Herman Cain Addresses Clear Lake Tea Party - "Stupid People are Ruining America"

Herman Cain addresses over 3,000 Conservative voters at the Clear Lake Tea Party Rally on October 25th, 2011. He addressed foreign policy, rebuilding the economy, rebuilding the tax code, energy independence, illegal immigration and national security.

After asking the Tea Party members to stay informed, Cain boldly said "Stupid people are ruining America." The audience of Tea Party members responded with a loud ovation indicating their approval of his message.

Cain opened his remarks at the rally by praising Tea Party Patriots as people that "love the United States of America." He said, "The tragedy of life does not lie in not reaching your goals. The tragedy lies in not having goals to reach for." He continued, "The American Dream has been hijacked. But the good news is "We can take it back!"

Following is Cain's entire message to the Clear Lake Tea Party:

Cain defined several crises for America. "We have an economic crisis, an entitlement spending crisis, a energy crisis, an illegal immigration crisis, a moral crisis, and a foggy foreign policy crisis." He said, "The biggest crisis we have is a severe deficiency of leadership in the White House!"

Cain's remarks played well to the large crowd gathered to hear a variety of speakers and candidates for office. Other speakers that evening included US Senate candidate, Lela Pittenger, candidate for US House CD 14 Robert Gonzales, candidate for US House CD 24 Heidi Thiess, Texas House District 129 candidate Mary Huls and the founder of Raging Elephants, Apostle Claver.
