Religious nutcake? seems he would make a perfect US president. You Americans are aware when your President says “god bless america” it feel just the same to us as when Mocmoody Mcdinnerjacket says ” bless Allah. ” fucking fundamentalist religious countries are a sickness.

Dr Ben Carson was raised by his teenage mother (from a family of 14 children) who lost her job and found out her husband had other wives. His mother cleaned for a living and raised him and his brother absolutely requiring that they read. She threw out the television set.
Dr Carson went onto to became the world’s most famous neurosurgeon by performing absolutely impossible surgery – separating twins who were connected at the head. His work was quite spectacular.
A few weeks ago Dr Carson gave a speech where Obama was in attendance and he basically told Obama to go to hell. Make sure you watch in its entirety and look at Obama at the end how disrespectful he is:
Personally, I think if Ben Carson talks about God (which I am so NOT inclined to do), it’s a God I would choose to listen to.

You could put Jesus himself in the White House and it would be too late. We are Wile E. Coyote. We’ve gone off the cliff but we haven’t looked down yet.

The man reeks of humility, wisdom, integrity, and classic American values. He lacks Ron Paul’s eccentric edge, which was used against him so effectively. He’s no P.T. Barnum like Herman Cain. He’s not even connected to the two-headed serpent called Republicrat. What’s not to like?
These virtues make him dangerous, however, to TPTB. If, as he claims, only God’s hand will lead him to the political arena, there might be some amazing things ahead.

Don’t know much about Carson, but the Health Care plan he spoke of sure sounded interesting. Why isn’t that being discussed anywhere?
Watch Ben Carson’s speech at the Washington Prayer meeting on youtube. He’ll become your new hero.

Dr. Ben Carson for President? ‘I’ll Leave That Up to God’
By ABC News | ABC OTUS News
It’s a forum that isn’t known for making news – so Dr. Ben Carson says the buzz created by his speech at last week’s National Prayer Breakfast, including a Wall Street Journal staff editorial with the headline “Ben Carson For President” – came as a surprise.
“I don’t think it was particularly political,” Carson, the director of pediatric neurosurgery at Johns Hopkins, told ABC’s Chief White House Correspondent Jonathan Karl during an interview for ” This Week.” “You know, I’m a physician. I like to diagnose things. And, you know, I’ve diagnosed some pretty, pretty significant issues that I think a lot of people resonate with.”
With an audience that included President Obama and Vice President Joe Biden, Carson spoke out about political correctness, health care and taxes at the breakfast. In his roughly 23-minute address, Carson called for a private health care savings plan and a flat tax for all Americans. His address has since gone viral, racking up more than two million views on YouTube.
The speech isn’t Carson’s first foray into national politics. In 2008, President George W. Bush awarded the successful brain surgeon the Presidential Medal of Freedom, the nation’s highest civilian honor.

This dude, Mr. Opinionated Ben Carson, is outside the American mainstream. Why are we listening to him? Why’s he on the MSM?
“Let’s discuss things in a reasonable and rational way,” sez Mr. Opinionated. Then he goes on to propose, ex cathedra as a self-important person, a flat tax, budgetary reforms, and his idea of how political discussion should be conducted. All’s an implied insult to your President and mine who, fortunately, had the tact and grace to handle the insult.
“People act like third graders,” sez Mr. Opinionated and indeed he does.
We have a system in this country that works when used properly We’ve had our fling with Mr. O. Let’s say BAH to this MAn, and do what we can can to undermine the message of the false prophet who was on the stage at the National Prayer Breakfast gathering.

Admin has called our attention the fact that our problems and the Coyote’s will both be resolved by SPLAT.
The only solution is to have your own personal recipe for making some stew out of “SPLAT”.

One thing is for sure, very strong response to Dr. Carson. Almost everyone has heard of him by now who are at all interested in our country. And that doesn’t ever happen unless there is something real there, negative or positive.
And of course the different factions will do their “thing” either to elevate or to denegrate, but between now and 2016, a great deal of fallout from our current policies can change our whole scene and therefore how Dr. Carson will be received. Personally, I cannot see how an economic flatlining can be avoided which will nullify any entitlement programs or Obamacare, and of course it will just open the door to attacks from beyond our shores. It doesn’t take very much to shift a whole nation into a whole other mindset.
