Jesus helps me fill out my tax return and I always get money back.

Two things.

The Post writer is an idiot who has never taken a Chemistry class and would fail if it tried.

And why did they not go over Obama’s book with the sane zeal?

Obviously this latter is a rhetorical question we know the answer to.

The author of this hit piece is a racist and a religious bigot. There, I said it.

I’m not sure Jesus got him into Yale, but Affirmative Action sure did.

This article is weird. So now Jesus helped him cheat on a test by showing him the questions ahead of time? Was this before or after he supposedly had his picture taken for the Yale paper for being the most “honest” student?

who had developed weak study habits in high school

Yeah, that is why he graduated with the highest GPA ever.....

If Carson believes that the Lord intervened and helped him in college, then that's what happened..

That's what faith is.

The author, IMO, is poking fun at faith at Carson's expense.

Not that I am surprised, because this media lynching is all about anti- religious bias and not really about vetting a candidate.

End over end, neither left nor to right
Straight through the heart of them, righteous up rights
Dropkick me, Jesus, through the goal posts of life

Make me, oh, make me, Lord, more than I am
Make me a piece in Your master game plan
Free from the earthly temptation below
I’ve got the will, Lord, if You got the toe

I don’t see a named writer for the article. Did no one ‘fess up to this, or was it just an omission in your posting? I think every one of these halfa$$ed “journalists” should have their name known quite publicly.

To an atheistic secular humanist giving God credit is humblebragging. ..kinda like shining a flashlight in his/her eyes.

Whether one supports Carson or not, what is going on in this WaPo article is obvious. You have a brilliant black man who, in the view of the left, has dared to wander off the plantation and they are going to make him pay. It’s pretty much the same thing they did with Sarah Palin. She was a successful woman but since she wasn’t a liberal they felt compelled to destroy her.

I still would like to see a report of Zeros study habits, what classes he took, grades, hell even his entrance form stating the country of origin.

At least Carson has classmates and professors who remember seeing him in class.

Has even one person come forward yet who remembers the same of Obola?

Wow. I was in pre-med too, near failing in Chemistry (I was dating my lab partner--big mistake), and almost flunked out my freshman year during Vietnam(ROTC saved my butt).

I asked a frat brother what I could major in that didn't require a foreign language and had a lot of attractive co-eds in the classes, and he said "Try the Journalism School".

A survey course in journalism led to one assignment that required us to create an advertisement. That led to two degrees in journalism/advertising and a successful career in the ad biz.

Who knew?

When posting an article it's considered good form to also include the name of the author.

By the way, did you join so you can participate in discussions or only so you can keep posting articles critical of Carson?

People who don’t know God will tend to mock anyone who acknowledges God.

They don’t have a clue.

I’m not a Carson supporter but this stuff doesn’t hurt him, it actually helps him. Any conservative that piles on to the stupider media hit jobs is simply beclowning himself.

There is plenty to criticize Carson for, from a conservative viewpoint. These media hits tend to miss the point. You begin to notice that the kind of people hired to write this stuff are not the brighter bulbs. But thats not new, we’ve always known that.

As a med school professor for many years, the one consistent thing I’ve noticed about successful medical students is their abilty to absorb and retain material that they’ve seen only once. Carson did his part in picking up the knowledge from attending class and studying, but his faith helped give him the confidence that he would do well on the test. Confidence is often as big a part of success as is preparation. A person can be well-prepared to take a test, but if they lack the confidence in their ability, they are likely to struggle and second-guess their answers.

"While he sleeps, Carson dreams that a nebulous figure enters the chemistry hall and begins working out problems, while Carson, sitting alone in class, takes rapid notes. "

This is a dream. I get that. But, how does one take notes in a dream and remember them the next day?? why didn't he study the notes he took in a real class?

I just don't see how Jesus could help him "cheat". I think it's the other entity who would do that. In my experience God performs a miracle AFTER I have exhausted ALL possibilities while keeping in touch with Him along the way. He then takes over. He has never failed me.

What Carson said, I'll take it with a grain of salt.

This is great. Now he needs to dream up a way to do away with the national debt!

Go Trump, Carson and Cruz.

Carson is Brilliant, Obama is Mediocre.

Can’t have that simple fact get out to the Masses. Must destroy that uppity Brain Surgeon at all costs.

While I’m not a Ben fan, he would be great in either a Cruz of Trump Administration though.
