Herman Cain Ad (Please respond by Friday, November 4)

This ad has been getting a lot of attention in the media for its simplicity.  Other than the recent Rick Perry ad in Iowa, it like the other candidate ones, has been only online. Of course, while Cain's ad is being ridiculed, he is ahead in the polls.  The link is a nice one as it explains how the poll was done and what the questions are. Take a look at these polls numbers from last week to help your response. What are your thoughts on this video? Helpful or harmful to Herman Cain? What type of chances do you give Herman Cain at this moment for winning the Republican nomination?

Occupying Wall Street (Please respond by Thursday, October 13)

After talking about the Wall Street demonstrations last week in class, I thought this might make for an interesting blog discussion this week. I have included an article from CNN, which I would like all of you to take a look at. Do you think these protests have any support in America or is it all just a waste?  Does this movement have the ability to sweep across the United States and bring change to the world of business? Could you ever see yourself participating in a demonstration similar to this?
