Dr Ben Carson[W:1122]

Re: Dr Ben Carson

If this is your conclusion I assume you haven't read anything up to this point.





If he runs....that is the point.

That is sure a lot of leftwing fear over a possible run.

People misspeak. It is dishonest of you to compare it to something that was written and publish and Carson defended in an interview. But this is just what I was talking about.

For a man running for president of the USA confusion over how many states there are is more then a gaffe. He said something stupid.....just like Joe Biden's "Three letter word....J O B S....JOBS"

Actually I have read and listened to a great deal of what he has said. I know you haven't...

Son, I read and listened to Dr Carson long before he entered the realm of political commentary. I doubt that you have read all that much or listened to him since. If you had, you would not make some of the criticisms that you have made.


We don't think we own, what we know is that African Americans consistently vote for Democrats usually at over 80% of the vote. Some Democrats take it for granted, however most do not. It is racist to think just because you run a black guy they will switch their vote.

It is racist for you to assume that some of them will not

You see the reason that blacks tend to vote for Democrats is that they see that party as sharing their values in areas that are really important.

Which values are those? Welfare entitlements?

First there is no Democrat party, it is Democratic. Only idiots, people who don't understand simple English and sheep of the right wing noise machine say Democrat party. Which are you? Oh and yes it is really really racist to do that.

Racist to call the democratic party the "democrat party"? Oh my!


As for snowflake you will need to explain that one to me before I can make a judgement since I don't understand the insult Again how do you get that.
.

If was a progressive on this board that used it in place of the term "uncle tom". I think you can work it out.

That is exactly what you said. You said that he will draw off minority votes. How? What does he offer that say Rick Santorum doesn't since they share a lot of the same positions? What possible evidence do you have for this? And Why would they?

You do understand that George Bush (W) drew enough Hispanic votes to make a difference in 2000 and 2008, don't you Or are you racist enough to believe that all minorities are hard core progressives?

Why? Let's say he breaks every record and gets 25% of the black vote. Dr. Carson with pull together the Democrats and the far left who sometimes don't vote and didn't in 2012. The Democrats will take away the suburban housewife vote who will be scared of Carson's social issues and of course there are plenty of Republicans who will stay home or vote for a moderate Democrat over Ben Carson and his lack of experience. So let's say no the Dems are itching to run against a guy like him.



You should read history.

The democrats in 2016 will still be reeling from voter anger over Obamacare.....and that will be just before the much feared employer mandate hits.

Except they didn't at all. Once she opened her mouth we knew she wasn't going to be a threat. In fact the McCain campaign seriously thought of replacing her on the ticket. Your lack of history is stunning for someone trying to tell me what I think.

Your lack of ability to see the big picture is stunning. The democrats six years later are still going after Palin. I challenge you to come up with anything Palin said when she so-called opened her mouth that cleared her from being a so-called threat. The truth is that the democrats went into full slander and destroy mode. And as for McCain, the best thing he could have done for the 2008 GOP ticket would have been to replace himself. As I pointed out, he had a problem with the conservative base. I'm sure you remember his own mother's on camera statement: "They will hold their nose and vote for him".

Except whoops you made my point in your earlier statement. Maybe you simply have a memory issues.

I don't think you have a point.

Now you are just trolling.........
 
Re: Dr Ben Carson

I notice a phenomenon here. People actually hate Obama more than they love America.
 
Re: Dr Ben Carson

The more I see this guy the more I like him. He is a no non sense guy, intelligent, and will make a great president and the good thing about him is I doubt the left will be able to come up with any dirt on him...He scares the hell out of the democrats. One thing for sure is they will not be able to call him a racist.... I sure hope he runs.... What do you think?
If Republicans were smart, they'd create a committee of the leading doctors, health care providers, etc. - and name Carson to chair it - to make recommendations to our health care system to develop a proposal for replacing Obamacare with and then campaign on "repeal and replace" 24/7 through November 2016.
 
Re: Dr Ben Carson

Medicare for all is the most common sense plan. No politician will support it though because insurance companies have too much money.

Corporate and union money in politics is why we can't have nice things. In Los Angeles all the trains stop shy of the airport, forcing you to take a taxi the rest of the way. Not that anybody really needs me to spell it out, but yes, the taxi union did make sure the trains stopped shy of the airport.

As long as bribery is protected as free speech, it is a hopeless system.

That was demonstrated in all its beauty in the Ukrainian crisis threads. The praise that conservatives lavished upon Putin was...enlightening.

Some truly, remarkably awful crap flies under the guise of free speech.

Which praise would that be? I did not notice it. Putin is an evil monster. I pointed out as much at the time stating that he is using tactics similar to tactics Hitler used in the build up to WW2. At the same time I did mention Obama's stunning incompetence.
 
Re: Dr Ben Carson

Hey, that's cool. If you want to believe that Creationism and preventing two people of the same sex from getting married is your ticket to the White House, then by all means have at it. The Democratic Party depends on people like you to put forward the craziest, most unelectable people possible.

That's why you appear so off the wall on the left. You want to insist that anyone who believes in creationism any level, does not believe in gay marriage , or man made global warming is a nutjob. If one is not 100% in the politically correct crowd, you come out with the crazy or flat earther chants. Let's see how that works out for you in the 2014 midterms.
 
Re: Dr Ben Carson

Preventing people of the same sex getting married seemed to have worked for Obama in 08? And im sure he got your vote, whats that say about you that you would vote for such a religious nut job gay hating bigot like Barry in 08??

The progressives are in conflict with themselves. They want to assume for instance that anyone who believes in creationism is a nut job. Yet anyone who believes in God believes in creationism at some level. Both Obama and Bill Clinton claim to believe in God. Clinton used to purposely do photo ops going into orcomiung out of church carrying an over-sized bible in his hands. It must really pain Cardinal to avoid calling referring to Obama and Clinton as religious nut jobs.

no they don't. That is a stupid statement.

Because they are not

while i believe in G_d, i don't believe in creationism
the easter bunny, tooth fairy, or santa

i believe carson is a decent fellow, with good medical skills, and a weak understanding of human behavior as well as a williness, as a well educated scientist, to subscribe to religious beliefs that are unsupportable by scientific fact
if he will ignore scientific fact, what other facts would he choose to ignore
that is why he is not found to be a qualified candidate to be elected to a position as the most powerful person on the planet

If you do believe in God, then you believe in creationism at some level. Perhaps intelligent design, as I do. It is possible to believe in evolution and creationism. You do not have to be anti-science to be religious. Dr Carson has openly admitted that he accepts the concept of natural selection. That, sport, is evolution. You will just have to live with it. And Dr Carson is certainly not anti-science.

wow you are ignorant of both creationism and evolution and it appears intelligent design.

Some religious Jews do not write GOD because they feel it is a holy name and it shouldn't be written in a non-holy context. Especially when there is a possibly of someone desecrating it.
