A new Zogby poll puts Herman Cain​ at the top of the Republican field, as the top choice of 28% of poll respondents. (IBOPE Zogby International says the polling sample consists of “all likely voters and of likely Republican primary voters.”)

Rounding out the top three are Rick Perry at 18%, and Mitt Romney at 17%. Fourth place goes to Ron Paul at 11%. Paul’s the most solid performer in Zogby’s polling history for the 2012 GOP race – his 11% might as well be chiseled in stone.

Interestingly, this poll was conducted after the Orlando GOP debate, but before Cain won the Florida straw poll. It’s a huge surge for Cain, who was polling at 12% just two weeks previously, and was floating at a campaign low of 8% two weeks before that. Aside from that bitter 8% number, Cain has generally done quite well in the Zogby poll, usually good enough for second or third place.

    I’m with you Mr Cain..

      Cain is another Muslim Lover! Dr. Ron Paul 2012 !!!

      • Elaine

        Todd, thank God for you. You’ve been listening just like I have.
        I jotted this down after the first time he contradicted himself.
        He is way way too pliable. He spouts off what will get him elected, and he is shooting himself in the foot.
        My Notes:
        Paraphrasing:
        1) I would have Muslims on my staff (Muslims are allowed to lie to Infidels);
        2) When asked about it? States that he “Misspoke (sp)”; in other words, he didn’t know what he was really saying.
        3) Changed it to — they can give me an Oath (same mistake–Muslims allowed to lie to infidels);
        4) I will have homosexuals on my staff;
        5) Hard-line stance on Homosexuality as a sin

        • Robert Stone

          he s a good talker, persuasive, and hits well on sound bites. But what will we actually get in reality? more of the same militarism , was in the federal reserve system(once in forever in as they hold you to secrecy)
          in other words, he will be easily controlled by the CFR and FRB

        • Brian P.

          I don’t think someone who says ‘If you mess with Israel, you mess with us’ and is the only candidate to go to Israel to show support for her could be considered a muslim lover. And nowhere in the Bible does it suggest you shouldn’t work with a homosexual. It says you shouldn’t be one. Somebody has to witness to them. Pliable? He’s the only one that has given a solidly conservative viewpoint and hasn’t waivered. Perry and Romney dance around their answers. I don’t know who is going to get the nomination, be at least be fair. Or, join the media and pick the candidate already.

      • Deborah Mraz

        Loving muslims and tolerating the muslim threat to this country are two different things. As Christians we are to love our enemy, but that does not mean we have to let them kill or destroy us. It’s people like you that make me realize how luny Ron Paul supporters can be.

        • April

          Amen sista!

      • Garrett

        I stand with you Tod, I stand with Ron Paul, no one else. If he isn’t the nominee, I am not letting my vote go to waste. I am writing in Ron Paul.

        • Silver Bullets

          How utterly pathetic …and childish, to boot!

        • gramps

          Garrett, why don’t both you and Tod just for the Obummer. It is your kind of attitude that has us in this mess.

        • USAF VET

          Garrett, doing that is like voting for a 3rd party which will most assuredly put Obumski right back in the drivers seat.

        • http://intensedebate.com/people/First_One John Galt

          Garrett:
          Your statement in a nutshell is the case against Ron Paul.

          I am glad that you are supporting someone for the nomination, so am I, but after the nominee is picked we MUST support them, it is imperative that Obama be removed from office and the country restored. If you and Ron Paul can not put aside your pride and ego for the good of the country, then go engage in queer sexual conduct. (The automated censor would delete my post if I used the language that I want to, you can figure it out.)

          • http://intensedebate.com/people/First_One John Galt

            PS: Cain is not my candidate of choice.

      • Silver Bullets

        Tod is a subversive fool.

        • MICHAEL

          SILVER BULLET YOU MUST BE A OBAMA FOLLOWER I READ THE THINGS YOU PUT ON ALL THE BLOGS AND YOU SOUND LIKE A FOOD STAMP USING UNEMPLOYMENT FOREVER ACCEPTING
          FREE MEDICAL CARE PAID BY OTHERS
          RADICAL LIBERAL TO ME. YOU SEEM TO HAVE WASTED WHATEVER LITTLE BIT OF EDUCATION YOU RECEIVED FROM THE FEDEAL GOV. AND THEIR DEPT. OF EDUCATION. IGNORANCE IS NO EXCUSE. EDUCATE YOURSELF BEFORE YOU COMMENT ANYMORE. YOU ARE JUST WASTING EVERYBODY’S TIME

      • Charlotte

        Cain said at first he would NOT hire muslims; but then through a lot of flack he recanted it. More than likely because it would hurt him in the running.

