She deleted mine. The op's comment did not even say anything about the man.

Very sad. Another good man gone, at a time when we need more...not fewer.

May he RIP.

He was a former presidential candidate and highly respected. So sorry to hear about his death.

He was an American business executive and syndicated columnist. He grew up in Georgia and graduated from Morehouse College with a bachelor's degree in mathematics, graduated from Purdue College with a master's degree in computer science, and also was in the Navy full time.

He joined the Pillsbury company where he later became vice president. During the 80's, his success as a business executive at Burger King prompted Pillsbury to appointment as Chairman and CEO of Godfather's Pizza.

He was chairman of the Federal Reserve Bank of Kansas City Omaha Branch and also went on to be chairman of the Federal Reserve Bank of Kansas City. In 1995, he was appointed to the Kemp Commission, and in 1996 he served as a senior economic adviser to Bob Dole's presidential campaign. He was also President and CEO of the National Restaurant Association.

In May 2011 he announced his presidential candidacy. He proposed the 9-9-9 tax plan and became a serious contender. But in November of that year, his campaign faced allegations of sexual misconduct, denied by Cain, and he suspended his bid for president the following month. But he remained heavily involved in politics.

Thank you for alerting us, @JillyMarie . Oh, I am so terribly sorry-- I didn't even know he was ill. I enjoyed his spunk, and the grit that it took for him to achieve the way he did. An American success story, not without trial and difficulty, but he persevered.

Condolences to his family. RIP.

Then I will. He had a master's degree in computer science from Purdue University and was an executive with Burger King and Godfathers' Pizza..

Age 74. I read that in 2006 he had Stage 4 cancer that had spread to his liver, had successful chemo and has been in remission ever since then. So perhaps that was a big underlying condition factor.

I enjoyed listening to him. He seemed to be a very smart and good-natured man. He rose to many high-level jobs during his life including, if I'm not mistaken being head of Burger King restaurant chain.

May he RIP, gone too soon at age 74.

I'm very sorry to hear of Mr. Cain's death. He was a cancer survivor, and especially after losing my mother to cancer my heart goes out to everyone who lives and dies with this terrible disease.

Thanks. It sounds so odd to me, especially when it is a stand-alone word. When someone dies, they died.
