Impossible; he has lost votes from every demographic: independents, Catholics, etc...etc...

The experiment is over; voters know we need an adult like Mitt Romney in there to clean up the mess.

I don't want The POTUS to have "swag".

I want them to want a society of hard working achievers.

North Korea thinks were pussies, China owns us, he cares more about Afghanistan soldiers than ours, and he did nothing but quit on Iraq.

Take off your brown colored glasses.

Yes, but for every 1 gblock there may be 4 black people who vote for Obama in November just because he is black.

As I'm sure that there will be many Romney voters who choose him because he isn't black. It works both ways. Until 2008 a candidate's race wasn't much of an issue. Unfortunately, that isn't true anymore.

as i stated i dont have faith in our current system. i feel like big business and those who lobby for them have corrupted things. politicians are all crooks imo. furthermore even if a person with solid convictions who i beleived in were in power, rarely do they have the abilty to create anychange because of said corruption or lack of control of the house/senate. so i didnt vote and dont plan to vote this time. for this reason i also dont bitch about what happens. i was just making an observation that the GOP candidates are very lukewarm to me and not very inspiring. if you vote for them it would be because you agree with their policy more than their leadership if that makes sense??

...and this is exactly why I wish Herman Cain had been a more viable candidate for the GOP.

That way, everyone would have to vote on the issues, rather than on the color of the candidates skin.

He was not. Cain destroyed himself.

Although he had good business experience (which the current POTUS did not and does not have), he had way too much baggage and lost alot of credibility and respect due to his sexual harrassment issues.

Do you really think Cain took his candidacy seriously? I believe it was nothing more than a means to sell books.

I dislike politics and politicians as well, but I still vote and you should too. Do what I do, I just vote against the incumbent in every election. If people did this more often, instead of keeping people in for life, we would get politicians that actually work to achieve something for the greater good because they would know their seat isn't safe.