      • Bob Landis

        Ron Paul supporters tend to cheapen their man when they say things like you just said. Why did you say Cain is another Muslim Lover?

      • hunted

        Please explain. What proof do you have that Cain is a muslim lover. Cain 2012!!

      • Jimbob

        You “tod” are the reason this country is in trouble, you are the people the mainstream media refer to as tea party racists. Blow it out your ear. Ron Paul will never be President. He is too old, too short, too ugly, and too much an Isolationist.

        He doesn’t CARE if the nutcase in Iran has nukes to drop on Israel. Get real and get rid of your racist remarks.

      • DanBritt

        I agree with you. Ron Paul should be the next resident of the Nut House !

    • American Patriot

      No way would I vote for another Federal Reserve shill. We have one in there now!!!

      • Bob Landis

        Are you going to vote with your intellect or your emotion ? Paul has garnered the support of people who are for bringing all our troops home and who are for fiscal responsibility. The foreign policy he talks about is vague , other than bring our soldiers home and “everything will be all better” because of the money we will not be spending on the military. I believe that would be a mistake although some parts of his idea would help.
        I like Cain because he is not a career polititian and I think the US is ready for a REAL leader.

    • Silver Bullets

      I second the motion!!!

  • Charles

    I’m also with you Mr. Cain

  • proud vet

    I would like to see a Romney Cain ticket. Two savvy buisiness men who would put thiscountry back on track! I truly like Cain, but he lacks political experiance. 8 years of Rom.ney and 8 years of Cain would be great though.

    • Rex A Waldrop

      Would be great if you take off the Rino Romney. He should be a televangelist/used car salesman. Cain is terrific. I simply do not trust Romney.

      • USAF VET

        Romny and Perry are two of the biggest RINO’s we have. Why can’t people see them for what they are. Both Liberal, both support Obamacare, both are for open borders, and neither of them will sign the Second Ammendment pledge. I fail to understand how folks who say they want someone who will defend the Constitution will promote RINO’s like these two.

    • BIRTHER

      PROUD VET; HERMAN CAIN RAN A DAMN PIZZA BUSINESS, THREE BUSINESSES IN AMERICA THAT (ONLY)! FAIL FROM SELLING BAD MEAT IS PIZZA , MEXICAN FOOD AND A WHORE HOUSE…REMEMBER EVEN THE IRS FAILED ON THE WHORE HOUSE?…

      AMERICAN VETERAN

      • Dean

        What are you talking about?

      • Jimbob

        You Ron Paul bloggers are going to get O-Vomit re-elected, stop with the extreme crap. At least Cain is a real black man with some pretty damn good economic ideas. Getting rid of the IRS being number one on my list.

        I an a proud American Viet Nam Vet, but see no need to SHOUT nonsense.

    • JLassiter

      We have had years of political experience and look where it has gotten us. DC is shoving things down our throats and don’t listen to a word we have to say. Remember the “you have to pass it to see what is in it”? Mr Cain has more common sense in his nail clippings than that rocket scientist from Harvard.

    • Silver Bullets

      That sounds like a bit of an oxymoron to me, Proud. Or given the order in which you listed them, maybe I should have said: a moron-oxy.

    • gramps

      POLITICAL experience……we have had enough (too much even). It was not our founders intent for career politicians. It was for CITIZENS to serve their country and go home. We have pimps buying votes using the PEOPLES (only 1/2) money and wanting more to ensure their re-election. Sorry state of affairs. Go Tea Party…. done with the Tories/liberals.

      We NEED and will be fortunate if someone of the CHARACTER of a CAIN or a PALIN were our president.

    • Charlotte

      Don’t forget – it’s not the President it’s the advisors. If Cain gets top notch advisors he’d be a good Prez.

