Herman Cain, a business leader and radio host; and Tea Party Patriot co-founder Jenny Beth Martin have joined the roster of speakers for the Virginia Tea Party Convention.
Organizers have invited about two dozen speakers, mostly prominent conservatives, to address the convention Oct. 8-9 at the Greater Richmond Convention Center.
Cain, former president and chairman of Godfather's Pizza, sought Republican nomination for U.S. Senate from Georgia in 2004. He hosts an Atlanta-based radio program.
Martin, who lives in suburban Atlanta, helped launch the Tea Party Patriots organization in early 2009. This year Time Magazine named her to the "Time 100" list of "people who most affect our world."
Other keynote speakers who have confirmed so far are former CNN anchor Lou Dobbs; Bishop E.W. Jackson Sr., founder of Exodus Faith
Ministries International and president of a group that promotes Judeo-Christian values; political strategist Dick Morris, and John Fund, a conservative author and columnist for The Wall Street Journal.
Confirmed speakers for a forum on national policy are Attorney General Ken Cuccinelli, former Gov. and U.S. Sen. George Allen, R-Va., and Reps. Ron Paul, R-Texas and Steve King, R-I
