Trump, Cruz and Carson are all making excellent points. It’s a shame the media will not acknowledge any of it. Just nasty guys picking on Hillary over an innocent email or two.

Anyone collecting ( or living on ) welfare and food stamps (EBT) should lose the right to vote while on public assistance . Easy to check . It should be a national voter eligibility requirement .

“False compassion is patting them on the head and saying, ‘You can’t take care of yourself and I’m going to give you food stamps, a housing subsidy and free health care,'” Carson said according to the Gainesville Times. “And all the things you need so you can stay dependent and vote for me.’”

Keep talking Dr Carson. I have no idea where this will all end up but watching you make Leftist Media Plantation heads explode by speaking truth to them is a delight to watch

Welfare and subsides have successfully cut my giving way down. I decided that if the government was going to take my money and give it to things I do not approve I would not give as much willfully. I have about 3 specific thing I donate to and ignore all the rest, especially anything that has to do with inner city, victim relief run by the government etc...

We’ve all known this for quite some time...

If we got rid of welfare the taxpayers would have more money to give to private charities. Then the people who “need” welfare can go to these private charities and get assistance.

We didn’t have food stamps prior to 1939 and I don’t recall hearing about people dying in the streets.

“[I have] no desire whatsoever to hurt the poor,” Carson noted. “But I believe in true compassion, providing the poor with a mechanism to climb the ladder of success.”

A noble goal. Just how would Dr. Carson accomplish that?

It's worse than 40 acres and a mule.

Drum this home, Ben.

NOTHING guarantees poverty like dependence of the government.

The democrats buy your vote by keeping you poor.

And the elephant in the room that Dr. Carson doesn’t dare even bring up: wholly illegal/unconstitutional.

All else if icing on the cake on why is NEEDS to be demolished.

I’d actually go one more than some have posted (on welfare, no voting). I’d add not paying income taxes = no voting; fact, it should be the more you pay the more you get to vote (20%-tile, 2 votes, 30%-tile, 3 votes).

Except you’d hear the gnashing of dentures there (broken-hip-3rd-rail) /s

Cruz, Carson, Trump. These men, against the enormous pressure of the “popular press” are saying out loud the things freepers and our friends have been saying for years and years.

They aren’t only campaigning for president, they are educating Americans. They are saying simple things, and they are TELLING THE TRUTH. No one in Washington has done that in decades.

In comparison, Bush and Kasich, Rove and Beck, Goldberg and Will make the right look like pale shadows of fear.

We are fortunate to have them.