  • Charles

    I’m also with you Mr. Cain…

  • http://deleted ernest

    Herman Cain is probably the most consistant candidate , if it was blue june 1st its blue now and will still be blue Christmas and memorial day . He says what he means and means what he says . He was my pick when I heard him speak the first time . He has seperated himself from the comotions that go on in debates and don’t dwell on trivial things .He just states his point and steps back and don’t look back and has an optimistic outlook of the future , its not all doom and gloom .

    • Konigallen

      His straight talk approach with sound solutions is a breath of fresh air similar to 1979 – 1980, Reagan.

    • Cait

      Cain didn’t know what ‘right of return’ meant when asked the question by Chris Wallace and tried to flub an answer, then some time later went on Hannity and admitted he had no idea what Wallace’s question meant saying that if he doesn’t know what someone is talking about he ‘won’t fake it, yet clearly he did!
      He did NOT want the Fed audited until he got lots of flak for that stance then comes out and THANKS RON PAUL for ‘his consistent and steady pressure on the Federal Reserve’.
      Cain’s 999 tax ADDS a new tax – we do not currently have a nat’l sales tax. So you’ll have an income tax, fed tax on everything you purchase, state and local taxes and there is no guarantee 999 won’t become 15-15-15. Besides, 999 is just 666 upsidedown.
      Cain supported TARP.
      Cain was involved in illegal actions when on the Aquila Board of Directors defrauding millions of dollars in stock from the Aquila shareholders.
      Cain supports the Patriot Act and so, be default, supports the TSA.
      Cain has no idea what to do about Afghanistan.
      Cain said there would be no housing bubble and that it was fabricated by the media.
      You need to do a better job at vetting before you pull the lever. You can start here

      • Charlotte

        Cain has gained a lot more knowledge since the beginning of his run. Again, ADVISORS! The only thing I would press him about is what is his stance on the Federal Reserve. I’m not sure but I don’t think his position in that area was high up.

      • Jimbob

        Chris Wallace is a liberal leftwing extreme idiot who does nothing but try to start fights within the debate. He should be thrown out on his ear. Cain does not have to know what “right of return” means off the top of his head.

        So you want career politicians running this country, as Herman says: How’s that working out for you” Ronald Reagan was the last non career politician we had for POTUS, that worked out pretty darned well.

    • gramps

      Earnestly Ernest you are spot on. Go CAIN (or PALIN). Our country should be so fortunate to have either or both (what a dream team).

      • m

        Go with the losers, Palin, Cain, etc.
        Get Obumer reelcted.

  • BIG FISH

    IF IM A WHITE GUY AND HATE ODUMA THE LEFT SAYS IM A RACIST. NOW IF I LIKE HERMAN CAIN WHAT AM I ? IM CONFUSED !

  • http://newsmax Alan

    Mr. Cain gets my vote also.

  • OAHS

    Finally a businessman and not a politician … gets my vote …

    • Dean

      Mine too.

    • Michael Maven

      Someone is forgetting that DOCTOR Ron Paul is also a businessman… and a physician… and has not flip-flopped, or misspoken, or stayed out of the fray of the debates.

      He also does not allow his personal religious beliefs to interfere with his Congressional record, and knows full well how to keep them separated from his politics.
      He does allow his Constitutional beliefs to squash every bill that comes before him whereby the government tries to exceed the bounds of the Constitution.

      RON PAUL 2012 & 2016

    • gramps

      Finally a PATRIOT not a politician!

  • Ron Homan

    Interesting how the MSM has manipulated the political news such that conservative women such as Michelle Bachmann is cut out. She gets my vote unless Sarah runs then I will be in a deep dilemma.

  • Susan

    After watching an old you tube video of Cain (was running a business then) and Clinton over health care. My vote is with Herman Cain. He is to the point, not a career politican, worked his way to the American Dream. I think the National sales tax could be a bit lower because no tellin’ what the states will try and charge us. Cain as President and Bachmann as vice! Bachmann because she uses the constitition as a guide.

  • JDH

    I will vote for Cain- I an a little leery of Perry and do not see much difference between Romney and Obama. A Cain-Bachmann or a Cain-Ginrich ticket would be extremely welcome.

