Is Herman Cain pro-Life?

A recent y/a questioner found a quote saying that he supports a "woman's 'right' to choose." However, I found this response on his website:

Cain's View on Abortion Policy

"Yesterday in an interview with Piers Morgan on CNN, I was asked questions about abortion policy and the role of the President.

I understood the thrust of the question to ask whether that I, as president, would simply "order" people to not seek an abortion.

My answer was focused on the role of the President. The President has no constitutional authority to order any such action by anyone. That was the point I was trying to convey.

As to my political policy view on abortion, I am 100% pro-life. End of story.

I will appoint judges who understand the original intent of the Constitution. Judges who are committed to rule of law know that the Constitution contains no right to take the life of unborn children.

I will oppose government funding of abortion. I will veto any legislation that contains funds for Planned Parenthood. I will do everything that a President can do, consistent with his constitutional role, to advance the culture of life."

Herman Cain-

    What day is it?

    Where/Who is he speaking to?

    Has anyone ever seen Mitt Romney and Herman Cain together in the same room at the same time?

    Even the debates could have been digital overlays.

    An abortion is a clinical technique executed by technique of a health care provider licensed in a unmarried or more advantageous of the 50 states and territories . medical doctors are regulated by technique of the states . The Roe vs. Wade decision usurped the right of the states to modify clinical practice because it applies to abortion . earlier to the Roe vs. Wade decision abortion develop into unlawful in only 36 states ! The overturn of Roe vs. Wade will go back regulation of abortion back to the states , a lot of that are more advantageous orientated to permitting abortion than they were in 1971 . i trust that once Roe vs. Wade is reversed there'll purely be 10 or a lot less states that honestly ban abortion . No lady will be more advantageous than an airplane or bus cost tag faraway from an abortion . enable the US structure artwork because it develop into meant to , the US perfect courtroom isn't a legislative body .

    He is like me, it is a private matter and the person/family doing it or not has to be the ones to make and live with the choice. Another reason to like Herman Cain.

    I'm quite confident that he does in fact oppose government funding of abortion...or anything else for that matter.
