Herman Cain Announces He is Running for President: - Complete Video 5/21/11

Today was one of the happiest 'political' days of my life because there was suddenly a real and palpable feeling of HOPE in the air...and this was because Mr. Herman Cain finally announced that he was throwing his hat into the ring for the Republican nomination for President Of The United States in 2012!

Mr. Cain may not be a 'household word' right now but he's rapidly gaining steam and momentum, and will definitely be a 'household word' within a few months if it even takes that long!

I've always said that we, as a country, need a President who is a true Leader. A person who is intelligent, articulate, uses commonsense, can think on his feet, has a successful Business track record, loves God and our country, believes in following and obeying our Constitution, and will actually LISTEN to what the American public is saying! AND a person who could debate Obama under the table...easily!

This list of requirements...necessities, actually...is a list that the current GOP candidates proposed to us up to this time do not meet. Oh, they may meet a few of these requirements every now and then but the CONSISTENCY in their track records for meeting these requirements just isn't there!

I don't know about you but I'm sick and tired of being told "he could win because he's handsome" or "because he voted for...(ONE thing)". I'm also sick and tired of the empty words of career politicians that are designed to simply garner our VOTES!

These career politicians are not leaders but OPPORTUNISTS who care more about their own career, money, and ego than about doing what is good and right for the American people and for the United States.

Today, however, marks the day when we now HAVE a candidate who MEETS THE ABOVE REQUIREMENTS!

It will be up to all of us to get behind Mr. Herman Cain with our voices, our physical help, and with any five or ten dollar bill we can send monthly to help finance his campaign.

This campaign is going to be a grassroots effort...financed with grassroots money which means that the majority of donations will be sent in by those people who are living on Unemployment Compensation. Those people who worry about meeting the rising cost of food and utilities. Those people who are struggling to keep their family's head above financial waters while working long hours in low-paying jobs. You know...US!

It's not going to be easy, folks, since we've already had to tighten that belt around our waists quite a bit. However, I'm willing to tighten it one or two more notches and contribute those few dollars monthly to help get Mr. Cain nominated and then elected to our nation's highest office!

If we ALL do this monthly, Mr. Cain WILL have the necessary campaign funds to run against obama! Then, after we win in 2012, we will be able to loosen the belt a bit and breathe easier...because we will FINALLY have a President who loves our country and Constitution as well as a President we can FINALLY be PROUD OF!

How I LOVE this feeling of TRUE hope and change!