    • samswede

      No difference between Romney and Obama? Except for the fact Romney has actually run businesses (successfully), has a plan for growing the economy, and promised to derail Obamacare- no difference!?!

      I am supporting Cain myself, but let’s not get stupid here.

    • Silver Bullets

      Gingrich is a brilliant intellectual and wonderful historian, but be VERY careful what you wish for as Newt is not reliably conservative…enough!

      Everybody please study EVERY candidate rather than throwing in with your first infatuation.

  • http://yahoo.com tod

    Don’t let the Media dictate who you vote for or We will end up with another Obama! Dr. Ron Paul 2012 !!!

    • Silver Bullets

      Tod, you’re making me nauseous with all this Ron Paul finaticism.
      I’m begging you…
      make a careful study of EVERY candidate and resist the temptation to glom onto a single person who has a single-pet-issue with which you agree. Ron Paul is a loose canon with one or two well reasoned the ideas…the rest are mere flights of fancy. I really hate to see all you Paul supporters so determined to throw perfectly good votes away!

      • http://jimlundberg.com Jim Lundberg

        Maybe if Ron Paul was given a fair shake then we wouldn’t be so “fanatical”. You must understand that the media is again blacking most of Ron Paul’s campaign successes. He got 2nd by 152 votes in Iowa and nobody even mentions his name. He gets more donations from people in the military than ALL of the other GOP candidates COMBINED, yet this fact is presented as a lie as all the other candidates are shown with their paltry $5000 or $6000, yet Ron Paul received $36,000 from military people. Don’t you see that the people that are actually doing the fighting want to end all six of these wars we are in right now?

    • Charlotte

      Tod, Ron Paul is waaaaay too old to be Prez. Do you realize he’ll be nearly 80 when his first term would expire? I’m not saying it would happen, but when you get up in that age level, a certain dementia may set in.

  • Retired chief

    There are two declared contenders who interest me: Michelle Bachman and Herman Cain. There is one more who has not declared, and I fear will not declare, Sarah Palin. These three will bring out all my energies and my meager resources to support them. I am a veteran also and I disagree with the veteran supporter of Ron Paul because I feel Ron Paul’s foreign policy is disastrous. we have made commitments, and are ob
    Iced to honor them. I agree completely with his position on the Federal Reserve and the U.N., But we are the country that has served as a guarantor of the independence of Israel and need to continue to do so. Likewise, It may be time to reconsider or renegotiate NATO, that has outlived it’s purpose. Now it seems to be serving as a miniature U.N. With us providing the arsenal and the manpower. That does need to end.

  • Dean

    Reading all the comments above I see only two names. Cain and Paul. Maybe they should be our contenders.

    • Silver Bullets

      Have you seen the polls? I’ll give Ron at least one compliment: he’s consistent. Consistently at the bottom, that is.

      • http://jimlundberg.com Jim Lundberg

        Consistently SHOWN at as close to the bottom that people will accept as a valid result. If you went to the California Straw Poll, you would have seen the real percentage of representation that the candidates really have. There were probably 1000 Ron Paul supporters vs about 30 Perry supporters and they didn’t look too happy.

  • JackK

    Bachman’s command is only on the constitution and Obamacare, I liked her ,but she would never expand about the economy,deficits,jobs,foreign aid, plus if she does not know the answer she makes up a story. Perry,Romney, both seem establishment and fake and flip/flops. Paul seems an isolationist(that is what happened at Pearl Harbor, they thought if we stayed out of it everything would be fine), does not support Israel, and said he would not of went after Osama or ordered the seal team after him( and that is after 3000 americans got killed in NY). Herman Cain I agreed with his position from day one, is not a political insider, has a plan, knows how to get business going, at least has experience which Obama has none, would like to here some more of his foreign/national security views, would like to know what VP choice he would make and then that could ice my vote if everything else was alright. He could possibly use some of the candidates in his administration because our country needs all the help it can get!!!

    • Carol

      I totally agree with your reasoning, JackK. I feel exactly the same way. We don’t know everything yet, that might come out during the vetting process, but at this point, I’m for Mr. Cain.

  • Thomas

    Mr. Cane is a good candidate…he has upped his game. He is however very weak on foreign policy but the incumbent is no genius on that or anything else for that matter so Mr. Cain would certainly be an upgrade. I see Newt is creeping up and he is certainly the smartest candidate by fair with alot of experience. He remains my first choice.

