Ben Carson should re-think his position on Amnesty and acknowledge that Americans have rights too
Coach is Right ^ | 11/10/15 | Kevin "Coach" Collins

Posted on 11/10/2015 7:56:58 AM PST by Oldpuppymax

Ben Carson has fallen into a “moral” trap as regards offering citizenship to illegal aliens who are here working in jobs that could be filled by American workers.

In his campaign material Carson asks, “Is it moral for us, for example, to take advantage of cheap labor from illegal immigrants while denying them citizenship? I’m sure you can tell from the way I phrased the question that I believe we have taken the moral low road on this issue. Some segments of our economy would virtually collapse without these undocumented workers–we all know that–yet we continue to harass and deport many individuals who are simply seeking a better life for themselves and their families. Is there a way to apply logic to this issue and arrive at an intelligent solution?”

Taking a position like this is a strong indicator that he would be subject to manipulation by the wolves in Washington who want no borders and all the cheap labor they can get regardless of what that will do to our country.

Carson’s questions beg to be obliterated as dangerous.

He must be asked: “Why is illegally accessing the endless intangible benefits of living in the greatest country in the world...

Ben Carson, along with others with his views on Amnesty, is unacceptable as the Republican nominee.

If he came out and changed his view now, who could believe him? His statements have been so strongly in favor of amnesty. Carson:

'Is it moral for us, for example, to take advantage of cheap labor from illegal immigrants while denying them citizenship? Im sure you can tell from the way I phrased the question that I believe we have taken the moral low road on this issue. Some segments of our economy would virtually collapse without these undocumented workers,we all know that,yet we continue to harass and deport many individuals who are simply seeking a better life for themselves and their families.'

Carson’s biggest failing is that he takes and speaks out about positions first and then thinks about them after catching conservative flak. Study ... think ... formulate ... articulate - in that order, Ben.

Attack bots sure learn the fact about Carson’s position rather then cling to their usual attack lies.

I will NEVER vote to surrender the rule of law and the country, which is what amnesty does.

I think Carson is getting the Obama vote. Lots of guilty white Republicans voted for Obama too.

Real simple solution. Debate the fact rather then lying.

Knowing mis-representing the facts is lying. If you don’t like the facts about your daily habit of lying being pointed out, quit lying.

Not real sure why “Conservative Christians” thinking God is going to look favorably on their habitual lying.

Knowingly mis-representing the facts is lying no matter how you want to parse it.

“Lots of guilty white Republicans voted for Obama too.”

Bingo. How did that work out for them, and the country? But, it doesn’t seem to matter, because they are more than willing to let Carson finish what 0bama has started.

Carson's article needs major revisions. It should read "It is not moral for wealthy privileged Americans, to take advantage of illegals. After the wealthy privileged Mexican are through taking advantage of them.

For all they have been put through, we Americans owe them citizenship."

It is not the average middle class or lower class citizens that are taking advantage of them. It is both the American and Mexican elites that take advantage and profit off these poor people.

I don't know that your point is Carson is for amnesty, from June 20, 2015

"On Wednesday, Dr. Ben Carson said America's borders must be sealed to protect against terrorism and told a prominent group of Latino elected officials that he also supports giving illegal immigrants a path to legalization and eventual citizenship"

Very well cling to the lies. After all, you are the one that gets to explain it all to God one day.
