I saw America that night, folks – the America I grew up with in Pumphrey, Maryland, a black suburban community outside Baltimore. The unspoken philosophy of our tiny all black community was education, hard work, respect for elders and God. Pumphrey birthed numerous successful blacks. My sister-in-law’s brother Butch Keaser from Pumphrey was the first black wrestler to win an Olympic medal. We kept score at sporting events in Pumphrey. There were winners and losers. Such is real life. Rev. Lemon was pastor of the Baptist church. My dad, Rev. Lloyd E. Marcus, was pastor of the Methodist church. Pete...

Ben Carson, the retired neurosurgeon who briefly led the Republican presidential race before his campaign began an extended public implosion, will tell his supporters in a statement Wednesday afternoon that he does not see a "path forward" and will not attend Thursday's debate in Detroit, according to two Republicans familiar with his plans. Carson, however, will not formally suspend his campaign.

It appears that the media outlets have already begun to leak exit data about Super Tuesday results. It seems fairly predictable so far. In the same way, what will happen with the Trump and Cruz haters in the media is also predictable. They will deny any victories on the part of either man by comparing it to what some talking head thinks "should have happened". We know that that has been a big part of their playbook to date, and we know that Marco Rubio is their establishment guy. They will pull out all the stops tonight, because he appears...

A few horse-racey thoughts before Super Tuesday. To pre-empt the usual objections, let me emphasize that what follows concerns itself not with my personal preferences but with what is electorally likely: ~Donald Trump seems set for a pretty super day, winning at least ten of the twelve states, and more likely eleven, or possibly a full sweep. The exceptions are Ted Cruz's home state of Texas (where there is conflicting polling evidence) and perhaps, if you cling to the pre-Nevada conventional wisdom about Trump's organizational weakness in caucus states, Minnesota. But a ten-state victory for Trump will still be a...

Retired neurosurgeon Ben Carson told supporters Saturday in Irving that he has heard plenty of calls to drop out of the Republican presidential primary. Some "special interests" have even made personal appeals to him, he said. "I've got unanswered calls on my phone right now, 'Oh, if you did this or did this, and did this, or if you drop out and support this guy, we'll give you all this money and we'll make sure you're a senator here,'" Carson said.

In his remarks today at a rally in Fort Worth, Tex., Donald Trump knew he’d make news. “I’ve never said this before,” he declared. We’ll await the word of the Washington Post Fact Checker on the integrity of the statement, but Trump did appear to be veering into a new talking point. A media-law talking point, that is: One of the things I’m going to do, and this is going to make it tougher for me…but one of the things I’m going to do if I win…is I’m going to open up our libel laws so when they write purposely...
