Shouldn't a presidential candidate have more knowledge than a fifth grader about foreign affair? My fifth grade daughter even chuckled when she heard Herman Cain talk about China trying to develop nuclear capability. With all his wonderful qualities and great attitude towards women and his fellow americans should we overlook this?

How this person is number one in the polls in the Republican field is beyond me. The idea of Herman Cain as Commander-in-Chief of all armed forces is a surreal view of reality.

More knowledge about foreign affairs and more honesty about issues than a fifth grader

I find it the height of rudeness for politicians to target China at a time when they, more than any other country have loaned us money. China should cash in all it's US bonds and teach us a lesson about manners.

Cain is a dunce if he thinks China is even thinking nuclear weapons. His foreign policy knowledge is zero. No amount of prep would help him if he were the nominee trying to debate the president. In addition to the sexual harassment charge he has big questions about using money from a non-profit to fund his early campaigning which may derail him.

He seems to be "UNAWARE" of many not so insignificant matters going on around him - he probably just needs a "brain", like Bush had. (K. Rove)

The GOP will not nominate Cain. It is funny how his ever changing story about those sexual harrassment cases hasn't phased the SHC.. It must be ok if you're a Conservative..

Well, let me ask another question, when YOUR MESSIAH was running for office, how much of the foriegn affairs did he know? Well, duh, just about as much as Herman Cain knows. The argument of the day is THE ECONOMY, STUPID. Why would any one care who the prime minister of any country is, if he can't run the economy, and has destroyed the best economy the world has ever created. Again, just in case somebdy hasn't heard me, IT'S THE ECONOMY, STUPID

How about not increasing defense spending as Herman Cain is talking... And perhaps not lowering taxes on the wealthier americans while increasing the burden for those that are struggling. Lot's of things could be approached that would help this country...but increasing the burden on those that can't handle it is not acceptable....one small thing that could help is legalizing and taxing marijuana...ending all the wars we are involved in. Herman wants to increase defense spending and put the burden on the poor and middle class...not acceptable.

OBAMA didn't know anything about foriegn policy until he got in office. Now, they are beating Herman Cain with the same stick. How come they didn't raise that question with their MESSIAH. when he was running for the first time? DUH! I don't know, could it be that he couldn't answer the questions then?

Okay, let's look at what has happened since the 1960's. We've elected members of the Washington "ELITES". How did that turn out for you? These "ELITES" have gotten us into the Viet Nam war. Had Watergate, then the CARTER ADMINISTRATION, then Regan came in, Then we had Bush #1, Clinton, Bush#2, then OBAMA. None of these people had any solutions to our problems, and they have gotten us in to wars and financial collapse. Now, you are crying for the same "ELITES" to run our country. Let's try someone who has never been in government. Maybe, he has an idea that will get us out of this mess, for sure these Washington PEA HENS, that are now the self appointed "ELITES" don't have a clue.

OK ... so we elect a dumb ass that didn't know China went nuclear 40 years ago, one that was foolish enough to get his dumb ass charged with sexual harassment, then to top that off he starts lying about the actual facts involved with the situation, this is your kind of guy .... and you call me stupid ? Try pulling your head out of your ass and really consider the facts before you show people just how shallow you really are!

These people live in an illusion,and extreme arrogance and over estimate the power of America. They dont realize that China and Russia or N Korea,is not people to try and mess with.
We can not invade or occupy these country and impose our will like we can other countries without Nukes.
