What You Need To Know: Former CEO of Godfather's Pizza and former deputy chairman and chairman of the board of directors for the Federal Reserve Bank of Kansas City, Cain makes for a surprising contender after winning the P5/Florida straw poll where Perry was expected to win. He also ran in 2000, but we all know how that turned out.
Factor which may influence his standing in the polls: If it weren't for the fact that he won the Florida straw poll, we probably still wouldn't know who he is.
