Herman Cain finally admits he pilfered a line from Pokemon 2000

[Valwin]

"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."

That's a line that Herman Cain has been using in his now-defunct run for the USA Presidential nomination. We reported in the past that this line was from the movie Pokemon 2000, but Cain kept saying that it was from a poet. Finally, now that Cain is stepping aside from the race, he's credited the line properly. The victory was short and sweet, with Cain stating, "I believe these words came from the Pokémon movie."

Thar's just dandy, haha

 

[Jakob95]

LMAO. Wow there politicians are retarded these days. I guess he was too embarrassed.

 

[s4mid4re]

He just didn't want to admit he's a pokemon fanboy.

 

[Deleted-236924]

That will be the coolest of the stories, bro.

 

[smile72]

Finally he admits it.

I don't see much of a "haha got you" worth in this. Some of my state officials repeatedly reuse speeches from previous members, not even altering them, acting as if it were all their own work.

That's seems like a much bigger issue.

He should be president just for quoting that xD Pokemon FTW!

 

[yuyuyup]

Now he aughta fess up to lying about fighting in a war

 

[Hyro-Sama]

YES! FUCK YES!

 

[YayMii]

I'm pretty sure that him stating it was from Pokémon would turn away people. Smart move IMO.

 

[Gahars]

And he finally admits to it now that it no longer matters.

Still, if he was going to "borrow" lines from Pokemon of all places, he should have just gone buck wild with it ("As President, I would want to be the very best, like no one ever was..."). Who knows; it could have energized the youth vote.

 

[awssk8er]

I don't know much about politics... but the fact that he quoted Pokemon 2000 makes me want to vote for him.

 

[spotanjo3]

He is a liar, huh ? Then he is not worthy to be president at all. I think that he is hide something else as well. The presidents are always the corruption of all. What a shame!

Half of you don't know how horrible this man is as a politician. Don't vote for him if he ever decides to run again for anything. Don't.

 

[yuyuyup]
