That in itself is reacist. Look at the person and their ability to be President not their race or gender. With that being said certainly Ben Carson can be President. What makes a lawyer any more qualified than a physician. Certainly the current elected officials and their supposed experience has not gotten the job done. We need a "PERSON" that is highly intelligent, exudes common sense, relies on advisory consultation, and has tremendous leadership skills. Ben Carson has all these qualities no matter what his race or gender may be.

It is OK for a black man to run for president.
Which Obama did.
In addition to being unqualified and managerially incompetent he is a BLACK (racist based) president!!

Not in liberal change in h$$l. Only in the Democratic Party can someone with NO experience be electable. And the zombie loons fall in line and fall off the cliff.

When one mentions the ethnicity of a candidate, it is automatically assumed he is being racist. The poster above was making a comment, no necessarily racist, even though race was the subject. You can not use the term "racist" for any comment that does not meet with your approval.

That said, I do believe that America is going to be "gun shy" after the disaster of the worst failed administration in history, which was run by the first black president in history. Carson would have found it easier to circumvent that ethnicity barrier if not for Obama's failed reign. I believe that many will not vote for Carson, not because they don't respect him, but because they are afraid of another racist/bigoted reign such as Obama's. Obama was/is very much partial to the black minority, and opposed our law enforcement, and endorsed radical demonstrators. Obama was blatantly biased toward and in favor of the black community regardless of whether they were right or wrong. Most of the time that he endorsed their behavior, they were wrong. That in itself could make a voter "gun shy."

For those who may not understand my post about a black president think about something. It was a white president that wanted to stop mistreatment of the black man(


Lincoln) but it was a black president that just a few years destroyed all the gains of equality that was achieved that took 100 years. With the situation where we are now another black president if he would be good or bad would continue the destruction of race relations in this country.

Stupid ?

You mean like claiming you landed in Bosnia under gun fire but actually you didn't ?

Or you mean like claiming when the Lewinsky scandal was breaking that it was a vast right wing conspiracy and untrue ?

Or do you mean like the numerous lies told to the Benghazi committee for which she is taking a "victory lap" ?

Oh, you said "stupid things", not LIES...sorry my bad !!! But are not lies stupid things ?

Nah, not for folks like Clinton. Her supporters will go to the wall for her no matter how many lies she tells.

Carson is a good man. He is more qualified than Obama for the job. He does not seem divisive. He is a moderate conservative, not right wing. He is very diplomatic in many cases and would probably be a great statesman, if given some time. He would need an experienced VP, such as Rubio. He would also need an above average staff with a lot of savvy. Could he make it? Yes, better than Obama. But, Obama already had a chip on his shoulder when he started. And, he hired a bunch of losers to support him.

Benny won't be elected- he won't even win the nomination. But, not because of his color but because the man is a blithering idiot.

He has no position on any issues and half the time he makes absolutely no sense. Much like Trump.

Both Benny and Trump have much appeal to the low information Con voter.

"a blithering idiot"? Have you ever heard the man speak? You may not agree with him but he's extremely intelligent, well spoken, and very thoughtful. I suggest you take a look in the mirror before pointing fingers about other low information voters.

I do not believe he would be a black president.

I agree with you on this statement. When I read the OP I was astonished that people still think like this. I'm aware he is a black man but i literally didn't give that one iota of consideration as to whether he would earn my vote or not. Do I agree with all his positions, no. I do have him in my top 3 however. I still have Rubio as my personal top choice.

Guess we'll see how it all turns out. The only certainty in this whole thing is it will be interesting with unforeseen twists and turns along the way.

Homosexuality is a choice.
America is like Nazi Germany.
When asked about the debt limit he clearly had no idea what that meant.

The guy is weird and clearly uninformed.

Sooo, if he doesn't lie to you and promise you an Obama Utopia, you think he is an idiot? You liberals are so needy. Please feel free to give us an example of his "he makes absolutely no sense." And yet, why should I be surprised? After all, you are quite content with Hilary telling you that a video caused a massacre. You are quite content with her telling the country that she is going to be a president of ALL the people, and then turn around and tell us that Republicans are her enemy. And you are quite content with allowing hackers access to Top Secret material. Why should we be surprised that you would call an intelligent and skilled surgeon, a "blithering idiot." You really should go back to school. I think we all know who really IS the "blithering idiot."

