    GOP presidential candidate Herman Cain stood firm Friday on his promise to make Muslims prove loyalty to the U.S. Cons ution before appointing them to his administration - a test, he has said, that would not apply to people of other faiths.

    The former CEO of Godfather's Pizza denied that the proposed test is a form of discrimination when pressed Friday by CNN's John King.


    "That's not discrimination. It's called trying to protect the American people," Cain said. "This nation is under attack constantly by people who want to kill all of us, so I'm going to take extra precaution."

    LOL... that's the first I heard.

    Now that is inappropriate if he was in a position of power over them, which as president, he was. However, I cannot believe that without some pretty solid evidence. It's one thing to be a little flirtatious, but that is out there. Besides, i head something else, which I haven't mentioned because I have no collaborating evidence. Just hearsay.
    Who gives a what you believe? If you really want to believe that two unrelated women at different times reported him asking them back to his room both are just gold diggers wanting a $40k payday then you go right ahead. Its important that your sophist mind has all GOP candidates pristine, we know that.

    Why would Cain even consider appointing people he thought capable of killing us all?

    He helped the poor without one government program. He healed the sick without a government health care system. He feed the hungry without food stamps. And everywhere He went, it turned into a rally, attracting large crowds, and giving them hope, encouragement and inspiration.

    For three years He was unemployed, and never collected an unemployment check. Nevertheless, he completed all the work He needed to get done. He didn’t travel by private jet. He walked and sailed, and sometimes traveled on a donkey.


    But they made Him walk when He was arrested and taken to jail, and no, He was not read any Miranda Rights. He was arrested for just being who He was and doing nothing wrong. And when they tried Him in court, He never said a mumbling word.


    He didn’t have a lawyer, nor did He care about who judged Him.

    His judge was a higher power.


    The liberal court found Him guilty of false offences and sentenced Him to death, all because He changed the hearts and minds of men with an army of 12.

    Brody: Are you for some sort of pro-life amendment to the Cons ution that in essence would trump Roe v. Wade?


    Cain: Yes. Yes I feel that strongly about it. If we can get the necessary support and it comes to my desk I’ll sign it. That’s all I can do. I will sign it.

    "We don’t need to rewrite the Cons ution of the United States," Cain said. "We need to reread the Cons ution and enforce the Cons ution."

    "And I know that there’s some people that are not going to do that. So, for the benefit for those that are not going to read it because they don’t want us to go by the Cons ution, there’s a little section in there that talks about life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.

    "You know, those ideals that we live by, we believe in, your parents believe in, they instilled in you. When you get to the part about life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness, don’t stop right there, keep reading.

    "’Cause that’s when it says that when any form of government becomes destructive of those ideals, it is the right of the people to alter or abolish it. We’ve got some altering and some abolishing to do."

    I wonder whether Palin would have mistaken the Declaration of Independence for the US Cons ution, but yeah.

    Cain flailing lately. If he had any brains, he would've walked back that Muslim comment.

    He definitely has some weak areas. However, he was successful by surrounding himself with people who are knowledgeable in the areas he lacks, and I'm sure he would do the same as president. Then once given the proper facts, act as needed. Probably far better than the past four presidents we had.

    My God...

    No president was ever completely knowledgeable on everything.

    Ah thanks WH. Smart of him to do that, but that makes the original comment somewhat stupid... so he was saying that he wouldn't allow violent Muslims who supported terrorism to take office? I'm pretty sure they wouldn't win enough votes in the first place.

    Sounds just like Bushy. That ended well.

    You have no evidence to support this contention.

    My God...

    Every president since LBJ knew China has nuclear weapons. That is a minimum requirement for me.

    Cain either walks it back or says he was joking. He's done it numerous times already. It makes him look silly.

    That's OK. I think any president, other than our current terrorist loving one, would be cautious of Muslims.

    Can you say Bill Ayers?

    But Cain was just joking, so he's not really concerned.

    I don't think he was joking. I simply don't think he understands the impact of what his ideas are until he has them bounced back at him. He isn't good at this political arena. I still like him though. Shows me he's a real human, and not some Manchurian candidate.

    He's as ignorant and as stupid as you are.

    Ordinary eighth graders can be expected to distinguish the Cons ution from the Declaration of Independence...a man running for President, apparently not so much.

    Really now...

    Have you ever seen those "man on the street" interviews, asking people such simple questions?

    What about the 57 states?

    Yeah, he loves terrorists so much he put out the order to kill Bin Laden, sends drones to kill terrorists in Pakistan, and hasn't even closed GTMO.

    He sure is a terrorist's best friend.

    Honestly WC, how can you even claim that you're unbiased/just being skeptical?

    Being familiar with the amendment process is maybe more the metier of a high-schooler, but again, Cain failed miserably. Presidents don't sign cons utional amendments.
