When did the media meet to time the scheduling and intensity of the Carson Character Assassination full court press of 2015? It is certainly well underway. Bastards. Considering their velvet glove of Obama in 2097 and Hilkary today.

So Trump gets accused of being a narcissist because of his boasting, but is a closet humble, compassionate guy. We then find out that the humble guy is a closet narcissist who likes to embellish his career for no good reason.

He was not “white” either. He looked like most Arabs of today.

He sure has received a lot of awards and certificates. I guess hanging them is better than sticking them in an album some place. I think stars do this - have walls of awards, records, etc. I think Ben is proud of what he has achieved, and you might be right - maybe he is a narcissist. I dunno.

The picture with black Jesus just goes over the edge to me.

The only reason the other candidates would not have a similar wall, is because they are not as accomplished.

From what is shown, it is not a pretty place.

So what. I have a friend who was in the Olympics and his medals are displayed. I know lots of other people who do the same thing.

SO WHAT!

It doesn’t bother me. Most blacks think he is black, and Jesus’s skin was probably an olive color - not white. Who cares? Jesus looks at the heart anyway.

Every man’s house is a homage to himself, one way or the other.

At first, I thought the fireplace painting was (original) Shaft.

Maybe there’s an artist in the family.

1:30 into this video Carson says humility is “a big part of who I am.”

Really?
