Herman Cain: Wall St. protesters playing victim card



[ SOURCE ] Republican presidential candidate Herman Cain on Sunday accused anti-Wall Street protesters of playing the "victim card" - and suggested that those participating in protests nationwide against corporate greed and a lack of jobs are merely doing so out of "jealousy."

Cain, in an appearance on CBS' "Face the Nation," argued that the recent protests against the financial sector were "anti-American," and that they were meant to be "a distraction" from the Obama administration's "failed policies."

Cain also posited that the protesters were being "encouraged to get together" by "unions and certain union-related organizations."

"It's coordinated to create a distraction so people won't focus on the failed policies of this administration," he told host Bob Schieffer.
