Isn’t Carson a gun grabber?
leading Joe Biden?
Now there’s a stunning bellwether
Hey, let’s play this tune again!
It goes something like this:
[everybody sing]
Let’s run 6 conservative candidates,
and let the “leadership” run their guy.
We split the votes!
They get the Nom!
Yeah!
Sentimentality over substance.
I'll field that question.
We have paid pollsters trying to take down the real conservative leader, Ted Cruz.
He seems to be an "attractive distractor" to divert votes from proven constitutional conservative candidates.
This is ridiculous. If Carson was White, he’d be just another slightly right of center guy. His positions are not all that profound, and he is no friend to the second amendment. The Republicans don’t need a “Magic Negro”. If the man has the right stuff, then that’s great. Carson does not have the right stuff.
A lot of these pollsters will be pushing candidates like Carson or Santorum. They want to use candidates that have ZERO chance to split conservatives votes so that we end up with someone like Jeb.
Worked for McCain and Romney.
He lost support from me when he said cops should shoot to wound when confronted with a feral yute seeking to kill the cop.
Also in the poll you will notice that Carson finishes 2nd behind Christy among the VERY LIBERAL.
Once his gun-grabber history is well known he will fall to * status in polls.
Another Carson ‘push piece’.
We also see them for Huckabee, JBush, Santorum, Romney, et al.

Until wannabes actually start announcing [throwing their hats into the ring], these ‘polls’ and articles are little more than propaganda trying to push a specific name.
I would stay home before I’d vote for Carson.....
He is the perfect antidote to the dark, miserable, sinister, depressing, hopeless message of the Obama Leftists.
Dr Carson is a shining and unimpeachable example of the American Dream!
Scott Walker is not in this poll, for that reason I find it suspect.
And Carson is so naive and/or full of himself he may not even recognize or care that he's being USED by dark GOP anti-conservative forces to skew the primaries.

No matter what their various conservative-vs.-liberal ideologies may be, there are two type of Republicans running for the 2016 presidential nomination — tortoises and hares.
So far, Ben Carson is the only tortoise. He’s willing, and apparently happy, to work at the grassroots level, out of the spotlight, winning hearts and minds through his speeches and books, and gaining contributions through his PAC.
On the other hand, there are many, many hares in the 2016 race, those seeking the spotlight one way or another, or seeking funding from wealthy donors.
So it’s Ben Carson vs. many rivals who are splitting the hare vote. That’s why he’s winning in the polls and is likely to continue to keep amassing supporters until he has a sizable enough lead to win the primaries...and then the presidency.
Carson is not going to be the nominee. Though if he hangs around long enough he could help guarantee that either Bush or Romney is.
