Herman Cain and Jon Huntsman should stay in the presidential race for the long haul. If you think about it, Cain’s alleged actions were no worst that those of Bill Clinton, JFK, RFK, or FRD. We would have had another Civil War before the two finalists for presidents were both Black so stop tripping about [...]

Genesis 4:15: Herman Cain, Jon Huntsman and Charlie Ward
Posted in politics, tagged Herman Cain, Huntsman, moderates, Newt Gingrich, Obama, republicans on November 29, 2011 | 1 Comment »
My thoughts today turn to Genesis 4:15, the original Cain, Herman Cain, Jon Huntsman and surprisingly Charlie Ward, Jr. From Sunday School, we remember that Cain killed his brother Abel and we joked “what did Eve do after Abel died…she raised Cain.” Seriously, I asked the Sunday school teacher (a high school student) “who was [...]
Rush Limbaugh’s 2008 “Support Hillary” Plan Could Help Obama 2012
Posted in politics, tagged Doug Banks, Herman Cain, Hillary Clinton, Jon Huntsman, Michael Baisden, Newt Gingrich, Obama, Tom Joyner on November 18, 2011 | 1 Comment »
Did Rush Limbaugh create the operational plan in 2008 for Obama/Biden primary success in 2012? At the first public event for the unlikelyalliesproject.com, someone pointed out that Limbaugh created and pushed a national strategy which called for Republican crossover voting. The plan was for conservatives to vote for Hillary Clinton in open primary states and [...]
Michael Steele on Jon Huntsman and Open Primaries
Posted in politics, tagged Herman Cain, Huntsman, Michael Steele, Obama on November 17, 2011 | 5 Comments »
On MSNBC’s Morning Joe, Michael Steele stated that the majority of GOP primaries are open primaries. Jon Huntsman and Herman Cain aren’t exploring Democrats as a vast pool of curious voters. Polls indicate that Huntsman is the Republican who most non-Republicans actually would consider in the general election. (Watch Steele on this video link from the 1:00 [...]
Open Letter: Regarding Southern Democrats and All Presidential Campaigns

If the GOP presidential primary process continues deep into the winter, all candidates will benefit in some way (including President Obama.) We should pause to think about Tim Pawlenty and Mitch Daniels—good guys that most voters never got to know as presidential candidates because they exited too early. Those exits should be a lesson for [...]
Presidential Candidates: Rebranded
Posted in politics, tagged Herman Cain, Newt Gingrich, Obama on November 3, 2011 | Leave a Comment »
When did branding become so important in politics? A brand, as defined by the American Marketing Association, is a name, term, sign, symbol or design or combination of them intended to identify the goods and services of one seller or group of sellers and to differentiate them from those of others sellers. It is about [...]
Obama vs. Cain, the Black Women with White Men List and Other Insults

