Herman Cain: No Muslims in my Cabinet

I truely believe that Herman Cain is the only person that has a real chance of beating Obama in 2012. Right off the top he will split the minority vote, and if were going to be honest that"s the only reason Oblah Blah is President instead of Hillary! And wouldn't it be nice to finally put to bed the garbage about people not liking Obama because he's Black?

Herman Cain is the only one out there that has the balls to say what is really going on. Political correctness is going to be the death of this country. We need more Herman Cains!!!!

He won't need to worry about making appointments. He just sunk any ship he was looking to board for an election voyage. So all this is a moot point. Like the guy, but his 15 minutes are just about over.

Message discipline matters. What we say, in public and private, matter if we plan on running for office in the federal government. This is his Sharron Angle moment. The ironic part: mainstream Republicans will use this statement to sink him if he comes close to getting any traction.

Honest and Blunt. I love it.

No, I'd prefer he wasn't a bigot.

Well said Mr Cain. I just wish our UK politicians had your insight.

I don't know if there ever will be a president cain since obama and the dems will find a way to hold on to power forever. El Presidente/emir for life, like in the mid-east or a banana republic. Point of reference, FDR, power and control is an aphrodisiac.

I'm pretty sure you have no problems with judging others.

Wow , bitter much? You should really take a look in the mirror and reread some of your posts on this site before throwing this at anyone, "I'm sure that gives you the sanctimonious platform needed to judge others."

Thanks Philly, hopefully Drew sees the light soon.

There is nothing anti western about Libertarianism, truth is Libertarian Philosophy is closer to what the Founder's intended than Conservatism is. To lump Libertarians in with Liberals shows a lack of knowledge and understanding of the principles and beliefs of these philosophies. Much like your attacks on Daniel, you assume he is defending something when he is pointing out something that does in fact need to be understood. Not bothering to read and understand his post shows that you probably didn't bother to look at the obvious and stark differences between Libertarians and Liberals, you only saw "Liber" made your conclusion and have run with it since.

"Catholics who say they are pro-choice, pro-gay marriage, and pro-women priests." I believe they call those Episcopalians. :)

ALL Muslims are bound to obey the Koran as Divinely revealed to Mohammed, the one true Prophet of Allah. The required treatment of women, gays, and others is ILLEGAL in the US. Those who are so bound aretherefore NOT ALLOWED to serve in most, if not all, gov't positions

Islam, via Koran, REQUIRES behaviors that are ILLEGAL six ways from Sunday in the US. Upholding the law and the Constitution is not discrimination. This flap clearly demonstrates Herman's point about leftist "S.I.N." Tactics:

Shift the topic: It's not about religion, it's about legality

Ignore the facts: It's not about religion, it's about legality

Name Call: It's not "bigotry","discrimination" or "intolerance" to uphold the law.

Liberty demands vigilance. This is a perfect example.

Freedom ain't for dummies; at least not for long...

Maybe Rush can afford to have "half his brain tied behind his back" We cannot.

Islam itself HAS ALREADY "clarified- The Koran specifies the treatment of women, gays, those who offend family honor, etc. Islam demands loyalty to Allah, period, as laid out in the Koran. The aforementioned behaviors are against the US Constitution, and many US laws. Ergo, Muslims are ineligible to serve in many, if not all, federal positions. Curious to me how feminists, gays, dissidents miss or ignore how their interest groups are treated in Muslim lands (at their peril, methinks). Thank God for the Food Chain, which deals with this stuff, somewhat slowly, but surely...

I agree 100% with Mr. Cain on this issue. The Islamization of the USA is happening. Several 'honor killings' have occurred right here in our country and nobody hears about it because the Liberal (P.C.) so called News covers it up. The Muslims have taken over parts of Europe and they don't know what to do about it. Sharia Law is what every Muslim believes, fact. If they continue to grow in population here in the US we will have no choice but to let them have their way. I hope people wake up before it is to late. Herman is spot on, great post RS.

I think what BigM was saying is that they will be KILLED if they do that. And kudos to you for my quote of the day:

Mohammed was no Jesus Christ

My first reply was meant to be in agreement to your post. :D We're on the same page here.

