Purdue University (M.S.) |signature = |website = (HermanCain.com ) |footnotes = }} Herman Cain (born December 13, 1945) is an American author, business executive, radio host, syndicated columnist, and Tea Party activist from Georgia.〔(【引用サイトリンク】author=Mark Memmot )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】author= Diana Furchtgott-Roth )〕 He was a candidate for the 2012 U.S. Republican Party presidential nomination.〔 Cain grew up in Georgia and graduated from Morehouse College in 1967 with a Bachelor of Science in Mathematics.〔Green, Joshua (Herman Cain, the GOP Wild Card ), ''The Atlantic''〕 Cain pursued graduate studies at Purdue University and graduated with a Master of Science in Computer Science in 1971, while also working full-time for the U.S. Department of the Navy.〔 In 1977, he joined Pillsbury Company in Minneapolis where he later became vice president. During the 1980s, his success as a business executive at Burger King prompted Pillsbury Company to appoint him as chairman and CEO of Godfather's Pizza, in which capacity he served from 1986 to 1996. Cain was chairman of the Federal Reserve Bank of Kansas City Omaha Branch from 1989 to 1991. He was deputy chairman, from 1992 to 1994, and chairman, from 1995 to 1996, of the Federal Reserve Bank of Kansas City.〔 In 1995, Cain was appointed by Newt Gingrich to the Kemp Commission, and was a senior economic adviser to the Bob Dole presidential campaign. Cain became the CEO of the National Restaurant Association, in which he served as president and CEO from 1996 to 1999.〔 During the presidency of Bill Clinton, Cain publicly opposed the Clinton health care plan of 1993, about which he questioned the president at a town hall meeting. Cain has served as a member of the board of directors of several companies, including Aquila, Inc., Nabisco, Whirlpool, Reader's Digest, and AGCO.〔 In May 2011, Cain announced his presidential candidacy. By the fall, his proposed 9–9–9 tax plan and debating performances had made him the Republican front-runner and he briefly led President Obama in the polls. In November, however, his campaign struggled with allegations of sexual misconduct – all denied by Cain – and he announced its suspension on December 3.〔Robin Abcarian, (Herman Cain prepares announcement on campaign's future ) ''Los Angeles Times'' December 2, 2011〕 At the end of 2011, the Pew Research Center reported that, of the Republican candidates, "Herman Cain was the most covered candidate" during the year. On May 15, 2012, Cain endorsed Mitt Romney. == Family and personal life == Herman Cain was born in Memphis, Tennessee, to Lenora (Davis) Cain, a cleaning woman and domestic worker, and Luther Cain Jr., who was raised on a farm and worked as a barber and janitor, as well as a chauffeur for Coca-Cola Company president Robert W. Woodruff. Cain has said that as he was growing up, his family was "poor but happy". Cain related that his mother taught him about her belief that "success was not a function of what you start out with materially, but what you start out with spiritually". His father worked three jobs to own his own home – something he achieved during Cain's childhood – and to see his two sons graduate. Cain grew up on the west side of Atlanta, Georgia, attending school and the Rev. Cameron M. Alexander's Antioch Baptist Church North in the neighborhood now known as The Bluff. Eventually Cain's father saved enough money and the family moved to a modest brick home on Albert Street in the Collier Heights neighborhood. He attended Archer (public) High School, graduating in 1963. Cain married Gloria Cain (née Etchison), of Atlanta, soon after her graduation from Morris Brown College in 1968.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Cain, Herman (1945–) )〕 His wife of 45 years is a homemaker, with experience as a teacher and a librarian.〔 The couple have two children and three grandchildren.〔 In 2006 Cain was diagnosed with Stage IV cancer in his colon and metastases to his liver and given a 30 percent chance of survival. Cain underwent surgery and chemotherapy following the diagnosis, and has since reported that he is in remission. Disclosures filed during his campaign in 2011 categorized Cain's wealth as of that time as being between $2.9 and $6.6 million, with Cain's income for both 2010 and 2011 combined being between $1.1 and $2.1 million. Cain also serves as an associate minister at Antioch Baptist Church North in Atlanta, which he joined at the age of 10. The church is part of the National Baptist Convention〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Antioch Baptist Church North : Atlanta, Georgia )〕 and is politically liberal and theologically conservative; the church's senior pastor, Rev. Cameron M. Alexander, does not share Cain's political philosophy.〔Marrapodi, Eric; Blake, John. ("The liberal church of Herman Cain" ). ''CNN''. October 18, 2011.〕〔Hallowell, Billy.
