Carson has the same problem as Cruz, Rubio and Paul.
We tried that and it has been a disaster.

To: kalee
lol. And they were torturing Trump over it.
I’m telling you, Carson has a God complex. He said he is running because the people need him. I dont know if he’s all there.

You’re big on GOPe-backed faux conservatives paid to split the conservative vote?
To: Tupelo
Carson is intelligent and accomplished. He’s done some good for humanity. As president he would make a fine role model. Unfortunately all that absolutely disqualifies him in the minds of the voters.
To: WhiskeyX
This is very strange and is going to make supporters very freaking nervous. Stability will be thought an issue.

“But you know, again, I don’t think we need to emphasize so much a person’s political party as we need to emphasize a person’s philosophy,” he added. “What do they believe in? Do they believe in America? Do they think that there’s something unique and special and exceptional about America. Do they believe in values and principles that made us great, or are they just willing to give all that stuff about for the sake of political... Just another Clown Media screed that completely misrepresents what was actually said in the hopes of generating hysterics and division

party’s current No. 2 presidential candidate
by some rigged poles by the MSM
Not now, not later and not in a third party.
If it plays out Bush as Gop, Turd as Dem and Carson as third party, I damn sure will stay home.
Texas, time to secede.........

Where were you when the "Mr Rogers for President" campaign was looking for support?
He certainly met your standards, but the voters left him talking to puppets, crazy postal carriers, and playing with trains on TV.
You could have done something, but you didn't.
Look at Mr. Rogers. You made him sad.

To: MNJohnnie
I did read it. It sounds like he backtracked but I hope he knows better than to do that.
He had to be asked four times before he said no

with this statement, Ben Carson has just identified with the “Bill Crystal” GOPe “Third Party” team ... AKA ... the Yeb Bush campaign ...
