Retired neurosurgeon Ben Carson went toe-to-toe with the hosts of "The View" on Tuesday.
It wasn't a standard presidential-candidate interview.
Whoopi Goldberg's first two questions to the soft-spoken Republican were: No. 1, whether he ever yelled; and No. 2, about his claim that "Nazi Germany could happen here."
"That's not what I said," Carson protested.
"What I said was that most people in Nazi Germany did not believe in what Hitler was doing. But did they speak up? No,"
"They kept their mouths shut. And when you do that, you are compromising your freedom and the freedom of people who come behind you. You have to be willing to stand up for what you believe in."
Goldberg pointed out that people and groups such as the White Rose Society did push back against Hitler. Carson maintained that the German public didn't speak up enough.
Another cohost, Joy Behar, then pressed Carson on the topic of evolution.
"I was reading that you don't believe in evolution," Behar told Carson. "What I want to say to you is — don't take this wrong Mrs. Carson, I'm not asking for a date — but how do you feel about taking a trip to the Museum of Natural History with me? We could do like a little walk through and have a discussion about it."
Carson said he "would be happy" to go with Behar to the American Museum of Natural History. He added that he had already had debates with Nobel laureates on the issue.
"Let me explain. Let me explain," he began after Behar brought up fossil records. "Microevolution versus macroevolution are two different things."
Behar wasn't eager for that particular scientific discussion.
"This is too in the weeds for us right now," she said. "Let's just go on the date."

I thought that Whoopi Goldberg had been fired from the view.
Nazis, apes evolving and hurricanes are big priorities for me!
They can look at that nice picture of the little horsie whose fossil is no older than “modern” horses at the end of the artists mural,
How does someone with an IQ probably over 120ish have an intelligent discussion with two whores whose IQ is less than their age?
“Nazis, apes evolving and hurricanes ....”
The View hosts always like to talk about themselves, don’t they?
Here’s something that will change a lot of peoples opinions of the good doc.

IOW, I didn't really want to talk about evolution just try to score points because I thought I could make you look stupid, but now that you bring up actual facts, let's change the subject.
When a discussion of micro- versus macro evolution is too "in the weeds" you know the person speaking is an utter fool.
RE: I thought that Whoopi Goldberg had been fired from the view.
She’s probably the longest running host of that program next to Barbara Walters.
lol
Checkmate Dr. Carson.
Bwahahaha! He shut her up with, “ I’ve had this discussion with Nobel laureates”. She had to know she was in trouble there!
Hardly “epic”.
I can see it now Doc. Shark infested waters off skull Island where diabolical Nazis conduct science experiments on apes as Hurricane Don Ho approaches. Blockbuster stuff.
Epistemological are like anuses. Everyone has one, but few understand how much it influence their lives.
The View — a living poster for what’s so very wrong with American women, and why mail order wives are skyrocketing.
A favorite phrase for a lib-tard who is losing an argument....
No one ever said THEIR side of the conversation was intelligent...
