Herman Cain Loves Big Government

Herman Cain loves big government (after it leaves the US border).

Herman Cain doesn't focus much on foreign policy, and with good reason: his beliefs thereon conflict with his image as a pro-small government candidate.

When asked about the war in Libya, Herman Cain did a proverbial Rick Santorum impression and said that going to war there was right but that Obama hadn't done it in the right way--that Obama hadn't made the objective clear. This is another way of saying: "I also support Obama's unconstitutional war, but I'm going to try to get you dunderheads to believe that my policy would be substantially different from Obama's." Would a Cain-led no fly zone be all that different from an Obama one? Could it? Probably not, but we shouldn't have gone in to Libya regardless of policy employed there. Ron Paul, Gary Johnson, and Michele Bachmann are the only candidates to have condemned the unconstitutional Libya war; Gingrich was for it before he was against it. Romney seems to be itching for war according to his latest book.

Herman Cain has openly sought to affiliate himself with the raging globalist Henry Kissenger. Kissenger is the poster child for big government intervention in the form of the military, and perhaps no figure better represents the forces of internationalism than him. Hermain Cain's 9-9-9 plan may seem anti-establishment, but when it comes to foreign policy, he might as well be the neo-con Rick Santorum.
