He's educated, well spoken and "CLEAN" and a conservative black doctor. Can't wait to hear what the radical left comes up with to attack him...you know IF he's running.

Gloria Allred and the MSM would drum up something.

Well, as long as he doesn't propose some ridiculous 9-9-9 plan, he shouldn't expect too much grief from the left.

He's a creationist. A perfect candidate for the GOP. Fits right in with all those whack jobs.

Carson couldn't get nominated.

wiki facts:

"Carson was born in Detroit, Michigan and was raised there by his single mother, Sonya Carson. After graduating with honors from Southwestern High School, he attended Yale University"

Already he sounds like a mixture of Romney and Obama.

PS He's not even a registered republican.

This guy may be a brilliant dr, but he's a social and political dodo. Anti gay marriage and believes in creationism.

Try again, GOP.

wiki facts:

Tch tch. No military service. Never ran a business or had to make a payroll.

"He struggled academically throughout elementary school..."

Can we get those records? Or is he hiding them? Why is he hiding them?

You guys in Harris County GOP ginning up to lynch him? Y'all seemed pretty ready at CPAP demanding slaves should have been grateful for being owned and fed.

He's the GOP POTUS candidate??? When did that happen??? Was this post just a thinly veiled attempt to stir up race issues? I see Boaz is up to it too. The conservative email list must've received today's marching orders. Carry onward soldiers.

CPAC's candidate of choice is rand paul.

They think they're using Dr. Benjamin Carson but in reality he's using them.

well it's not uncle tom but its something anyway....

as allan west said...the worst nightmare for a lib is a black conservative.........and YES one that comes up with something other than 9-9-9-.. lol

this thread was just a preview of how the left will viciously attack and instult and demean ANY black conservative but really one like this one..
you can MAKE UP ANY kind of XXXX you want, doesn't make it so

Only a conservative would bring up his race. Personally, I don't see why it's relevant. Anyone care to enlighten me? I'm not sure that Mitt's dark-face makeup for Hispanic audiences won him any votes, or caused him to change any policy opinions.

Ben Carson isn't a Republican. It says something about the current state of the GOP that some people are putting him forward as a potential presidential candidate when he isn't even a member of the party.

that's some odd logic there 'Cade, any vibrant Political Party energized by grassroots critical-thinkers would endorse those WHO SHARE THEIR IDEALS

ya have been told what to think by your betters too long to be able to figure simple stuff like that out on your own?

I wonder if he ever put a dog in a crate on top of his car? Hmmmm......

"Only a conservative would bring up his race."

Right! "Progressives" NEVER bring up any race issues. Well, maybe once in a while Joe Biden might say something...or Nancy Nelosi...or Harry Reid...or...oh, screw it.

I'm sure they would bring up some very mature and sane arguments like:
He is a poo poo head.

He is so vulnerable on the issues, he is already a joke.

I doubt the left will accuse him of being a commie secret Muslim foreigner.

Isn't this the guy who said he prefers tithing over taxes.

Pass the collection plate and cue the virgins. We have a winner here.

Ben Carson isn't a Republican.

Neither were McCain, Etchy, Dubya and Herbie. Even Reagan is suspect. Just repeating what aflac and the other "not Republican but just conservative" posters here tell me.

we all sleep better knowing conservatives won't vote for blacks, aflac. take a look at the GOP House an Senate. No elected blacks. The only one with a job is an Affirmative Action placeholder.

You're not against blacks, you just refuse to vote for them.

The only thing I know about Ben Carson is that he is a rude creep who uses the opportunity at a prayer breakfast to attack the President of the United States. So far, I think he is an a*****e. It's up to him to prove that first impression wrong, somehow I doubt he will.

@ NORTHGUY3

The good doc has made it clear he literally doesn't consider himself a Republican.

Oh, and if you disagree please do provide the last example of a personal attack at the prayer breakfast. It was shameless.
