Sacrificial lamb?
Dr. Carson is a good man, but we’ve already elected one President because of the color of his skin.
I fail to see the appeal. Carson is not presidential material
TED CRUZ! Maybe choose Scoot Brown or Ben Carson for VP to limit the liberal vote for HRC.
Not presidential material, better as surgeon general.
I want him to run for Mayor of Detroit. Its where he was born, he still respected there.
If he can handle that snakepit, he can handle the presidency.
He’s also pro-amnesty.
Really not especially conservative at all.
Nice man, but it’s egos like this that make the GOP primary season easy pickings for the GOPe.
The reason the "Reagan Revolution" only lasted for twelve years is because he selected a VP who wasn't "with the program".
If we elect Cruz only to have him succeeded by another RINO, we'll lose momentum again. And I'd contend that we need conservative governance for at least twenty years to get this country back where it should be.
You make an excellent point. Bush I and II were disasters.
If you dare criticize a Black politician, you must be a Racist(tm).
Of course the Democrats are busy digging through Dr. Carson's life all the way back to elementary school, looking for some dirt that they can use. And if they can't find anything, they will just make up something.
Which they will get a "concerned conservative" to leak to the media, so the Democrats hands stay clean. Much better to get the conservatives to form up a circular firing squad and destroy the opposition candidates all by themselves.
My List
Cruz
Palin
Perry
Jindal
Cain (although I dont expect him to run)
Paul
Then Carson
That’s what I think, too. Any black man, no matter how educated and well qualified, would have a tough row to hoe trying to get elected President in the future IMO. Another strike against Obummer, what he has done to the black American.
Mike Pence is at the top of my list.
IMHO the key point is we need to pick one early and support them in order to keep the RINOs out.
I’m damaged because of 0. No more lying mystery flip floppin coloreds as in NAACP.
Viva la Tea Party.
why do you think these guys would steal any liberal vote? just wondering.
TedCruz/Mike Pence 2016.
Michael Steele was chosen as chairman of the Republican National Committee in part because he was black. Steele wound up with a 5% favorable, 53% unfavorable rating among blacks. Did he change a single black vote from Democrat to Republican?
Identity politics is the left's game.
