Herman Cain is the man...

Doing this from my iPhone as the computer is being worked on, so this will be brief. I am so energized and excited about Herman Cain's candidacy catching fire, although whether it stays that way is certainly an open question. Blindered 'progressives' will never give him a serious look, of course, and never give up their religious belief in Republican/Tea Party 'racism,' so I have no intention of appealing to any vestiges of logical thinking that may remain in those quarters. For the rest of us who have become convinced that almost anyone will be better than Barack Obama but who would like a candidate to be excited about, Herman Cain fills the bill in many ways. Don't get me wrong--I know that his lack of experience in elective office is a drawback no matter how it's spun in this anti-incumbent age, and I've said from the beginning (having been his fan from the beginning) that he would best be utilized as a v.p. pick for a strong nominee. That's the problem--who is that person? But one thing you can take to the bank--inexperience and non-PC gaffes notwithstanding, HC is the real deal. Doubters of BO, whose experience as a black in America in no way approximates Herman Cain's, are embracing Herman precisely because he embodies the possibilities in the America we love and want to preserve, as well as the extraordinary strength and dignity of American blacks who rely on themselves to succeed.
