mr. herman's name to it. a lot of people do not know that even though he really spent most of his lifetime trying to bring cargo ships to san francisco bay area and throughout the west coast, the last years of his life he actually focused on cruise ships. because he understood the transition and the changes that were occurring at this port. and that, although containerships would not necessarily come here because of the impediment of the railroad, that indeed, we could be a cruise niche, and he spent a lot of time even advocating for changes to the passenger services act, federal legislation that to this day impedes this port from maximizing on cruise opportunities. so i am certainly thankful for this moment and this opportunity, and as a final comment, i would add that we certainly hope that this cruise terminal truly reflect jimmy herman's spirit and his passion, which was to make sure that the maritime facilities provided jobs for his dear union, the ilwu, and that we do not take shortcuts are cut costs or

republican presidential debate let's continue on with the candidates tonight here we have in our company mr herman cain michele bachmann and rick santorum now first of all i want to question you about the president president obama currently has been hailed as a foreign policy success on the economy might not be doing so well he took out osama bin laden he took out on we're all aki and he took out moammar gadhafi not only that but he's also winding down the both the wars in iraq and in afghanistan so how would you compete with that would you follow on in obama's footsteps if you were to become president or do you reverse any of his foreign policy actions bring people back from the dead perhaps. i think he's making a terrible mistake here we're losing the iraq war and i i happen to know for a fact from inside sources that it wasn't bin laden it wasn't obama who killed bin laden dick cheney was all not a helicopter with those navy seals. what we need to do is bring back. i was speaking hurry up hurry up there you got to the actions of evil iran syria and san francisco and we'll take care of this prob

herman cain and newt gingrich, how is the media treating them. joining us from miami, the purveyor of bernard goldberg.com mr. goldberg. also herman cain, here is what he said when he suspended his campaign. >> these unproved allegations continue to be spined in the media. and in the court of public opinion so as to create a cloud of doubt over me and this campaign and my family. that spin hurts. >> bill: what about that, bernie? what do you think? >> well, i don't think herman cain had a media problem. he had a woman problem. he had more skeltons jumping out of closets than a haunted house on halloween. i mean, what was the media supposed to do? he he was a leading candidate on a major party running for president of the united states. the allegations came one after another. it's legitimate number. could you imagine if the media ignored the story and he somehow won the nomination? in this came out before the election. conservatives would be yelling that the media kept it under wraps and hurt their guy. i think that the media i'm sure there are exceptions but by and large they played fair with herman cain. >>

16%, and congresswoman michele bachmann and former candidate herman cain got 8%, and the rest of the field is behind them. and that poll, mr. chairman, of course, was before herman cain announced yesterday that he was dropping out. i guess it showed what we all suspected. that is, his campaign was actually imploding. so now, he's gone. were his problems becoming a distraction that took attention away from the other candidates? >> well, i don't know if they took attention away from the other candidates. he had to make a decision for himself which is, look, the polling isn't going in the right direction. >> schieffer: are you glad he did? >> "i can't raise any money." i'm indifferent. i really don't care whether he stayed in or he got out. it doesn't bother me at all. i think the real issue here facing america is how we're going to get our country back on track, and how we're going to get a president in white house who actually makes a promise and keeps a promise. i think that is what americans in this country are starving for. >> schieffer: let me ask you this. this kind of sums up this whole business. one week it's herman

nominaing contest was going to get less weird now that herman cain dropped out, welcome to the new normal. as we reported that he would on friday night, mr. cain officially suspended his campaign for the presidency on saturday afternoon. the root word in this case of suspended is ended. if you were at all persuaded by my thesis herman cain has been not so much a candidate but rather an art project about being a candidate, the way mr. cain bowed out will not disabuse you. it was described by his staff as the opening of a new campaign office in georgia, a little like doing a big ceremonial ribbon cutting at an eviction. immediately before mr. cain took to the podium to announce he was ending the campaign, a featured speaker asked people to volunteer at the new campaign office. mr. cain announced his campaign was ending, he also announced a new herman cain-related thing was just beginning. the banner awkwardly dropping behind him to reveal a new organization called thecainsolutions.com. what's that? unclear. that website is still under construction at this moment. "the new york times" reporting the website was registered the day before mr.
