From Bloomberg: https://www.bloomberg.com/news/arti...onsider-herman-cain-for-federal-reserve-board

Herman Cain, the former pizza company executive who ran for the Republican presidential nomination in 2012, is being considered by President Donald Trump for a seat on the Federal Reserve Board.

Cain, 73, was in the White House on Wednesday, according to people familiar with the matter. Two seats on the Fed board are vacant, but nominating Cain raises the prospect of a Senate confirmation hearing focused on the sexual harassment and infidelity accusations that ended his presidential campaign.

The people declined to be identified discussing the matter because Trump hasn't made a decision. Cain was also under consideration for other possible top government posts.

Cain, the former chief executive of Godfather's Pizza Inc. and an ordained Baptist minister, attracted national attention when he turned a forum on health care reform into a debate with President Bill Clinton in 1994. He's a graduate of Morehouse College and received a master's degree from Purdue.
Cain could be considered for other top government posts, the people said. Cain declined to comment on whether Trump is considering him for a job.

This is the guy who wanted a 9% corporate tax rate and quoted a Pokemon movie verbatim when he conceded his campaign

And we all thought he was the worst we'd see out of the Republican primaries

Physically hurts.

The administration got rid of one of the top economists in the world.

Working on that also.
God I both hate and love Herman Cain. Hate him cause he is a Republican and a piece of shit. But man the dude is entertaining. Unlike everyone else in the Republican party dude actually has charisma.

Pizza for government sounds like a trump move. Maybe the CEO of his favorite burger chain will get hired next

"I believe these words came from the Pokémon movie," Cain said during a speech in Atlanta. "Life can be a challenge. Life can seem impossible. It's never easy when there's so much on the line. But you and I can make a difference. There's a mission just for you and me....Just look inside and you will find just what you can do."
