I’m beginning to consider Carson as perfect for the position of Surgeon General.

I’m not really buying him as President.

For now. Things change from time to time.

Hi! Been out most of the day!

Great discussion by y’all today. Fox News doesn’t have All Stars—the Free Republic Sunday Show Threads DOES!!!

Anyway, about Carson...

I think we all liked him because when Obama ran, the black community embraced him way too much. Blacks who were conservative and/or Republican flocked to him—not because of his policies—but because of them having the same skin color. It was racist, but they’ll never see it that way. My barometer is to reverse the colors. Would it be racist then? Maybe, maybe not, but you’d be living on another planet if you don’t think the media wouldn’t say it!

Anyway, suddenly we had one black man, a brilliant doctor, successful, smart, not a celebrity, who stood up to Obama and told him off! Not for his skin color, that was irrelevant; but no, spoke truth to power for Obama’s terrible policies and beliefs which hurt the black community, the white community and all the communities that make up America.

Here was one man who didn’t play the race brother card and told it like it was—Doctor Ben Carson.

I sincerely like and respect him, and I agree with so many of the things he believes in but I do not think he is the President of the United States we need at this time.
