney is safe from Cain’s criticism too, as he says attacking Romney’s record will be left for the media to handle since “they’re doing a good job beating him up on that hill. They don’t need my help.” The closest he comes to jabbing Romney is admitting “we’re not going to raise as much money as Mitt Romney is capable of spending, or what he’s already spent.”

Regarding any critics who dismiss his candidacy because of a lack of foreign policy experience, he’s got a simple (and honest?) message for them: “how much foreign-policy experience do you need to listen to experts?” And trust him, he knows “a long list of people who know what the hell we should be doing.”

“how much foreign-policy experience do you need to listen to experts?”

Then lets just elect the “experts” and cut out the middle man.

Herman Cain is not the only Black Conservative in the country- more and more of them are willing to speak out now!

The 30-year-old African-American mother and wife is featured in “The Undefeated” as one of the many people Palin captivated when John McCain thrust her onto the national stage as his vice presidential running mate in 2008. In Pella, Iowa today for the premiere of the film, Johnson said she latched on to Palin when the former Alaska governor took the stage at the Republican National Convention.

“We were watching it on TV and my daughter was like, ‘A girl can be president?,’” Johnson recalled. “And I said, ‘Yes, baby, girls can do anything.’ That was the moment — I saw that look in my daughter’s eye, that anything in possible. The next week, I went to my very first political event, and that was to see Sarah Palin. John McCain and Sarah Palin.”

Johnson has become increasingly involved in the tea party since then, speaking at tea party events around her native Virginia. She’ll give the keynote address at an event held by the Charlottesville, VA. tea party on the Fourth of July with her young daughter by her side.

“She’ll be on stage with me,” Johnson said. “I want to get her involved, little by little. I like to say that for the black community, nothing will change until we learn to love our children more than we love the Democratic party.”

This bears repeating-

Liberals don’t mind if black people are conservative, where did you get that in your head. It’s great if the GOP is more inclusive and lets in minorities. I mean, hispanics and blacks are the biggest growing minorities in the country! Soon they will overtake white people and the white people will be minorities.. so it’s good that they get some representation. I wish Cain was on Democrats side but as the population of our country shifts I’m sure you will see tons of immigrants and african americans deciding the fate of the GOP, it’s a good thing!

Why would any person of color vote for a Democrat ?
The KKK was established after the Southern Democrats lost the civil war to the Republican party. The southern Democrats were thought of as the militant arm of the Democrtic party and sought to kill former black slaves, Irish slaves, oriental slaves and the Republicans that freed them all. The late Democrat U.S. Senator Byrd recruited for the KKK. Then Senator J.F. Kennedy voted against civil rights before he became president. President Johnson signed the civil rights bill only after it was passed by a Republican congress. Another Republican Abraham Lincoln freed all slaves. The Democratic party is supposed to be the party of the people, what people ?

Do you think running a pizza parlor would be easy? Can you do it? Now imagine running 400 of them, and turning them from losers to profit-makers? That would be even harder — can you do it?

Cain is no dummy — he has real credentials, not credentials handed to him by left-wing professors who gave him easy A’s.

Cain knows how to create wealth — Obama only knows how to redistribute it, and then he’s not really very good at that, except to make sure the labor unions get more than their fair share.

Were J.F. Kennedy & Senator Byrd also Republicans ? I wasn’t aware of that. ? Politicans will promise everything to everybody and seldom deliver. Senator J.F.K. voted against the civil rights before he needed the growing minority vote to become president.
