Cain: God told me to run for President

But Michele Bachmann got the call from God, too. Does this mean God can't make up His mind? Or that he wants one of them to be President and one Vice President, but didn't specify that important information when he first called? Or that there are actually TWO DIFFERENT GODS? Or maybe MANY DIFFERENT GODS?, because most Christians know the Mormons can't possibly be talking to the same God they pray to. And then there are the Muslims and the Buddhists and the Hindus and their Gods....good heavens, it gets awfully complicated, doesn't it? Ya' gotta' love Cain's profound "humility," though, comparing himself to Moses when he replied to God, "You've got the wrong man, Lord."

I think Cain is right. He is definitely the wrong man.

HERMAN CAIN: GOD CONVINCED ME TO RUN FOR PRESIDENT

Former Godfather's Pizza CEO Herman Cain says that God told him to run for president, National Journal reports.

"I prayed and prayed and prayed," Cain told about 100 members of the Georgia Young Republicans in Atlanta on Saturday. "I'm a man of faith, I had to do a lot of praying for this one, more praying than I'd ever done before in my life. And when I finally realized that it was God saying that this is what I needed to do, I was like Moses. 'You've got the wrong man, Lord. Are you sure?'"

Cain isn't the only Republican candidate who says God convinced them to run, however.

In May, before officially announcing her candidacy, Michele Bachmann (R-Minn.) said that she felt a "calling" to seek the GOP nomination.

"I've had this calling and tugging on my heart that this is the right thing to do," Bachmann said.

In June, in an appearance on CBS' "Face the Nation," Bachmann reiterated her comments about God telling her to run for political office.

"Did God tell you He wanted you to run for the Minnesota State Senate, or something like that?" host Bob Schieffer asked.

"I prayed about that, as well," Bachmann said. "And that's really what that means. It means that I have a sense of assurance about the direction I think that God is speaking into my heart that I should go."
