Ben Carson on Trump's Taunts: "I Have Plenty of Energy'

Dr. Ben Carson continues to be calm about his presidential campaign, despite his new status as republican front-runner in Iowa and target of Donald Trump's taunts.

In an interview to air on NBC's "Meet the Press" Sunday, Carson responded to Donald Trump referring to him as "sleeping" and "super low energy" by saying that "it's fine" if Trump wants to attack him for his campaign style.

"I don't get into the mud pit and I'm not going to be talking about people. I will tell you, in terms of energy, I'm not sure that there's anybody else running who has spent 18 or 20 hours intently operating on somebody," Carson said.

I just read this morning that Dr. Ben says he ‘will not respond’ to Trump. I guess he’s had enough static, time to return fire.

Sure does! He can’t wait to grant Amnesty by another name or confiscate guns for the people most in need of them.

The man’s energy for liberalism is truly boundless.

Every news source has had this as their headline today. Surely, there’s a cat in a tree that needs saving or someone has an ingrown toenail to make the 5 o’clock news.

Trump better watch out.

I dont want an amiable president.

Trump is kicking Gentle Ben's cage. Ben needs to show some fight.

We have enough gentle folks in leadership of this country.

We need some American pit bulls.

Ben's a brilliant guy and will serve in a great position is a Trump administration. But he not Presidential material.

It’s Sleepy’s supporters that need to wake up. We don’t need a Pacifist in charge of our military nor another President unwilling to enforce our immigration laws.

Let him go community organize with his good friends Al Sharpton and Louis Farrakhan.

Go Trump Go

Carson is a nice man, but doesn’t have what it takes to fix the mess we’re in.

One of my favorite lines in a movie was when Gov. Pappy O’Daniel told his opponent, “Why you pasty faced Sumbitch, I Invented Moral Fibah!”

You’re right about Doc Holliday. Best role Kilmer ever played.

Carson is a gun grabber and a huge Amnesty proponent.

Who is donating all the dark money to his PAC ?

I have had enough from the current gun grabber and amnesty Muslim .

I heard him today and he's got that smoothing doctor voice. He needs to act like a leader not a wise man. I don't think it's his style.

Ditto what you said, Red. Go Trump!

BTW, as a Scotsman, I have a soft spot for redheads and gingers.;-)

I am a half ginger myself.

Carson is a mench.

Even though he seems to be 'rat urban utopia centric with his social thinking, he is a quick study of the original thinking behind the Constitution.

The number of supposed conservatives willing to vote for this guy does not bode well for America. Then again look how many would accepr Rubio and Fiorina as well.

I’m a Cruz guy and will remain so. But if people want to compromise some issues again, at least Trump is on more right sides of things, and the right sides of more important things, that Carson.

Bingo. I like the guy, but not presidential caliber. No insult intended.

Ben will be “high energy” when he grants citizenship to illegals who he gives work permits to, once he’s in office.

At least, that appears to be his stated intent as of this week.

Just say, “No” to Ben Carson.