    • Cait

      Newt is a CFR man. They’ve been running the country since the Wilson era. Don’t you want to end that? A vote for Newt is the same as a vote for BO – no hope, no change for America.
      Please vet the candidates!

      • Peaches

        Once again, the globalists (or whatever you’re calling them these days) haven’t given us a good choice for a candidate. Perry is definitely out – just ask a truly conservative Texan who followed the State Legislature Session this year. Romney is out because of Romney care and his position on Race to the Top (another plan to continue to dumb down our children and prepare them to be state drones, with their station in life being selected for them by the time they’re in 2nd grade). You’re right about vetting the candidates – Newt Gingrich is my choice. I saw a very good presentation tonight on Agenda 21. Know what that is? The UN’s plan for world domination down to every last detail of our lives. The presenter mentioned that Newt is the only one who knows how many inroads the UN has made into our lives, and the only candidate who knows how to stop them. Reconsider Newt. I understand what you’re saying about the CFR, but my intuition tells me that we can’t trust Perry, Romney or Cain (I agree about his Fed experience), and Huntsman is a joke. Paul, Bachmann and Santorum are all sincere and genuine, but just not forceful enough leaders to get the job done. I wish they were, but to catch a thief, you have to know where all of the bones are buried and how to out-think the thieves in Washington. I was in Georgia when Newt was Speaker and formed the contract with America. He has experience with these matters and has shown himself to support the Constitution and founding principles. Gingrich or Paul.

        • Cait

          Yes, Peaches, I do know all about Agenda 21. But I do not believe Newt for one second. He was the GOP Whip when Bill Clinton established, by EO no less, the President’s Council on Sustainable Development. Newt could have said something then or when he became the Speaker. What did we get instead? Crickets. I don’t recall him saying a word about A21 back in 2008, either. The only reason he mentions it now is because the TEA Party knows and asks about it. If they didn’t he would remain mute on the subject.
          Paul, OTOH, introduced the American Sovereignty Restoration Act in 2003 to end our affiliation with the UN. Newt just wants to cut us out of Agenda 21, Paul wants to get us out of the entire evil UN system.
          Plus, where is Newt on the Patriot Act and DHS? Seems his new ‘contract’ keeps them both. Paul wants to get rid of them.
          And then there’s Newt’s new ‘tax plan’. For heaven’s sake – for the first 120 odd years Americans paid no income tax because our Founders understood the fruit of our labor belongs to us! Paul wants to get rid of the IRS all together because the more money the fed gov has, the more money is wasted and the less we have. How people came to believe paying income taxes to the fed gov is ‘patriotic’ is beyond me. It’s not. It deprives us of our property.
          Newt is a brilliant man, but I cannot and do not trust him.

  • das boots

    Do I see a Cain & Rubio ticket?????

    • Silver Bullets

      From your keyboard to God’s ears, Das!

    • Neville

      Let’s hope not, as Rubio does not meet the constitutional requirements. (Santorum may also be in a similar boat, but we need to know his father’s naturalization date to be sure)

  • Ed Rogers

    I’m delighted to see this support for Herman Cain. I honestly believe the mainstream media is scared to death of him…..because, with the correct running mate, he can handily beat Obama. The GOP needs to recognize the support Mr. Cain can muster, recognize what he can do for the Republican Party,and how well he will serve as Commander-in-Chief and as the Chief Executive Officer of the United States of America. Now, add a running mate choice like Marco Rubio, and the GOP will earn the very powerful support from the very important minority ethnic voters in America, earn the offices to which they will be elected and then lead our country in the direction it must go for the next eight years and beyond.

    • Wlmitch1

      There is just one problem with Marco Rubio. He is a native-born U.S. Citizen, but NOT a natural-born U.S. Citizen. He was born four years before his parents became naturalized U.S. Citizens. Therefore, he is not constitutionally eligible to be either President or Vice President. That is a shame because he would be a great President or Vice President, and is a real American Patriot, but we MUST obey the Constitution. Let’s not do with Rubio what the Democrats did with Obama. No more constitutionally INELIGIBLE presidents and no constitutionally INELIGIBLE vice presidents!

