Apparently the only reason Herman Cain is running for president is because God told him to. He didn't want to do it himself, but I guess he wasn't comfortable with saying "no" to God. Who was the last president who claimed to speak to God and get instructions from God? Oh, yeah, George W. Bush.

Look how well God did with that president.

The Republican candidate told CBN News that's why he believes "God's been in this from the beginning."

Cain said that when he felt God calling him to run for president, he resisted just as Moses did after being called by God to lead the Hebrews out of Egypt.

Like Moses, Cain says he told God, "You've got the wrong person. You can't be talking about me."

Cain told CBN News that it took a lot of those "conversations with God" to overcome his reluctance to seek the presidency.

Does any Republican run for public office anymore simply because they want to serve or think they can do a good job? I'm not so sure because it seems like every presidential candidate was told to run by God. So, is God hedging his bets by getting a lot of people in the race in the expectation that at least one won't be a total fool? Or does God keep changing his mind, picking a new candidate every few weeks?

I don't know, but it doesn't speak well of either or the Republican Party, does it?
