What you may not know about Herman Cain who is running for president.... He’s not a career politician (in fact he has never held political office). He’s known as a pizza guy, but there’s a lot more to him. He’s also a computer guy, a banker guy, and a rocket scientist guy. - Bachelor’s degree in Mathematics.
- Master’s degree in Computer Science.
- Mathematician for the Navy, where he worked on missile ballistics (making him a rocket scientist).
- Computer systems analyst for Coca-Cola.
- VP of Corporate Data Systems and Services for Pillsbury (this is the top of the ladder in the computer world, being in charge of information systems for a major corporation).
All achieved before reaching the age of 35. Since he reached the top of the information systems world, he changed careers! - Business Manager. Took charge of Pillsbury’s 400 Burger King restaurants in the Philadelphia area, which were the company’s poorest performers in the country. Spent the first nine months learning the business from the ground up, cooking hamburger and yes, cleaning toilets. After three years he had turned them into the company’s best performers.
- Godfather’s Pizza CEO. Was asked by Pillsbury to take charge of their Godfather’s Pizza chain (which was on the verge of bankruptcy). He made it profitable in 14 months.
- In 1988 he led a buyout of the Godfather’s Pizza chain from Pillsbury. He was now the owner of a restaurant chain. Again he reached the top of the ladder of another industry.
- He was also chairman of the National Restaurant Association during this time. This is a group that interacts with government on behalf of the restaurant industry, and it gave him political experience from the non-politician side.
Having reached the top of a second industry, he changed careers again! - Adviser to the Federal Reserve System. Herman Cain went to work for the Federal Reserve Banking System advising them on how monetary policy changes would affect American businesses.
- Chairman of the Kansas City Federal Reserve Bank. He worked his way up to the chairmanship of a regional Federal Reserve bank. This is only one step below the chairmanship of the entire Federal Reserve System (the top banking position in the country). This position allowed him to see how monetary policy is made from the inside, and understand the political forces that impact the monetary system.
After reaching the top of the banking industry, he changed careers for a fourth time! - Writer and public speaker. He then started to write and speak on leadership. His books include Speak as a Leader, CEO of Self, Leadership is Common Sense, and They Think You’re Stupid.
- Radio Host. Around 2007—after a remarkable 40 year career—he started hosting a radio show on WSB in Atlanta (the largest talk radio station in the country).
He did all this starting from rock bottom (his father was a chauffeur and his mother was a maid). When you add up his accomplishments in his life—including reaching the top of three unrelated industries: information systems, business management, and banking— STACK THAT UP AGAINST THE 'COMMUNITY ORGANIZER'.... Herman Cain may have the most impressive resume of anyone that has run for the presidency in the last half century.

I was wondering when the fawning Cain biographies were going to start zipping around the Interwebs. If there's one thing wingnuts are, its evil. And if there's another thing wingnuts are, is consistent in there creation of crappy emails to support their cause de jour.
He’s not a career politician (in fact he has never held political office).
They why would I even think about putting him in the most important elected office in the world? I thought experience in office was vital to becoming President?
Also, he not a career politician, but he was a lobbiest for a powerful business special interest group. So to call him a political outsider is just wrong.
Bachelor’s degree in Mathematics.
Master’s degree in Computer Science.
Sounds kinda snobby and elitist. Also, for a supposedly educated guy he speaks like an idiot and his policies are insane.
Adviser to the Federal Reserve System. Herman Cain went to work for the Federal Reserve Banking System advising them on how monetary policy changes would affect American businesses.
And yet he still pushes this 999 tax crap, even though he should supposedly know how much its a royal screwjob for most Americans? Asshole.
STACK THAT UP AGAINST THE 'COMMUNITY ORGANIZER'....
You just knew that was coming. I'll admit, Cains entire career probably does trump Obama's very first job out of college. Throw in editor of Harvard law review, state assemblyman, US Senator and President of the United States, and I think its gets a lot more even.
Herman Cain may have the most impressive resume of anyone that has run for the presidency in the last half century
I seem to remember a similar line in these emails about Sarah Palin. Its amazing how the wingnut crush of the minute always becomes the most qualified candidate in the history of anything ever.
Nice resume, but history has shown that Americans are more interested in what crazy things his pastor has said, how angry his AA wife is, and where exactly he was born. So where's your birth certificate, Herman Hussein Cain?
What kind of mustard does he like?
This is probably taken word-for-word from a Cain campaign promotional mailer. But since it comes by email MRWD thinks its 'an interesting read' which is both funny and sad.
Herman Cain is such a great businessman and Fed officer that here's his tax plan.
Huh. They left off the part where he was a serial sexual harasser, didn't know what his position on abortion was, was hazy about the meaning of the term "neoconservative," and said that we should have an electrified fence on the border to fry illegal immigrants (which he then apologized for, but then doubled back and restated). Oh, and the tax plan based on a video game. And the fact that he couldn't pronounce "Uzbekistan" but then claimed he was mispronouncing it on purpose. Oh, and the campaign commercial with the guy taking a huge drag off his cig while staring at the cam, while at the same time telling kids not to smoke.
That guy? Yeah, I wouldn't trust him with a fucking wet dream.
I thought all these wingnuts also too hated Obama bc he was such an effete elitist with all his fancy degress 'n shit... that's why the wingtards loved Bible Spice... bc she was dumb as a rock but looked so hawt 'n who cares if she had to flunk out of five community colleges before getting her "degree"??? And what jawbs did Palin have anyway? Beauty queen contestant?
Yes, Cain did run a successful pizza business (even if his product sucks, his business model worked). But how does running a successful business really connect to being a successful President? Or State Governor? It really doesn't bc there's a huge world of difference between running a business enterprise and running a govt/state/country.
That's one of the biggest rightwing FAILS going but bambozzles the rubes always... yeah: E-Meg Whittman built up E-Bay and made HUGE buck$$, so she'd be GREAT as CA Governor bc she'd "really know" how to run CA "better." Why? E-Meg made ton$ of money from insider trading an other nefarious shit associated with teh Goldman Suck$, and her so-called "business acumen" would stand for jack-shit in terms of "running" the State of CA.
Same goes for Cain and his so-called "abilities" to be Pres of the USA. Cain's a frickin' joke. He's been *hired* by the Koch brothers to "run" as the AA antidote to Obama, but Cain's got squat chance of actually getting the nomination. Cain is just a convenient *distraction* for the credulous rightwing rubes wishing to "prove" that they aren't bigoted, racist jerkwads... which we here know differently from all the bigoted racist jerkwad RWFs.
And btw, there's carefully dictated propoganda being issued about how Cain's sexual harrassments weren't really "his fault," and/or conservative citizens should just get over their "Victorian prudishness" and *ignore* Cain's many sexual harrassment charges bc they don't mean a thing. Of course Monica giving Clinton a consensual blowjob is STILL a horrid & disgusting outrage against family values and must be abhored at all costs, but who's counting how many hypocritical double standards conservatives wish to embrace at any given time????
Cain's a fluffer... pay no attention. The Koch's behind the curtain are just doing this as warm-up to their "main guy" Romney getting the nod. Magic undies will be more palatable to the Christians about Cain... mark my words.
This propoganda paid for and brought to you by David & Charles Koch.
Herman Cain: "How ya like me now?!?"
Plus, his pizza is terrible.
Probably because of the swirling things.
In his head.
Yep.
Bye bye, Herman. You were fun while it lasted.
