managed to brainwash 81% of the american people into supporting that idea? >> the answer is yes. the democrats have succeeded at brainwashing a lot of the american people. first of all, taxing people more that make over $1 million isn't going to solve the problem. secondly, they have just taken class warfare to another level. when for decades you are telling the american people that we ought to take more from the rich in order to help pay off our debts but yet the debts don't get paid off, they're just playing the class warfare card. i would counter that, lawrence, with 50% of the taxpayers now pay 97% of the taxes. i think that's pretty fair already. >> mr. cain, you've also said in the past that african-americans have been brainwashed into voting for democrats.