  • off plum

    Cain is a skull and bones alumni …. and a globalist

  • off plum

    Did I forget to mention he was also chairman of the Federal Reserve in Kansas City 1995 1996 ……. who’s going to vote for someone that worked for the private Federal Reserve that just robbed tax payers of trillions of dollars and shipped our money all over the world. The same bank that said no government agency can audit them or has any power over them. It would be like having Timothy Geitner as president. Anyone involved with the federal reserve should be thrown out of office on their asses, then tried for high treason against the American people. Maybe we can elect him and call him Herman Geitner?

    • American Patriot

      @off plum,
      Great post and Cain would be controlled by the same cult that controls Obumer now!!

    • Charlotte

      The FR thing is one thing that must be pressed on Cain. He really hasn’t been “transparent” enough with that. It has been mentioned very briefly.

      • Neville

        Actually, he does get pressed on this, by voters at town hall meetings, etc. And do you know what he says about it? Cain says he is annoyed by the recurring “stupid question” about the Federal Reserve.

  • http://skyvolts.com ProfChuck

    Cain is the most exciting person to appear on the conservative stage in years.

  • tweety

    At least Cain is consistent in his message. He has business experience and some sort of a financial plan for the country. That’s his strong point.

  • amandaleane

    Herman Cain/Allen West,,, this should be the next ticket,,, but let’s not forget bev perdue (d-nc) has suggested that the next congressional elections be delayed for 2 years in accordance with the agenda of Obama…. so now the ruse to do away with elections has started… please, everyone,, scream at your reps to not let this happen!!! It will surely be the end of the USA if elections are cancelled, making obama “king dictator” like he wants to be…..

    • Wlmitch1

      No it won’t. If they suspend the 2012 elections, there will be civil war and they know it. Let us hope and pray that they are not that stupid.

  • Annie McFannie

    Boys and girls, it’s too early to cast it in concrete. No throwing stones. I’ve already
    changed my opinion on this election 3 times. I wish Christy from NJ would run for
    the office.

  • Joyceann

    I’m for Cain the first time I heard him and checked his background. He is one of us. Let’ s elect him and Raise Some Cain and Clean House.

  • off plum

    Thanks patriot ….
    Just can’t understand how people know Cain is a federal reserve con job waiting to do the bidding of his true masters and people still say he’s a good talker and is consistent? When the hell are people going to wake up in this country ? Our government is no longer in our control, its fallen to globalist criminals hell bent on world dominance…… take one freakiin hour to research who your talking about before you say what a swell person they are. Cain would hug you one second and stick a steak knife in your temple the next . Haven’t we the people been pissed on enough to at least find out who the honest candidates are ? Complacency has gutted our republic !

  • off plum

    Look I support the constitution, I have no allegiance to any man. I do not use the constitution when it suits my talking points. Our founding documents should be used as they were intended, as the law of our land. Without it you can see what can happen, our own government a prime example. It was ment to bind the government, keep it small and under the control of the people. We have all sat back and let our elected officials spit in the face of the founders and done nothing.
    When you let politicians ignore the constitution they also ignore the law, this makes them criminals does it not ? I have watched all the candidates have researched the voting records and looked for any ties to the people pulling Obamas strings … iam not here to insult anyone , we are all patriots here. Some of us also realize who the true enemy is also ….. let’s work together to fix what is broken .

    • Cait

      Very good comment. I’m also very concerned that we aren’t properly vetting the candidates and just taking the 1 minute sound bites in the debate as gospel. I agrre with your statement that it is the Constitution that is the law of the land.
      I want to add that the candidates must also know what the Constitution actually says. And here, Cain fails. He actually said, “Our Constitution guarantess the separation of church and state.” No, the Constitution guarantees that the federal government will not make any law respecting an establishment of religion.
      We all must do our homework and vet the candidates

    Great point Cait !
    CFR are the fingers for the hand of the NEW WORLD ORDER …..
    They can not be nor ever should be trusted. They have infiltrated every branch of government.

    • Cait

      Post often, off plum. We need to energize the populace to do their homework and help them understand the real issues at hand. We can’t be lazy this election cycle or we will see the end of our beloved America.

