Cool (Herman Cain): Sorry, I Just Don't Believe This New Woman

Nope.

I'm sorry...I'm not buying it.

Something sounds fishy about this new woman's story.

Herman Cain has killed his credibility with Black people(Black people are poor because they want to be) and now that another woman--another white woman...mind you, has come forward; I wonder if Mr. Cain is going to infer again, that no, racism is not part of it.

By being a Republican?
How does a black man with a black wife who's a black minister who grew up in the South during the Civil Rights era lose credibility with black people?
Especially when the other guy grew up in Hawaii and hardly experienced any sort of racism.

Herman Cain lost credibility with many Black Americans when he stated, in his words: "Black people are poor because some of them want to be." Really? And he soon became popular amongst the Tea Party.

A lot of white people really believe this about Black people in general and his comments is a buffer to those who don't feel accountable in regards to racism and how it has impacted Blacks socially as well as economically.

White privilege is not a myth.

My hat goes off to any Black person that achieves success in this country, but Cain ignorantly isulted the Black community in order to ingratiate himself to whites in the Republican Party.

With these allegations now coming forward; he had the audacity to infuse that racism is behind it.

Am I missing something?

So what do those same white people think about "poor whites"?
That they are cursed? That the albino man kept them down?
Are you saying they think poor blacks are lazy but poor whites are unlucky?

And why is that statement more hurtful than Obama going to a black church on Father's Day to say black men are messing up as fathers?
Is it that you think Obama is 100% right and Cain is 100% wrong?

His comments.

Basically, he feels that Black people are at fault for their own problems. Racism is not the issue; but self-determination.

I agree, but also, the public school system was not designed to help Black and minority children succeed.

Look at the statistics...

the entire system is not design for that Darling

they don't educate children anymore, they just train them, for a specific task which is why many of them nowadays are just one dimensional and can no longer hold a conversation about a general topics

has nothing to do with race, using the same statistics you could saying minorities are not as smart. dont allow race to cloud your judgement, like captaine stated the schools are broken.

they should applaud him and rejoice that he goes before the country and use the AA community struggles as a lynch pin for his political pro elites stance.
