He says he ran for president in 2000- did anybody hear that leaf hit bottom in the Grand Canyon?

Herman Cain's a right-wing radio host; a former fast food executive; burgers and pizza); a friend of Joe the Plumber; and a man who calls himself The Hermanator, and he is thinking about being the second cancer-surviving presidential nominee of the Republican Party in a row:

Cain is many things, including an African American Republican, a former CEO of Godfather's Pizza, a cancer survivor -- and the host of a popular radio show in Georgia. Recently, a "Draft Cain" movement has emerged, with the goal of drafting Cain into a presidential run. According to Doug Deal, the creator of the "Draft Cane" Facebook page, this is a grassroots effort to "try to help convince him that there's support out there for him."
What makes Herman Cain an especially potent force is his charisma, and the fact that his supporters don't just admire him -- they love him. "He has the ability to really have the 'wow' factor," says Maurice Atkinson, another leader of the Draft Cain movement.