Yes, he did group Muslims into a group by stating that they will not be in his cabinet and it would rule them out as a judge. However, you need to understand what he is doing in context! He wants their ideology to not be an influence in his policy. He wants equal treatment for Muslim and Christian alike. You can say what you want, but a true Christian will not try to force an agenda to outlaw Islam. It is fact that every Islamist country wants to outlaw Christianity. Cain is correct in his argument.

Herman Cain!

Trudeau DESTROYED Canada. Yet that anti-English, anti-capitalist, anti-American bisexual evil troll is canonized by the left to this day. As a white, conservative, 7th generation Canadian, I see my rights being taking away from me by the PC police, self-loathing white liberals and the any-language-but-English; any-culture-but-the European-one crowd usurp this once great nation. Harper is the best of the last 6 prime ministers that we have had. Immigration will NEVER be halted in Canada. The Reform party tried, and they were destroyed by the usual 'racist' labels. Even the last bastian city of conservatism in Canada, Calgary, elected a Moslem mayor. It is too late to save us.

I think there's one thing we overlooked in this video. Look at the placement of the camera! Obviously it appears to be a hidden camera mounted on the chest somewhere. there is one instance where Herman's hands come awfully close to the camera...not normal if one knows the camera is there. I think Herman had no clue there was a camera.

Point is: His response to the question! When one thinks no one is looking, you see the true character of that person. If Mr. Cain knew there was a camera...would he have answered differently?? IDK but I'm confident his answer wouldn't change.

But I do know this, his response is what I hoped for and concur with. The man does note take a spoonful of "PC" medication daily like most politicians do.

For those of you who feel this will be to his demise, I would simply say; "Have you forgotten that the American people are now wide awake!!!" The only people that will cry foul on this are the LEFT. The minority!!!

Jaynie...well said, and I would add the following:

Being a believer and a daily follower of Jesus Christ, if I were to say that I only believe and live by certain parts of the bible, in the end I know full well that I will answer to GOD and my salvation is certainly coming into question.

Secondly, the same can be said about any religion. You will either believe & live by every word in the doctrine of that religion or walk as Hippocrates of the faith.

And one can only assume that the "Good Muslims" either live in stealth of their faith...or live in total fear of the radicals. Because you can not say you are a good Muslim in one breath and not openly condemn {an Imam for example} the radicals you are asked about their goals to conform all infidels.

THANK YOU Herman Cain for saying what needs to be said. Americans aren't stupid, and they know who the enemy is. Islamic fascists are political preditor under a "guise" of religion. It is not like any other religion in the world and some suggest that it shouldn't be considered a religion just like nazism isn't a religion. It is a trojan horse.

I suspect he will backtrack. He will apologize.

It was a dumb blanket statement to make. It has/will hurt him.

Herman, you are my hero !! Keep up the good work.

He is my first, as West said he is not running

The dems/progs say no one can beat obama in 2012, as if it's inevitable. I wouldn't be surprised if they ran this kenyan marxist in 2016, 2020 and beyond until he dies in office like FDR. President for life or should i say El presidente like in a banana republic.

I wouldn't be surprised if he meant to do this on purpose. He knows he is going to have to rock the boat to get noticed. He also knows he only has 9 months to do so before the primaries kick into high gear.

Throw a bomb on purpose, media jumps on it, and you milk it for all the free advertising and face time you can get.

You may like it, you may not, but it is reality. Nice guys finish last in national politics.

If he's president, he can appoint whoever he wants. Just look at Obama with all the marxists, socialists and communists. Personally, I'd have absolutely no problem if a President Cain had no Muslims in his cabinet - and I suspect the vast majority of people wouldn't either.

Only the media would care and they'd try their best to make us care, too, no doubt.

"... should be applauded..."

Excellent point Linky1 -

One way for POTUS aspirants to "applaud" Geert Wilders is to mention his "point-of-the-spear" comments in his March 25, 2001 speech in Rome...

... and to do so with direct quotes, not simply tangentially referencing "terrorism" or Islam or generic "women's rights" or sharia.

