He doesn’t go by any MLK said, whether one liked the man or not, he was brave, he didn’t want special treatment, probably didn’t want the words black or white mentioned.

Sharpton is an embarrassment.

Agree. Sharpton used this as an excuse to keep the burn of hatred alive, otherwise he would of and should of been long done and over with. His kind of hatred against people of color in particular white, should of been refuted by most,but instead he played on their emotions of everyone owes them something for being black.Completely opposite of MLK message. I have so many friends that see the Jacskon and Sharptons of our era as just old bitter agitators

This is a new age. PC can save a man from prison more than any defender.

So correct.

Amen.

To be honest though, the RINOs have been using that trick on us for a while.

They tell us what we want to hear at election time then go to fancy lunches with dems and get rich on lobbyist money and back deals.

And in the end, you have Harry Reid backing Paul Ryan.

Remind me of Animal Farm.

That’s still giving Sharpton too much credit. He has no goal of creating a better America. He’s a two-bit shakedown race hustler out to destroy (white) America.

Thanks.

Like the husband said at the end of Casablanca,

“This time I know our side will win” or something like that :)

I am amazed how some smart people are not afraid of rolling around with retarded liberal scum.

No, Dr. Carson, I don't believe you do. There's no way you can share goals with the likes of Al Sharpton.

If you think so you are stunningly naïve... Much more so than I feared.

I think you are a bit confused. Carson is running for president of the US, not pastor of your church or president of your national assembly.

Your argument is both ugly and foolish.

Not a justification for the silly responses.

Haven’t trusted Carson from early on; especially after his comments regarding gun ownership.

“Sharpton and I have the same goal: to build a brighter, stronger America that provides equal opportunities and access to the underserved and forgotten. However, we have a fundamental difference of opinion regarding the best way to achieve such an end.”

This is just Carson trying to avoid a confrontation with or about Sharpton, while at the same time stating that he doesn't share Sharpton’s views. What he said is very generic, and is what most of us believe anyway (e.g. equal opportunity, etc.). Carson's not my candidate of choice, but I would be perfectly happy to vote for him should he get the nomination. I think his central belief is that everyone should have the opportunity to work hard and achieve based on their own efforts and merits. He's in most ways the anti-Sharpton, but also knows that picking a fight with Sharpton at this point would be a harmful distraction.

Same goals as Sharpton? I wouldn’t vote for anyone that said that!

.

not quite a silly hit piece ...

Ben Carson was sent in to flood the GOP field ...

being black is an extra bonus ...

don’t get angry, because politics is indeed a gladiator blood sport ...

“promote a modern civil rights agenda that includes the fight for one standard of justice, decency and equal opportunities for all people regardless of race, religion, nationality or gender.”


We have this “thing” called the Constitution and the Bill of Rights. We need nothing more.

Oh! I forgot to mention the “other” Constitution and Bill of Rights for the “special” people.

EVERYONE in the U.S. has the right of a public education in grades 1 through 12. Those who don’t take it are doomed to their own decisions and we are not responsible for their bad decisions in any manner.

Black, green, red, and any color, it does not matter.