Well I can't help but notice Ben Carson is a black man and that he grew up in a black community and that his experiences shaped his thinking and beliefs. Fortunately for Ben Carson he had good role models. Contrast Obama who gravitated to radicals and an occupation whose main method of leverage is to divide.

Carson has shown like Thomas Sowell, Jason Riley and other successful black leaders that they do not possess a victim mentality like Obama. Carson clearly demonstrates that he would be a uniter that he is intelligent ,that he is a thinker, that he has common sense, that he would surround himself with highly capable people. and the coup d'etat he is not an attorney. We have had far too long too many attorneys in The Executive and Legislative Branches who have papered us to the point of suffocation with regulations, rules etc all way too complex and so voluminous that even the most gifted get lost in the reading to wit Obamacare and Dodd-Frank,etc

I have not pick a favorite yet but have whittled down my list and Carson is still on it.

I really don't mind that you don't like the guy, but for you to put out there things you consider fact when it is simply is fabrication I do take issue. Like I said already, do I agree with every thing he says and every one of his positions? No I do not. But it's refreshing to here someone tell you what they are thinking and not what they think will get them elected.

Undecided here also but leaning toward Rubio. I keep waiting until "next week" and keep looking at him and Bush, but think Bush would be under attack based on his name, as will Clinton, but I like Rubio at this point.

No, Ben Carson could NOT make it as President. He may be an excellent doctor but certainly would not be a good President.

Carson has absolutely no governmental experience. That is required to work in Washington! You have to know inner workings in order to get things accomplished.

A poster said Carson would surround himself with good advisors. Chances are that the advisors would be the same Tea Party reactionary caliber as himself - not good.

Carson would be very ineffective. No business experience like Don Trump has nor like Herman Cain had. Both of those would be so much better than Carson. Yes, I know Cain is not a candidate.

Carson has said his main objective would be to scrap Affordable Care. He has offered NO alternative.

Your opinion that he would not make a good president.
I have no problem if he surrounded himself with TP members, but I doubt he would. Even if he did, he is the boss, not them.
You are entitled to your opinion, but compare him with Obama and see which one would come out on top. Obama is divisive. Carson is not. Obama considers Christians to be the enemy. Carson IS a Christian. Look at how Carson handled Trump in the last debate. He led Trump like you would a child. Carson is smart and witty. Carson is easily liked. Obama had no life experience. Carson does. Obama is stupid. Carson is smart.

As far as scrapping Obamacare, who else would be better to provide an alternative than a doctor?

I might have talked myself into voting for him.

And here's a couple more really stupid things he's said. He is a creationist and thinks evolution is a myth, and he hopes God will intervene to expose the truth about Obamacare. He prays for that. And "The power of God " is behind his presidential campaign. What a Fruitcake. Yikes.

Well, that part is true. There is no evidence to the contrary. Besides, there's nothing wrong with him saying that, and he is a doctor so I figure he is better qualified than you to make that statement.

The rest of the supposed quotes you indicated, are taken out of context and you know it. You are trying to justify putting your endorsement on Hilary the criminal. Kind of hard to defend her, when she is her own worst enemy.

It's all a matter of opinion. In my opinion, Trump is a Democrat. He wants to socialize health care, increase taxes, etc. But, he is a better choice than Hilary by a long ways. But, he won't see my vote unless he can get the nomination. Otherwise, I have several possibles in my line up.

And what I said about Obama is not lies. Read his books and see for yourself. You do know how to check out a library book, don't you? I have them both on the computer. Obama is a racist, he is divisive and he is a socialist. He was raised in a Muslim environment and school. He has a communist mentor, a domestic terrorist mentor, and a socialist billionaire mentor. He says things that no other president would or has said in the past. He is a weak leader, and he can't vacate the White House fast enough for me.

Evolution can not be proved, but evidence of creation exists. So, there is nothing wrong with what he said. ALL Christians are creationists, or they aren't Christians. That leaves you, a non-believer in the minority.

