Cain suggests Blacks are zombies

[salinen]

Same old tire line. That if Blacks could only see through their clouded delusional deprogrammed thinking, they'd be conservatives. In other words, Blacks aren't capable of White thought.

Fuck Cain and his Horse.

[geardaddy]

1. Ouch.

[Johonny]

2. if more blacks voted Republican

would more racists vote democrat since their primary reason for voting Republican would be gone?

[SpiralHawk]

3. Dude has been suckin up WAY too much damn pizza propaganda

Needs to knock off gobblin that inpourTED Fancy Pie crap, and try eatUN Real Patriotic American Food, none of that freaky Eye-talian FourUN Doughy Crud that clogs the brainPAN.

Why Do RepubliWankers HATE real American food?

[hlthe2b]

4. The problem of racism among black conservatives....

sigh....

[qb]

5. I can't believe I used to work for that douche.

My first job was busboy at Godfathers.

[salinen]

6. Oh, so you're the reason he's

running for President. Shame on you.

[Raschel]

7. Cain is more the mule type.

Uggh. I don't know why he annoys me so, from his looks to his speech. Yuck.

[Liberal_Stalwart71]

8. We knee-grows are "brainwashed." Of course, black voters have heard this shit

time and time again from the likes of Uncle Tom black conservatives who think they know what's best for us. They are worse than white conservatives! It's pathetic! And the Republicans will use this guy to shield themselves from charges of racism: Well if Herman Cain said it, we can't be racists...well...because Herman Cain is black!

It's like saying that blacks can't think for themselves because they are voting against their own best interests. That is precisely what poor and middle class whites are doing when they vote Republican!!

Herman needs to get the fuck out of here with that racist bullshit!

WOLF BLITZER, HOST: You're doing well in the polls right now. But let me specifically ask you about the African-American community. Why is the Republican Party basically poison for so many African-Americans?

HERMAN CAIN (R), PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATE: Because many African-Americans have been brainwashed into not being open-minded, not even considering a conservative point of view. I have received some of that same vitriol simply because I am running for the Republican nomination as a conservative.

So it's just brainwashing and people not being open-minded, pure and simple.

BLITZER: That - that's a strong word to talk about your fellow African-Americans, brainwashed?

CAIN: For two thirds of them, Wolf, that is the case. Now, the good news is I happen to believe that a third to 50 percent of the black Americans in this country, they are open-minded. I meet them every day. They stop me in the airport.

And so this whole notion that all black Americans are necessarily going to stay and vote Democrat and vote for Obama, that's simply not true.

More and more black Americans are thinking for themselves. And that's a good thing.

BLITZER: And you've suggested – correct me if I’m wrong - that if you were the Republican nominee, you think a third of African-Americans would vote for you?

CAIN: I do believe a third would vote for me based upon my own anecdotal feedback. Now, they won't be voting for me because I'm black. They'll be voting for me because of my policies and because of what I'm offering to fix this economy, starting with, as you know, my 999 Plan. That's what they are responding to.

9. Clearly one of them ate his brain

:eyes:

10. That's a standard line of thinking for just about everybody though

'If only people would wake up, see things how I do, and believe what I do, they would be with me/us.' You see it on DU everyday - 'if only the masses would open their eyes and realize that they are voting against their own interests, they would not do so.'

I do agree that this line of thought is especially important to black conservatives though, because there are so few people in their own community who agree with them.

11. He doesn't understand how a disadvantaged people won't join him to aid the wealthy

This is a class warfare move that beats anything I've ever seen.

Cain is telling the veritable cannon fodder of the battle between the rich and the poor they should join him on the money side to mold the ammunition that has laid their very own families to futile waste.

Good luck asshole.
