I'm not interested in Carson for president, but as far as I can tell the man earned everything he has, accomplished more than most and is hardly a product of affirmative action. He's done far greater things in his life than 99% of FReepers.

I disagree with him on a few things, but the character assassination on FR of a decent man who deserves better here is a bit unsettling.

The fact that a person the caliber of Ben Carson is having trouble competing in the political arena says a lot about the GOP talent pool this time around. Four years ago he might well have been Romney’s main challenger had he developed his current reputation by then.

But while I don’t agree with his position on guns, but anyone criticizing his character is saying a lot more about their own character than about his.

Who's character assassinating him?

We just believe he has no business running for President, period.