For the sake of argument, I will agree that having homosexual tendencies is not a choice. However, acting on those tendencies is definitely "absolutely a choice". So, maybe Ben Carson was correct after all.

It is quite comforting to know we have such people on this forum that have the vast knowledge and experience to judge others, and to be qualified to sufficiently judge sanity.

Question since you have these powers.

Why would anyone trust proven and admitted liars as the Clinton couple truly are ? Is that considered a mental defect of some sort ?

Ben Carson does NOT believe in evolution and he believes the Earth and everything on it was created in SIX days about 6,000 years ago.

People who believe in the Bible as literal history - like Carson does - are not rational in any sense of the word.

We do not need right wing loons like him leading the country - and we won't. The general population of America is a lot smarter than to vote him into office.

Americans showed the Republicans in 2008 and 2012. It will happen again in 2016 - thanks in part to the electoral college.

Remember, the smaller Republican counties in Florida lose out to the much larger Democrat bastions. All Florida electoral votes will go to Hillary Clinton!

I have no idea, as you do, how voting will go.

I DO know that i pray that voters do not judge all Christians as you did as "not rational" I saw many of those "loons" as you call them today praying in church, totally unaware of your slurs.

For extremely non religious posters, we sure have a few who do have the ability and profound knowledge to judge other people based on their beliefs.

Loons and not rational are the terms given to the ones who take the stories in the Bible as historical fact and that the world is dated back to 6,000 years.

That is the Old Testament.

Dear Guest:

What you say is just plain silly because the Constitution clearly separates state and religion. Many posters claim he would not make a good president. I have not made up my mind about Carson but since he is a man who believes in God one can infer that he has a conscious. Carson also projects an honesty, a morality and ethical essence about him and because of his profession an understanding of how things affect people. He has a methodical mind, a creative mind and has spent his life in pursuit of only good and positive things.

Essentially what I am saying is he has good character and right now we need a person with good character.

A president takes a solemn oath . In my mind I envision which of the candidates I would believe who would swear to uphold the laws of this nation and conduct the people's business.

I have selected the candidates whom I believe would honor that oath and I have eliminated the candidates whose background has demonstrated that they can't be trusted and that they would only promote their own self interests.

Posters may ridicule me for getting on a stump here but voters still are not getting it, this nation is at the precipice of a continuing decline because we are becoming a godless, greedy, small minded and self centered society. When Kardashian's running back to Lamar Odom crowds the news while Rome burns you can bet such a nation can't stand long.

These petty disputes among candidates and the over emphasis on social issues will sink us. voters need to focus their energy on issues such as national defense, the economy and foreign policy .

Since they are not either they don't care or they don't know any better. It is why some of us must speak up and reach beyond the pettiness. In that Marco Rubio has been a consistent model

Was Huckabee respecting the constitution when he praised Kim Davis for thumbing her nose at mans law and bringing the bible into the public office. You can word it anyway you want, but separation of church and state cannot be twisted into being the final say above the law of man. Also, I know you do not have to be a god freak to have moral values.

People who believe in the Bible as literal history - like Carson does - are not rational in any sense of the word.

We do not need right wing loons like him leading the country - and we won't. The general population of America is a lot smarter than to vote him into office.

Americans showed the Republicans in 2008 and 2012. It will happen again in 2016 - thanks in part to the electoral college.

Remember, the smaller Republican counties in Florida lose out to the much larger Democrat bastions. All Florida electoral votes will go to Hillary Clinton!

YOu are in the pathetic minority of non-believers. The Christian faith believes in creation and the word of the Bible as fact. There have been better persons than you that have tried and failed attempting to discredit the Bible.

You just go ahead and vote for your liar, cheater, and violator of national security. Put your trust in her. She could care less about you. You may not like Carson, but just by being a doctor it shows he cares about others. If you feel that his faith in God is worst than being a distrustful liar and national security threat, then go ahead and vote for Hilary. YOu must be a very miserable person, if you want the worst for America. Makes one wonder how you could hate your country so much.

Still showing your ignorance. But diverting to West..Bap..Church is real original. It would be more credible if you could tie in some sort of relationship with the topic though.

But, do go back to conversing with yourself. I believe your mom is coming downstairs soon with your milk and fruitloops.

