Republican Presidential Candidate Herman Cain Doesn’t Want You to Know About His Pokémons

Kotaku - You've gotta hand it to Republican Presidential Candidate Herman Cain. One minute the guy is proposing a three-page limit on bills in Washington, then he's calling Jon Stewart a racist, and now... well, now he's breaking out the inadvertent Pokémon references.

Are you saying all us Afro Americans look alike?

or

Are you saying that Terry Crews likes Pokemon?

I love how republicans are trying to prove they are not racist by using him as a poster. A black republican. Talk about a contradiction.

I can remember a day when skin color and gender didnt mean a damn thing to politics. Sure they were all white, but the focus as on credentials and not external appearance.

DrRichtofen4630d ago (Edited 4630d ago )

What do peoples political views have to do with racism? Calling all republicans racist is plain ignorant just as calling all democrats racist is too.

"I can remember a day when skin color and gender didnt mean a damn thing to politics."

^Hey look, another contradiction!

LMAO, dude YOUR the one making external appearance a big deal.

nopunctuation,

I love how stupid fucking kids who can't vote, don't pay taxes and more than likely don't even live here, presume that all of us blacks here in the states are dumb enough to be democrats.

How's that working out for my people? Being a democrat has done SOOOO much.

I'm a black repbulican. It's only a contradiction to stupid fucks like you.

I hate this fucking site.

@mendicant

Yet to have seen the benefits.

What makes it not a contradiction?

So because a black man decides to speak he's automatically a poster for all republicans?

StarWarsShadows4630d ago

There are black Republicans, just as there are black Democrats...though more seem to be Democrat than Republican.

a black republican hes so confused

mendicant4630d ago

No, he's smart. Confused is the multi-tude of clowns who think being a demcrat or a liberal is going to improve your situation.

SaiyanFury4630d ago

Yes, I've been following Mr. Cain for a while now and he's far from confused. He's a very smart and well spoken man who has turned entire companies around from bankruptcy to black line profits. If I could vote as a US citizen, he'd get mine. And I have no political affiliation, Republican or Democrat. Both parties are screwed up in the head.

POKEMAN!!!???

Seems like coincidence.

mendicant4630d ago

N4G is a site full of European haters and racists. I am a black republican and having a site that suports artcles like this (or some of the comments) sickens me.

Fuck N4G. Racist pricks.

adamant7154630d ago

I don't think they're really racist.. mainly ignorant and close-minded.

vickers5004630d ago

European haters? I personally haven't seen any of that in my time here on n4g (and I've been here for a few years).

I have however seen quite a lot of hatred towards Americans.

But yeah, n4g is full of children, not much you can do about that.

mendicant4628d ago

That was my point vickers...European haters, i.e., Europeans that hate on Americans.

vickers5004628d ago

Oh. Thought that you meant people that hate ON Europeans.

Tuxedo_Mask4630d ago (Edited 4630d ago )

This article is full of assumptions and really states nothing concrete. It implies that Herman Cain gave a quote that he attributed to a "poet" that was actually from a song from the Pokemon movie released in 2000. They don't take into consideration that Mr. Cain isn't a shut-in and may have heard the quote from someone on his staff or even someone he met on the street.

Regardless, it doesn't matter if he got the quote from the Pokemon movie or not, although he should have given it proper reference if he knew where it was from. I was expecting the article to talk about how he is a fan of Pokemon, and anyone else expecting a story like that should save themselves the trouble of reading another bad Kotaku article.

Interesting article, it doesn’t surprise me because some people are better all a-rounders than others. Regardless of fame or how good they are in their specialty.

This is why I feel like the live action stuff in Alan Wake 2 especially is pretty bad. It also looks really cheap and amateurish.
