Donald Trump asked Ben Carson to consider serving as secretary of Housing and Urban Development, an advisor to the former Republican presidential candidate said Tuesday. They discussed the potential job at a meeting in the morning and Carson is "seriously considering" it, said the advisor, Armstrong Williams. "It’s a role that plays to Dr. Carson’s passions," he said. Asked what qualifications the retired neurosurgeon has for overseeing housing policy, Williams said: “Dr. Carson has experience with everything. You’d be shocked at the depth of his experience.”

Step one: Find an expert with an impressive-sounding academic title to legitimize shoddy advocacy propaganda. Meet Brian Levin. He's the one-man band behind something called the "Center for the Study of Hate and Extremism" at California State University, San Bernardino. The "center" (that is: Levin) claims to be "nonpartisan" and "objective." But he is a former top staffer of the militant, conservative-smearing Southern Poverty Law Center, which was forced to apologize earlier this year after including famed black neurosurgeon and GOP 2016 candidate Ben Carson on its "extremist watch list" of hate groups. At SPLC, Levin infamously posited that the...

According to Dr. Ben Carson's business manager Armstrong Williams, Dr. Ben Carson will not serve in President-elect Donald Trump's administration, a separate source confirmed that Carson was being offered a position as Secretary of Health and Human Services (HHS). Williams told Circa that Dr. Carson thinks he can, "best serve the President outside the administration."

Ben Carson said he would help President-elect Donald Trump construct a replacement to Obamacare. “I think the replacement must obviously come first and it must be something that is very appealing and easy to understand,” he told Politico Wednesday. “And then, only then, would you dismantle what’s in place.” Carson declined to say whether he was being considered for a Cabinet position, but Politico reports that his name is being floated as a possible candidate for positions such as secretary of health and human services or secretary of education. Trump campaigned on replacing Obamacare with a simpler, cheaper alternative that...

Readers, please note: Dissuade any concerns or fears about appointments and key positions. Please ignore the media narratives, as they are spun in the same method and manner as their “media polls” for the same purposes, undermining. Remind yourself who Donald Trump is; and feel confident that for the first time, you really do have that guy heading to the White House. President Elect Donald J Trump doesn’t suffer with fools gracefully.

Just watching Johnny Carson Show that originally aired on 10/31/1980, the Friday before the 1980 election 4 days leater. Near the top of Carson's monologue he mentions the election and says: "How about this election? No one will call it, no papers, television...it's too close to call!" Nice for the oldies network to air this episode it again, particularly at this time!

Top Donald Trump adviser Ben Carson came to House Speaker Paul Ryan’s defense on Tuesday and criticized the GOP nominee for exacerbating an intra-party feud less than a month before the election. “Paul Ryan is being very pragmatic,” Carson said in an interview with The Hill. “He recognizes that if Donald Trump loses, Hillary Clinton needs a firewall so she can’t do whatever she wants. He wants to make sure to keep the firewall there, so he’s devoting his energy to doing that.” Trump laid into Ryan in a series of tweets on Tuesday morning, calling the Speaker “weak and...

Video LinkI get weak kneed watching Judge Jeanine. Well, ok, at 68 y/o I am weak kneed anyway, but she puts an extra spring in my step.;-)

Ben Carson: During the debate when I couldn't hear my name, everybody else walked by. Donald Trump stood there with me.

Dr. Ben Carson was a world-renowned neurosurgeon before he ran for President. If anyone understands the potential neurological issues facing Hillary after her collapse on 9/11, it’s him. Dr. Ben Carson told Buzzfeed he has real concerns about Hillary’s health: “In the case of Hillary Clinton, because she has had a brain injury in the past and there is a question of venous sinus thrombosis, the result of a recent specialized MRI would be very helpful. The stakes are too high for us to blindly elect someone to the presidency of the United States when we have the possibility of...

Comments, Opinions, Thoughts, Pro & Con Inpts, etc.

This morning Donald J. Trump and Doctor, Ben Carson head to Detroit today in a historic trip and interview relative the terrible living status of African-Americans in inner cities ghettos. No one can predict how Trump & Carson will be received. It certainly is a challenge for both men and the Black American community....which has been so abused both politically & economically for so many years of Democrat Party inner city leadership!!! Actually, whether Trump/Carson get a poor or fair reception means little. It is the Black community that is in highlight today!!! Failure upon the Black communities to welcome...

Ben Carson, the former neurosurgeon and past GOP presidential hopeful, suggested Wednesday that Khizr and Ghazala Khan, the parents of a fallen Muslim American war hero, slandered Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump. The Khans, whose son died fighting for the United States in Iraq, have garnered national attention for their appearance at the Democratic National Convention. The searing speech delivered by Khizr Khan condemned Trump and his anti-Muslim attitude. “I recognize that they are grieving, and very often they will say and do things out of that grief; I think we should just give them a pass and move on,”...

It says a lot about Donald Trump that his children are such delightful people, even though they were raised with the "disadvantage" of being very wealthy, Ben Carson said Thursday. "All of the Trump children are absolutely delightful people. And I think that speaks volumes about the man," he said, referring to the GOP nominee. "Anybody who can raise children, particularly in the environment they came up in, which I think is a disadvantaged environment. Because I know a lot of people who are very rich and their kids are so spoiled, and I think it's a disadvantage. I really...

And why telling the truth about her sounds like hate . . . because there's a lot to hate about the truth We’re hearing today from the political media - and even a few weak-kneed pastors - that it was “hate” for Ben Carson to associate Hillary with Lucifer via Saul Alinsky, as he did last night. This is partly because the political class and their media stenographers have no idea what to do with serious discussions of God, faith and the spiritual world as it really is. But it’s also the result of another phenomenon that’s unique to Hillary....

Republicans in the convention hall Tuesday night cheered as the former neurosurgeon speculated about a Democratic-Satanic alliance. It took Ben Carson just a few short minutes to move away from the teleprompter and toward the devil at the Quickens Loans Arena Tuesday. About half an hour after New Jersey Governor and fellow Trump primary victim Chris Christie staged a mock witch trial for Hillary Clinton, Carson strolled to the podium, beaming from ear to ear. "I'm not politically correct," Carson announced. "And I hate political correctness." From there, he abandoned his prepared remarks to talk about Saul Alinsky, the Democratic...