  • off plum

    Paul has many good points and is the most honest man running in my opionion.
    His message is very strong , limited government , get rid of the crooked federal reserve , get the troops the hell back home, stop nation building , obey the constitution. Also has in my eyes the best voting record. He has been warning the American people of the evils of the Federal Reserve and the economic manipulation by them for years and years. The guy isn’t afraid to stand up to the criminals robbing the American people.

    • Cait

      I wasn’t really a Ron Paul supporter until I started reading about Agenda 21. After that, I looked for any candidate that spoke out against the UN. Ron Paul is the only candidate that understands just how dangerous our alliance with the UN is and will work to end that relationship. All the evil in the world can be traced back to the UN. The UN was the springboard for globull warming, evironMENTALism, sustainable development and now for the rise of the Arab League which dominates the UN. In 1972, the UN issued the Vancouver Declarations which, among other things, advises government to deny private property rights because it makes people ‘wealthy’ and interferes with the UN’s plan of ‘social justice’.
      Like you, I believe Ron Paul is the best choice to restoring American principles.

    Thanks Cait…..
    just good to get a chance to do what I can to help ……

  • David

    For all you Ron Paul fans……if you vote for him in 2012 you are wasting a vote because he is too far to the libertarian side to win a general election….sorry but that is the truth and you better get your head out of the sand before the general election or your vote could be the one that sends BO to the WhiteHouse for a second term….

    And…..the Federal Reserve is a private company…..it is not part of the government and if you consistently believe that government needs to stay out of business then you would be remiss in allowing the government to audit the fed as you keep saying……you can’t have it both ways. As a private company they can loan money to whomever they want to and it is none of your business. Now if you owned stock in the fed then you could complain about who they loan money to, but as they are privately held we have no say in their business at all as long as they don’t break any laws.
    I’m not saying that I agree with everything they have done or are doing, but auditing them is not legal and cannot be mandated by the government. Remember we want less government not more government intervention in business!!!!

    • Neville

      David, I think you just don’t understand. The Fed is not just any ol’ private company. They create money out of nothing, then loan it to the US government. They manipulate the economy with monetary policies that cause inflation and bubbles. This is like the USPS or Fannie Mae, it is only “just a private business” if you squint and use only one eye.

      For the record, earlier in his campaign, Mr. Cain commented about auditing the Fed: “There is no need for an audit. If you want to know what the Fed. Res. does with the money, just call them up and ask them, and they will tell you.” Now, as of the last couple of debates, he has come out saying “Yes, the Fed. Res. does need to be audited.”

      He is just another opportunist, with principles of convenience instead of principles of conviction.

  • Georgia Boy

    People still don’t get it. As a nation, we have told God we don’t want Him in our schools or our government. We have had decades to repent of Roe vs. Wade and haven’t done it. How many 9/11s and Katrinas does it take for people to wake up. And we think we can pick a man to make us prosper!! “Ain’t gonna’ happen” folks. The Jews rejected Jesus and have paid the price for centuries. So America, just keep on thumbing your nose at God and wondering why things don’t get better, no matter who is elected.

    Ron Paul is a great congressman but way too radical for Prez….I’m going w/Herman Cain….
    Herman Cain/ Allen West…..I love Rubio but I’m Not sure If he can run since his parents didn’t become USA citizens until after he was born….

    • steve

      radical ? why because he is the only one that stands for the constitution instead of using it for toilet paper like obummer or the rhinos

      • Cait

        I’m scratching my head at that word, too, Steve. Radical? An honest man who want to follow American principles set out in the Constitution is radical. Wow. Seems many are set on keeping America on the course of destruction.

    • Jimbob

      Why does it matter where his parents came from. The current POTUS came from a 15 year old white ho mother and a 1/4 black, 3/4 Arab father. His father was NEVER a citizen of the U.S. He may not have even been born here. There is no evidence to suggest Rubio can be disquallified if the curent POTUS is not arrested for treason or impeached.

      • Wlmitch1

        Where his parents came from is irrelevant. The question is, were both of his parents U.S. Citizens (either naturalized, native-born, or natural-born) at the time of his birth. The answer is no. Therefore, Marco Rubio is a native-born U.S. Citizen, but NOT a natural-born U.S. Citizen. The same holds true for Bobby Jindal. Both are great men and great Americans, and would be great presidents, but neither are constitutionally eligible to be President or Vice President. They would be illegitimate presidents, just like Obama is.

