Even so, there are a legion of self-flagellating white guilters out there who will support him no matter what. That is why his poll numbers continue to stay where they are, when they should be down there around those of Graham.

I would listen,” Carson continued, “because this country is of, for and by the people - not of, for and by the government.”

Yeah, American people, not every ill, aging, unskilled, foreign felon in the western hemisphere who wants to hop on the federal gravy train.

Speaking of Rubio, did you hear him on Mark Levin’s show last night? He was talking like he wanted to build a wall, etc., etc. - what a liar! His answers to mark were so canned and didn’t come from the heart - he was reciting his rhetoric. It sounded like he was nervous too, because I think he had to take several drinks of water during the interview. He’s trying to steal Trump’s platform - I don’t understand why people can’t see through this charlatan.

Anybody who would believe that Rubio will build a wall is drinking too much of something stronger than water.

Only a few weeks ago he was giving a speech to a Spanish immigration advocacy group assuring them that he was still for amnesty.

Yep! Carson and Rubio have confirmed they want amnesty. Great snooker on Trump’s part.

The “pay a penalty” is the one that gets me. Although many come to work, many come to get our government handouts. Anyone who believes they are ban from our government programs is not facing reality. An example is Obama’s Aunt Zeituni who lived in public housing until she died last year. Are they going to pay this penalty with our tax payer subsidies too?

Pay a Penalty is just a way to pretend they have not really broken our laws by coming here.

He pandered to the conservative wing, now he’s pandering to the left. Why doesn’t he just run as a Dem and be done with it.

Ben Carson made massive real estate profits from ties with convicted felon

"If they have a pristine record, there's no reason they can't get registered, pay a back tax penalty and pay taxes going forward, and be able to remain here as guest workers," said Carson, who currently sits fourth in the Examiner's latest power rankings.

Like all the back taxes for illegals folks, Ben fails to tell us if the many who would qualify for EITC would be able to collect it.

But I guess he's not going to make them learn English like Jeb.

"If a majority of Americans say, 'it really doesn't offend my sense of justice, and yes we actually want those people to become citizens,' I would listen," Carson continued, "because this country is of, for and by the people - not of, for and by the government."

In other words, Ben would hear whatever he wants to hear.

Carson will slip as people begin to realize he is nothing.

“slams” is not a word I would use when describing anything out of Mr. Mumbles’ mouth.

I think it is possible that there may be conservative republicans who genuinely believe that creating a “pathway” to citizenship is a fair way to deal with illegals.

But, the problem, as everyone on this site knows, is:

If the government is unwilling to follow the law as it is RIGHT NOW, why should we believe they will follow any future law regarding illegal immigration?

Before any discussion of any other policy takes place, the following needs to occur first:

- Close the border first.
- Enforce the law as it exists NOW.
- Stop funding freebees to illegal people here in the U.S.
(this one thing alone would encourage many illegals to
“self-deport”).
- Stop hiring illegal immigrants.
- Fine businesses who willingly hire illegals till it hurts.
- Immediately deport criminals who are illegal.

You can take the black man out of the ghetto but you can’t take the ghetto out of the black man.

"Oh well, after getting their fingers burned enough even the most stubborn children learn."

No they don't. I suspect there are thousands of Carson supporters on FR, seething at reading his negative press.

They just like him.