People get and give insults in the South all day every day. If you have thin skin, you should move. These insults come to mind. The Michael Basiden Show’s list “8 Reasons Black Women Should Date White Men: First, Black Women should date whoever makes them happy and treats them well. But, the list from Basiden’s [...]
Red State Democrats and Hillary’s PUMAs: Inconsequential or Potential Game-changers
Posted in politics, tagged Cain, Conservatives, democrats, Herman Cain, hillary, Huntsman, Mitt Romney, Newt Gingrich, Obama, republicans, Rick Perry on October 25, 2011 | Leave a Comment »
To hear experts talk, the next presidential election will be decided in a few swing states. Democrats in red states must sit back, donate and watch. The only say many moderates have during the process is the primary elections. President Obama will be the Democrat nominee but should Dems hedge our bets by voting in [...]
Politics and Football’s Veer Option Offense
Posted in politics, tagged democrats, football, Herman Cain, Hershel Walker, hillary, J.C. Watts, Newt Gingrich, Obama on October 21, 2011 | 1 Comment »
Presidential politics puts college football’s option offense in my mind. Mixing metaphors is risk as we remember Obama/Palin with lipstick on a pig and more recently Herman Cain’s 999 with apples and oranges. Those other candidates at the Western debate knew full well what he was saying. State sales tax will still be there anyway [...]
Double Dog Dare: Primary Vote for Herman Cain
Posted in politics, tagged Conservatives, Herman Cain, Isakson, Mitt Romney, moderates, Newt Gingrich, Obama on October 17, 2011 | 1 Comment »
Herman Cain’s presidential campaign has created a fascinating scenario for southern voters. Since folks are digging his simple, straight-forward style, I will break it down straight, no chaser. Romney vs. Obama: The White House is prepping for Romney because he is the candidate, as a former moderate, who would be most attractive to centrist voters. [...]
Cain/Huntsman 2012?
Posted in politics, tagged Blacks, Herman Cain, Huntsman, Michelle Obama, Obama on October 8, 2011 | 2 Comments »
When looking at presidential possibilities, two questions should come to a voter’s mind: who do you want to be president and who ensures that the other team’s guy isn’t president. As a centrist Democrat, I want Obama and if someone from the other side became president with a snap of my fingers, it would be [...]
Brainwashed: Herman Cain And Me (Luke 6:42)
Posted in politics, tagged African Americans, Blacks, CNN, Conservatives, democrats, Fox News, Herman Cain, msnbc on October 1, 2011 | 5 Comments »
Herman Cain said Black Democrats are brainwashed and he is right. Also, he is brainwashed and I am brainwashed. Hell, everyone I know is brainwashed to a certain degree by someone or something—some negative and some positive. My dictionary tells me that brainwashing is an intensive indoctrination, usually political, aimed at changing a person’s basic [...]
Uncle Sam and Rev. Wright

For me, being an uncle is an important role and we should all know our roles. Avuncular is an adjective that means “of or pertaining to an uncle.” Uncles and aunts serve as part-time parents like the Parents Reserves—one weekend a month and two weeks per year. A kid may hangout with good old uncle [...]
Political Opponents: Stack the Deck or What the Heck

I am a good American who wants the best people governing. While I support candidates I find competent of any party, a quagmire results from deciding if I should hope for an opponent who is easier for my guy to beat or hope for a quality person who would serve well if elected. Obama is [...]

Political blogging has been interesting over the last few years, but now it’s time to get out and talk with real people about matters that are often missed. Since there is no need to discuss the same old same old, we have put together 10 questions than should be considered in 2010. We hope to [...]
The Obama White House Needs Some South
Posted in politics, tagged Blacks, Georgia, Herman Cain, hillary, Obama, Sherrod on July 26, 2010 | Leave a Comment »
Is the Obama White House too New England? To me, that’s is an interesting question but I do think the South is not “representing” in that camp as well as it should be. Columnist Maureen Dowd just broke it down and made some compelling points based on the comments of a Who’Who in Black politics. A [...]

Election season can be awkward because the process doesn’t always allow the flexibility for voters to express themselves. We have primaries, party slates and candidates who make assumptions from their election results. I voted in the Republican primary six years ago because I wanted to support innovative Senate candidate Herman Cain but I skipped most [...]

Speculation: Sanford Bishop or Saxby Chambliss for Agriculture Secretary

This transition period is better than Fantasy Football because President-Elect Obama is sincerely committed to bridging the partisan divide. What happens with Senator Clinton or Governor Richardson as Secretary of State makes me wonder if there will a position available in the cabinet for Richardson above his previous status? Hopefully, a Georgian will be [...]
Mayberry v. Marshall in Georgia

Prince had a song called “Style” in which he said, “Style is the face you make on a Michael Jordan dunk.” Well, I just made that face when I realized that Obama/Biden have the support of Ron Howard, Henry Winkler and Andy Griffith—Opie, the Fonz and Sheriff Taylor. What optimizes Americana in the 50s [...]