        Obama is obviously not a natural-born U.S. Citizen and may not even be a native-born U.S. Citizen, and is therefore an illegitimate President. We do not need any more illegitimate presidents, Democrat OR Republican.

    Although Cain has his 9-9-9 plan, he has also been a strong supporter of the FairTax. His 9-9-9 plan is good, but, it still allows to much manipulation by Congress, as someone stated earlier, what is to stop them from turning it into a 12-12-12 or 20-20-20??? NO, we MUST take the ability to pick winners and losers through our tax system away from Congress, the FairTax is the only system that does that.
    As for the Fed, even thought he was on the board for a time, I think if the Congress supported an audit, he would not stop that, it is the right of Congress, and it is they who must authorize and act on an audit. It sickens me that Congress allowed private banks to assume THEIR Constitutional responsibility for the governments finances in the first place.
    I think Herman Cain would make a great President, he would have to pick a vice President that had a very strong background in Foreign Policy, my pick would be Allen West! Can you imaging, TWO strong conservative black men on the ticket! That would shut the libs up, don’t you think?

    Tell me that America isn’t Israel by the seed of Jacob(Gen. 48:16), who in the end days has only the forbidden foreigner over u.s.(Deuteronomy 17:15)? p.s., After all our sister England already has been marxist(anti-christ, as Isalm by the way) since the 1920′s! But u.s., England’s sister had to put over it not only the “forbidden foreigner” of Deuteronomy 17:15, but also the end time Anti-Christ(Marxist) that will use the marxist-manifesto Unitied Nations to do so! After all, how else could the first(Cain) be last and the last(Able) be first to be resurrected in these last days? You all do know that like the Wilson League of Nations, the UN also runs by the marxist manifesto to transend religion, right? Duh!

    It’s time for Cain to lead a “Cain Mutiny” against the political forces that are and have been running this country.

    95% OF YOU PEOLPE ARE UNEDUCATED WHEN IT COMES TO POLITICS AND THE POLITITIONS. YOU LISTEN TO MSM AND BELIEVE THEY ARE TELLING YOU THE TRUTH. OBAMA IS RIGHT ABOUT ONE THING. GET UP OFF YOUR COUCH. TAKE OFF YOUR SLIPPERS, AND ACTUALLY DO SOME RESEARCH ON THESE CANDIDATES. STOP BEING SO LAZY AND IGNORANT AND LEARN SO YOU CAN MAKE AN EDUCATED RESPONSE OR COMMENT. MOST OF YOU SOUND SO STUPID IT IS UNBELIEVABLE. YOU MAKE A GREAT CASE AS WHY WE SHOULD DISMANTLE THE DEPT. OF EDUCATION. ALL I AM IS ME AND ALL I WANT IS TO LIVE FREE!!!!

  • Paul Wilkes

    I like Cain but I don’t like his 9-9-9 tax. It has all the shortcomings of three different systems. He and I both like the “fair tax” but he thinks we have to go to it in increments. We don’t!!! One amendment to abolish the 16th and outlaw tax on income and replace it with a sales tax would accomplish the “fair tax” all at once. The 9-9-9 would soon turn into the 16-12-14.

  • dfrank

    Cain is kind of funny at times. But, this isn’t a funny undertaking; and at first, I enjoyed his interjecting his little one-liners into the debates. But, I’m here looking for someone who can move Obama out of the White House. I just do not see Herman Cain doing that. I believe this is the first time I have ever seen a Zogby poll that made me believe some hanky panky is going on. Are these pollsters just trying to compete with dancing with the stars or something — a new flavor every couple of weeks?

    Any shifting in the polls that does not show some significant improvement in the standing of Newt Gingrich (and he is not my first choice) is simply not going to convince me that it is on the up and up. This rise for Cain is simply not credible. He had a reasonable debate. He won a straw poll in Florida which none of the major candidates participated in with the possible exception of Perry. There were a minimal number of people casting ballots or whatever they cast in those things. And, he jumps from what 5th or 6th place into the lead? come on — what happened while I slept?
