My Choice for 2012
I, like many conservatives, have been watching with anticipation over the past few months of the republican presidential primary race. We have now had several debates and opportunities to see how each candidate would handle him/herself when the lights were turned on and the cameras were rolling. I have always had a favorite, a candidate that I personally felt I thought I would end up supporting since he announced. Yet, I wanted to do due diligence and make sure that the field was pretty well established and that I was sure of what the choices before me were. Now, as the race is heating up and we come to the end of 2011, I have made my decision on who I will be supporting for the republican nomination for President of the United States!
The 2012 election is an extremely important election. One that I believe will determine not just our success, but our very survival as the greatest nation in the history of the world. America has been weakened by weak leadership (on both sides of the aisle) for too many years now. These weak leaders are career politicians who have been more concerned about lining their own pockets than the country's good. They make decisions based not on what is right, but rather what is going to help themselves prosper, whether that means winning another election or more contributions to their campaign. The leaders of our nation are weak, and weak leaders cannot strengthen our nation. Therefore, we need a strong leader to guide us out of the mess we are in and lead us to a more prosperous and successful future. That man, I believe, is Herman Cain!
Herman Cain has overseen many successful business ventures and best of all, has never held elected office. While the pundits may say that means he's inexperienced; I say, that means he's got just the experience we need in our leader. Leadership skills are not something taught only in the halls of elected office, rather they are life skills which are grounded in principles. Leaders need to lift up the organizations they lead, rather than tear them down. You can tell the success of a leader by looking at those he/she leads. If the followers are struggling so much, as Americans are right now, there is something wrong at the top. This is a universal truth in leadership. Someone once said, "Everything rises and falls on leadership." Our nation is falling because of our leaders, the Chief of whom is President Obama. We have seen how Washingtion's leaders are tearing our country down. Obama's failed policies are leading our nation to failure. If Americans want to taste success and prosperity again, we need to elect a strong leader who embraces policies we know will be successful. A strong leader will lead our nation to strength again, and I believe Herman Cain is the strongest of the field of candidates from which we have to choose.
Cain is a supporter of the Fair Tax, which I believe is the exact system we need implemented in order to increase revenues to the government while at the same time decreasing every American's tax load! The Fair Tax must get passed through Congress and without a strong and supportive leader as president leading the charge and casting the vision on how to accomplish that, we will not see the day the Fair Tax Bill gets signed. However, I firmly believe Herman Cain is able to lead us to that great day. Recently, the release of his 9-9-9 plan sealed the deal for me. This bold move provides a mechanism to bring all "tax reform" sides together and unite under the purpose of creating a better tax system and a better economy. One that does not penalize success and that treats all people fairly! This plan is an example of the kind of leadership we so desperately need. Not just someone who can read a teleprompter, but someone who will actively engage in bringing solutions to the problems we as a nation experience.
It is my plan to update this blog every few days with my view of the news from the campaign trail as I try to do my best to convince others that we need Herman Cain in the White House in January 2013! Visit http://www.hermancain.com/ for more info on Cain's policies and campaign!
