Carson: GOP Has GOP ‘Neglected’ African-American Communities
Breitbart ^ | 09/13/2015 | Pam Key

Posted on 09/13/2015 11:22:56 AM PDT by E. Pluribus Unum

Sunday on Fox News Channel’s “Media Buzz,” Republican presidential candidate Dr. Ben Carson said the Republican Party has in the past “neglected” African-American community but because of the recent chaos in race relation brought on by unrest in Ferguson, Baltimore and other cities the GOP ” has a very excellent opportunity,” to reach out and help “get business and industry and academia to invest in people.”

Carson’s another Colin Powell plain and simple.

Survivor guilt is a very strong force.

Actually, it’s the black community who haven’t taken care of their neighborhoods.

Ben, this isn’t going to fly. -5 in the polls next week.

Your own race considers you an ‘Uncle Tom’.

Wise up.

GOP must do more for a group that votes 99% for the other party?

Yeah, that makes complete sense.

Here's what the Doc had to say last Friday about the gentle giant of Ferguson:
Carson gave an interview to the Post-Dispatch on Friday afternoon after visiting Ferguson. When asked if he would have shot Brown if he were in Wilson’s shoes, Carson said: “It’s hard to say. I probably, knowing who he was, I probably just would have arrested him.”
Carson said he would have waited for backup before having the altercation.

The ghettos of America are God forsaken places.

They were God forsaken places 50 years ago, and the same places are still God forsaken.

These places are disaster areas regardless of which political party controls Congress, regardless of which political party is in the White House.

Republicans have neglected the black community??? Really???

What about the fact that numerous God forsaken cities have been run by Democrats for generations? Does any facts matter or do we just want to make half baked political statements???

I guess Ben didn’t get the memo about Trump garnering 25% of the black vote.

I think this guy is too stupid to have a clue about the real history of our country. The Democrats were the slavers and the Jim Crow dealers. The Republicans freed the slaves.

What does he want? Give the ghetto dwellers even more freebies than the Democrats? Buy them off with even more taxpayer dollars?

They all hate Whitey, but they will never go back to Africa where they would be in the majority. I guess in Africa, they can't exploit "white guilt."

It is NOT the Republicans that have neglected the Black people....It has been OBAMA....

Let's put the blame where the blames needs to go:

Obama, first half black pReseident of the White House had so much opportunity to lead his brothers, but he ignored them, gave them anything to shut them up...
he was to busy getting his REAL brotherhood going to destroy America!!

And then Moosebutt could have, being fully black, could have helped the black women and children, but she was to busy taking vacations and using our dime to do it on...

Then she had to butt her nose into OUR children's food plan to starve them to death, but notice she didn't deny herself anything...

So put blame where blame is due!!!

Not even the good doctor sees the fluorescent purple flashing lights elephant in the living room.

Blacks, especially men, do not have the proper background and boundaries and social behaviors taught by dads in this country; women cannot produce men. Pure and simple. The war on drugs and war on poverty destroyed the black nuclear family and we haven’t begun to challenge that or start to repair it. To start, someone has to shake up the establishment and stop hating whites a la BLM and other hate groups.

Wake up, Doctor Carson, you should know better.

WTF, non Democrats preach education, jobs and family as a way out of poverty. The other side is Santa Clause and kept them poor.

I AM PISSED BY DR. CARSON’S STATEMENT. Democrats said they give the N words welfare and they would vote Democrat for 200 years.
They were the slave owners who blocked Civil Rights Legislation for a long time and hosed black kids out of schools.
Democrats revitalized the KKK and a few had fund raisers in the White House.
How have DEMOCRATS not been the anchor around their feet?

DR. Carson, you are full of it.

Pretty much oh I dunno...100% on the money.

When you got someone on the wrong side of so many conservative issues and AMERICAN issues, you pretty much can read the tea leaves to come. And he obviously is a race pimp.

A man can be a brilliant brain surgeon but not have a clue about other subjects.
