You’ll Want to See the Video of Herman Cain Teaching America-Bashing College Hecklers a Lesson in American Exceptionalism

Former presidential candidate and CEO of Godfather’s Pizza Herman Cain took his message of economic prosperity to the University of Michigan last week where, perhaps not surprisingly, a number of students “booed” when Cain said we are living in the greatest country on Earth.

Speaking at a jobs forum on campus, Cain said: “Every time I run into someone who came here from another country, they always share with me their story, and reassert the fact that this is the greatest country in the world.”

“It’s not!” what sounded like at least two students shouted in protest.

As the crowd drowned out the hecklers with “boos” and a “U-S-A” chant, Cain launched into a fiery defense of his country:

If this is not the greatest country in the world, why is it that our economy is 25% of the world GDP?

If it’s not the greatest country in the world, why do we have more freedoms and liberties than anybody else…?

If it’s not the greatest country in the world, how is it that this nation was able to become the power that it is militarily and economically in the short 236-year history, relative to the history of the rest of the great nations in the world?

If it’s not the greatest country in the world, how is it possible to have a black man in the White House…?

If this is not the greatest country in the world, leave!

Here is video of Cain’s impromptu lesson in American exceptionalism:

  • I just got back from a trip to Tokyo, Hong Kong, Bangkok, Phuket and Singapore and every time I travel abroad I get reminded of how much harder many foreigners have to hustle and work to enjoy a decent standard of living and how SOME of what they have is FAR superior to what we have. It’s a shame because some 30 years ago we had EVERYTHING going for us.
    I spent my last days abroad with some of engineers in Singapore I had worked with over the last 5 years (the Singapore government sends over More..

  • I believe America still is the greatest country in the world. There is so many different cultures, climates, cities and rural areas to choose from.
    I've been to Germany, and its nice, and in some ways nicer. I actually felt safer in Germany but there are thousands of small villages in America where you can leave your keys in the car and not lock your doors.
    Overall....I think America has more to choose from.

  • You know a lot of you are typical, you think I might be a racist because I cant stand Obama, but I tell you for a fact-IF Herman Cain would be running for President-he would easily have my vote.

  • A black man in the whitehouse pffft, try getting a female atheist leader into power, yep that's what our leader here in Australia is. As for having 25% of the global GDP, if I go to a bank and borrow a ton of money then spend it in a store dont be surprised if one suddenly become their biggest customer.

  • "If it’s not the greatest country in the world, why do we have more freedoms and liberties than anybody else…?"

    Ill remember that next time I see a drone fly over my house.
    Ill remember that next time my wife gets groped by the TSA.
    Ill remember that next time I hear of an America renditioned.
    Ill remember that next time I hear of an election being rigged.
    Ill remember that next time I read about illegal wiretaps by the FBI.
    If this is not the greatest country in the world, FIX IT More..
