I won't argue that, and to be fair to him, he has not been in politics before, so the fact that he is shaky on concepts like religious freedom for Muslims is more understandable from him than from either of them.  I think he has caught on, and is unlikely to make that kind of mistake again.  My point is just that he may now have reached a place where he won't be able to get away with such mistakes, so he had better buckle down and do some studying.[/quote]

With regard to Cain's statement about Muslims, he eventually met with American Muslims and -- to his credit -- listened to what they had to say. Also, to his credit, he admitted making mistakes in his statements. It is very rare to hear any politician admit to being wrong. I don't expect Cain to be anything more than a flash in the pan. The primary process is not for amateurs and once real voting starts, he will disappear from the scene. But, if he were to become a serious contender, I'd look forward to hearing all of those who shriek endlessly about Obama's lack of experience being a problem reconcile Cain's lack of even basic experience in politics.

This silly point is beneath you, Mr. Steele.  Cain was the CEO of a business and was on the board of the Kansas City federal reserve.  (At least if Wikipedia is not lying to me.)   Obama's experience before being President was nowhere close to as significant.   Cain is vastly more prepared than Obama was.  [/quote]