- Melanie Phillips in England

- Caroline Glick in Israel http://www.carolineglick.com/

- Diana West in USA http://www.dianawest.net/

- Pamela Geller in USA

- Nonie Darwish in USA

- Phyllis Chesler in USA

and many more ladies in Europe and USA are applauding Geert Wilders on their blogs and news outlets... but WHERE ARE THE AMERICAN POLITICIANS?????

Maybe we should publically ask people who know

- Sarah Palin

- New Gingrich

- Herman Cain

- Allen West

- Ron Paul

- Rand Paul

- Rudy Giuliani

- Michele Bachmann

- Bobby Jindal

- Rick Perry

- Marco Rubio

- Donald Trump

- Chris Christie

to send them a copy of Geert Wilders' newest speech and give Wilders a public and verbal pat on the back on behalf of all FREE people.

Maybe I should make one correction...

Gov. Chris Christie appointed a Muslim judge who supports sharia law having a say in U.S. courts, so we know Gov. Christie would NOT give Geert Wilders a "pat on the back" for us.

The name of YHWH (YaHWeH) vs. the name of Allah is our best spiritual defense to ... STOP! Islamization Of America ... with our informed free religious speech and informed political action

Muslims think that we are fools for using 'Political Correctiness'.

Under Islam, it is okay prey on the foolishness of non-muslims.

What so many people fail to understand...is that Islam=Islamic government.

There is no such thing as 'separation of church and state' with Islam.

It is one and the same!

No separation...at all.

Here are two reasons why Herman Cain is right:

1. Muslims are fobidden to swear allegiance to a country which is not under Islamic Law.

2. Muslims are allowed to use 'Al Taquiya' with non-muslims...This is the practice of lying to will further the cause of Islam. They are allowed, even encouraged, to lie to infidels, in business, personal and governmental affairs.

Herman Cain is great!

I would vote for him.

I would have just smiled and told them I think it's a bit premature to be making those sort of appointment decisions. Talk to me about that after the elections. Done deal, no lies no dodge just a statement.

He don't have to clarify jack. Musims are trying to convert the U.S. to Sharia law. It is happening everywhere. He is SPEAKING THE TRUTH. Truth hurts and does not have to be politically correct.

This is another version of the Last Crusade of the middle ages. Christians are about to fight back against the Moors all over again in the 21st century.

So let it be written.... so let it be done.

Herman Cain ... Allen West ... Geert Wilders...

Which current American elected politician who aspires to be POTUS speaks as clearly as Geert Wilders does about political and religious Islam?

Herman Cain, for one.

Is there another wanna be politician, male or female, who has the fire in the belly to be an elected politician in 2012 who has taken the public square soap box to speak to American voters about the threat facing America, our U.S. Constitution and our 235 years of a "superior" way of life, compared to the 1400 years of Islamic tyranny everywhere it is tried... uh, I mean, imposed... by convert or die ultimatums?

The "superior" reference is from Geert Wilders speech in Rome, 25 March 2011, at the Annual Lecture of the Magna Carta Foundation.

"The Failure of Multiculturalism and How to Turn the Tide"

Pamela Geller has it posted in its entirety at her blog Atlas Shrugs -

Geert Wilder's speech in Rome should be sent to all POTUS aspirants, and they should be asked to publically comment, with full sentences, just like Congressman Allen West and Herman Cain.

One quote from Wilder's speech in Rome -

"Another thing which we should do is support Muslims who want to leave Islam.

"An International Women’s Day is useless in the Arab world if there is no International Leave Islam Day.

"I propose the introduction of such a day ... ."

[...]

"It is very easy to become a Muslim.

"All one has to do is to pronounce the Shahada, the Islamic creed, which says – I quote

>>>>“There is no god but Allah, and Muhammad is the messenger of Allah.”<<<>>>>>>>>>“I leave Islam and join humankind.”<<<<<<<<<<

I like him too, however I can't help the sinking feeling from this video that he just scuttled his own campaign before he cleared the harbor.

It was a set up question, an ambush,did you happen to see the logo in the upper right corner of the video? I'm pretty sure that reads Think Progress, that could only mean the left is scared to play the "Race Card" on Cain so now just you watch they will play the "Religious Bigot Card" instead. They will scream from the rooftops that Cain is anti First Amendment and a hate monger.

We HAVE to get this guy in the White House !
