Herman Cain’s candidacy is currently outpacing such high profile candidates as Newt Gingrich, Michele Bachmann, Ron Paul, and Tim Pawlenty in growth and support, registering third in overall popularity among Republican voters in a recent Gallup poll. Here, in this memoir, Cain answers his most often-asked question: Who is Herman Cain?
Growing up poor in the segregated south, Cain describes how he pulled himself out of the depths of poverty and became successful the old-fashioned way. Through college, a stint as a Navy mathematician, working at the Pillsbury company and becoming its youngest ever vice president, and eventually serving as the CEO of Godfather’s Pizza, Herman Cain relied on self-motivation and determination to get where he is today. His strong beliefs and values have helped him in his career and personal life, and he reveals his self-made secrets in this memoir. Motivated by his children, grandchildren, and his many supporters, Cain announced his candidacy in May 2011, and the nation watches as he joins the growing number of Republicans duking it out for their party’s nomination in 2012.
Herman Cain was raised in an impoverished family in segregated Georgia. Inspired by the work ethic and character of his parents, Herman attended Morehouse College and then earned his Master’s from Purdue University. He returned to Atlanta to work for the Coca-Cola Company, then Pillsbury, where he soon became vice president. From there, he went on to become the CEO of the near-bankrupt Godfather’s Pizza chain, which he returned to solvency in just 14 months.
As head of the National Restaurant Association, Herman began working with business leader all across America. He is the chairman of the Board of Directors of the Federal Reserve Bank of Kansas City, and most recently hosted a radio talk show, “The Herman Cain Show,” which he gave up to pursue the presidency.
