Herman Cain: I'm Not Hyphenated

Race card: Rejected.

"By the way, it's okay to call me black. I am an American, black, conservative, an A-B-C. It's okay, I'm not hyphenated."

"He [Obama] wasn't supposed to be the president of black people, he was supposed to be the president of the entire country. So I don't look so much at how he has served the black community in this country, I am evaluating the lack of effectiveness of his policies across the board. It's not about what color he is, it's about the lack of leadership."
