So let's say I put on blackface and then started a pizza company.....would that make me as qualified as Herman Cain to run for President?

"Hey hey I'm a black guy who ran a pizza company in Nebraska!  I should be President!"

I mean really, am I the only person on here who doesn't believe the hype or the bullsh*t?

1) Yeah, this post isn't racist at all.

2) It would help if you included some more basic facts about the guy before posting. Thanks.

Okay fine, I will admit he does have some tenure down at a Federal Reserve Bank and he does operate a radio talk show.  However, compared to the rest of the field I feel it is still quite lacking.

And I don't necessarily disagree with you but stop making him out to be some nobody that only ran a pizza company.

This isn't about me being a PC asshole. The black face comment was blatantly racist.

Okay it was a bit crude I admit, but really man:  Admit it, Herman Cain wouldn't be this big of a deal if he were some white dude who was a talk show host (like Rush Limbaugh) who was Republican.

Actually, I don't necessarily agree with that. Sure, Steve Forbes was a bigger deal as a businessman but that was his one claim to fame and he received considerable attention in 1996 and 2000.

But if you really believe this to be the case with Cain, would you also concede that the current President wouldn't have been half the phenomenon he is supposed to be because he's black?
