What is going on with the presidential candidates?
Both the Democratic and GOP top candidates are black. It seems odd to me. Is this the GOP trying another gimmick like Sarah Palin just to stay competitive in the next presidential race. Whats ever happened to diversity among the candidates? It just seems very strange. I voted for Clinton in the primary and Obama in the final election but I haven't seen much progress regarding the economy. I no its not politically correct but I find it kind of silly that we are asking black men to solve our country's unemployment problem.

I'm not sure what the fascination conservatives have with Herman Cain is all about. I suspect that conservatives don't really care for any of their candidates for the Republican nomination, so they back Cain because they actually believe the conservative spin that the only reason Obama won in 2008 was because he got 95% of the black vote. I suspect they hope to take that advantage away by running their own black candidate. Conservatives tend to think black people are racist instead of just voting for their economic interests.

Have you paid any attention to the Debates or Cain's speeches. Aside from his race which probably is a positive, he is the perfect Tea Party candidate. Unfortunately, last nights debate proved he is not capable of running a Country. He kept throwing numerous questions back to Newt Gingrich to answer first. It was pretty obvious his knowledge of much of what he advocates is quite limited, e.g. he is very much in favor or limiting Social Security by allowing workers to pay into private plans, but does not know what a "defined benefit plan" is. He also contradicted himself on a number of occasion.
BTW, you do sound quite prejudiced. The GOP is going with Cain because he is the Candidate who is currently peaking the most interest among conservatives.

i in my opinion have confidence McCain has a greater advantageous thought on a thank you to tug us out of our close to melancholy degree. His thought is obvious decrease & is sensible to me. Obama plans to place a tax of 28% on any earnings we make from merchandising a house. that heavily isn't elementary to us. McCain has worked difficult for this usa, and once you artwork difficult for something you may greater advantageous relish it & consequently have greater of a coronary heart for it, & take care. i do no longer have confidence in abortion via fact it somewhat is been pr oven that the youngsters are somewhat little ones no longer in basic terms fetus's that have not got a character or spirit, or emotions. additionally abortions reason the youngsters soreness. they have seen soreness killers first, yet isn't that in basic terms admitting that fairly greater that those definitely everyone seems to be somewhat killing a stay toddler? McCain does not help abortion, Obama does Lesbian & gay marriage? McCain does not help.Obama helps, it somewhat is as much as you, do no longer circulate what maximum say, examine for the period of diverse subject concerns & help what you sense interior. what's significant to you approximately this usa? i'm happy your vote casting in spite of while you're uncertain precise now. and it somewhat is not a bad ingredient to invite human beings their perspectives, each so often it could grant us a greater advantageous look at issues, different circumstances it could get somewhat stressful like while they say a attractiveness & do no longer state a reason.

First of all, that's kind of racist. Just because they're black they can have good ideas on the economy? Not all black guys are unemployed you know.
Secondly, Herman Cain is the flavor of the month. Nothing more, nothing less.