Let's see, Carson professes to be a Christian. He's reputed to be a great surgeon, and that doesn't seem to be diminished by his faith. Maybe it even enhances his gift?
Hilary is a gifted liar. She lies to Americans, she doesn't care about national security and like Obama, she blames someone else for her failures. Perhaps her lying enhances her lawyer gift?

Carson, a Christian with a stellar reputation
Hilary, a dishonest lying felon with a disgraceful reputation.

Tough decision, I have to admit.

If and when the occasion occurs that warrants me having to utilize "Depends" I am sure that Obamacare will pay for you to assist changing them for me. After all, once your socialism takes over America, you will need/be required to have a job. And by the way, I will thank you now for paying for my social security and pension, because I am probably the last generation that will enjoy both. Better stock up on work boots and gloves. Don't want to damage those tender, soft hands of yours.

These anti God, anti Religion, anti laws posters will go back a far as they can and do and say whatever it takes to convince everyone to abandon the caring about the character of our elected folks. They have no respect for anything except themselves.

And the far right religious nuts think the only thing that matters for one to be a good politician is if someone spouts Bible verses and prays against all things liberal. They have no respect for anything except themselves.

Back to the subject at hand, clearly the only fruit loop in the room is Carson. Going after people with baseball bats...really...And this is Presidential. Hmm..

[QUOTE=Guest;1135604]Keep in mind that Carson wants the bible to dictate the law of the land and NOT the constitution. I guess he would put Kim Davis on the Supreme


Dr Carson has publicly stated just the opposite - that one's religion or beliefs should NOT interfere with one's interpretation of the Constitution. He went further to say he would not vote for a Christian who pursued the creation of a theocracy.

I am very interested to see evidence to back your post.

He was a teenager when these things occurred. No one on here has ever done anything construed to be socially wrong, right?

Tell you what, you bring me his criminal record from the last 30-40 years. Then bring me his work ethic record, how many lives he has saved, a complaint from the conjoined twins that he operated on, and then we'll do a comparison study between his reputation, past record and Hilary's. Let's go back to her scandals in Arkansas, her work record, her lies, her blaming someone else for her failures, her family life, and........tell me how many lives she has personally saved.

Yes, I do believe he is a viable candidate for president. Will I vote for him? I haven't decided on a candidate yet, but it sure won't be the criminal Hilary, or the Socialist Bernie. You know, the guy that spent his honeymoon in the Soviet Union.

Let's examine this a bit. You claim that Christians (or religious folk in general) are nuts and have no respect for others. And yet, they constitute 80-90 percent of the population. You know what they say about those that think everyone else around them is crazy, don't you? It means that you are the real fruitcake, not everyone else.

You can give plenty of minute little details that you feel are disqualifiers for the candidates, but you have not been able to find one positive thing to support your criminal Hilary. That is pretty sad,,,,,,,and I will pray for you.

I can't help but wonder when I see statements like this if this is why liberals tend to want to keep those who are financially needy or struggling, be it morally or emotionally, under their thumb so to speak. Could it be that they don't believe that people can change? That they are incapable of pulling themselves up by their boot straps, therefore "big brother" has to intervene, often for life, to do everything for them? If so, how sad to look at your fellow man in this way. Seems like a pretty hopeless outlook on life. Not one I'm familiar with, nor I'm sure, are most Americans.

Care to comment?

Perhaps the error in the thinking is there is any incentive or intent for the individual to improve.

I think it is just the oppoesite. The intent is to build a voter base that is dependent upon the government to provide benefits forever in return for re-elections.

There is no improvement required in their strategy what so ever.

The flaw (one of many) in their thinking? At some point the number with their hand out will so far excede those who pay into the government (taxes) that the benefits will wind up being reduced. A side effect of course will be the dependent will adjust as they have no other choice. Being that the dependent overwhelm the system eventually just by simple pro-creation.....the standard of living will continue to reduce.

One big advantage (it could be viewed as an advantage) is that no matter how bad the standard of living descends to it will be better than they had before the handouts or where ever they came from.

We are, like it or not on that path. Enjoy what we have today because it is the best it will ever be after today!
