He’s a black conservative. Sure, he’s an empty suit. Most veeps are.
15 yard penalty and loss of down,Ben.
Unfortunately, Ben dug this hole all by himself.
After Brian Williams serial lying, you would have thought that it would be better to just keep his mouth shut. Especially in light of the idea that to the left he’s (insert the latest leftist racial epithet about him here).
The left and the mediots simply cannot allow this man to grow in popularity, and continue to say the things he’s saying. They are doing to him what they did to Herman Cain. It worked with Cain, and it looks like the Carson walked right into their trap.
It’s a shame to see such a great man have his reputation tarnished this way. I do believe that after this... he’s done.
So be it.
This is POLITICO working hard to bury Carson.
This will help Trump.
Perhaps they think this will help Rubio, but it won't.
Congrats to your brother. We had 4 from my graduating class go there. All 4 were A students, and were athletes to boot.
This thread, unfortunately, if true, hurts. I don’t get why people feel the need to prop up their story to make it more interesting when their life in question is already remarkable. No doubt Dr. Ben has had some amazing experiences so it’s sad he would find the need to add some “fluff” to it.
Still, in hindsight, I don’t think this stacks up with HRC’s claim of being under “sniper fire” and all the other lies she told. At least Dr. Ben was serving in ROTC and had the credentials to back up an application and given the climate at the time, he most likely would have gotten in easily with his credentials. He chose not to apply and purused another successful career.
It’s sad though. Just something people can throw stones at.
Ben Carson is a plant of the GOPe, and the media, RINOs and talking heads all know this...
He is there to knock off Trump and probably Cruz to ensure Hillary's win....did you ever hear of Carson in the political world until this election? NO...
Trump wasn't quite about running this time, but they didn't figure he would knock over the apple cart of the GOPe like he has and he has a friend working with him on this, Ted Cruz....so the gig is up and now Carson is tanking just like all the rest....and the GOPe, media, RINOs have their hands in the cookie jar and don't know what to do...they hired super pacs, and campaign people and Club for Growth to take Trump out and it's not working...they didn't figure how big Trump's support base and Cruz's support base was going to be and thought that Bush could handle it, but he was a no show from the beginning....and so is Carson...
Burnt toast
I think they’re all racists for even ASKING Dr. Carson (who’s black, in case you didn’t know!) about his past!
/sarc, or not?
I agree completely. It looks like for once the primary process is doing its job.
Refining fire.
Maybe it was all a set up by Obama and the dims/GOPe from the start.
...and the Candy Crowley (sp) episode with Romney
Two coincidences are coincidences...
but three are a trend.

Trump is already tweeting and calling it a big story....
he should have claimed to be american indian, and bumped real indians out of jobs. that’s ok..
I liked this guy from the first moment he surfaced at the National Prayer Breakfast when he schooled obama. However recent things have bubbled to the surface like the infomercial, pyramid theory, and this story make me wonder if the guy is playing with a full deck. Like Ron Paul, I like a lot of things he’s said but there’s something not entirely right about the guy.
Well crap! 1) I am very disappointed that Ben Carson would lie. 2)He was my go to after Trump and Cruz. I wouldn’t have been terribly disappointed to vote for him. Not my choice but would have been okay since it was my impression he is a strong Christian. Would be wonderful to have a Christian leader in the White House.
You have a great weekend as well.
