A “gotcha” question that was handled badly.
Trump, Fiorina and Cruz handle these well. Carson does not.
Wrong answer: “It’s hard to say. I probably, knowing who he was, I probably just would have arrested him.”
(Speculation and a display of ignorance. Carson defaults to the MSM lies because that is all he knows.)
Right answer: “The Justice Department found that Darren Wilson reacted as best as he could. I am not in Officer Wilson’s shoes.”
(Facts. Only facts. Ends any re-phrased gotcha questions.)
Carson is kept alive by the blacks and those that are too soft on what America needs.
I believe if Carson got elected (and he won’t), he’d be like Colin Powell in the race department. He’s halfway there already.
Does Dr. Ben know that “hands up, don’t shoot” didn’t happen?
“....only foreigners from the Third World are willing to work on farms.”
FUBC! I’m getting sick of the “he’s got a good heart” meme as well. The guy is onboard the Cheap Labor Express, an anti-gunner, and it sure seems like he’s thrown his support behind the BLM criminals too! Go away Ben!
He’s made a few bad comments within the last few days. I’ll be interested to see what his polling numbers are with this week’s data included.
He’s another Colin Powell. Be afraid.
“only foreigners from the third world are willing to work on farms”.
I’ll have you know Mr. Good Doctor; I am not from some third world sh#thole and I work on my farm every single goddamn day.
I wouldn’t have some criminal damn wetback on my farm if I got the labor for free.
They say we can’t deport them; fine, then lets just shoot them.
Gosh, I sure would like another arrogant, know-it-all black guy to lecture down to me for the next four to eight years.
Does Right Wing News think we really need a surgeon general?
Can’t some other bureaucrat put the warnings on cigarettes?
Carson didn’t stumble. Instead we were too ENTRANCED by the thought of a respectable black being president that we didn’t bother to find out just who he was.
Now we know.
The $4 tomato canard is easily destroyed with a simple 30 second mental exercise. A man can easily pick 500 tomatoes in an hour. Assuming his wages increase by $10 per hour that means the cost per tomato picked is increased by 2 cents. This will hardly lead to much of a price increase at the supermarket. Carson again fails in even the most simple economic problem solving.
People will do farm labor. Farmers need to pay a living wage. I work part time on a fruit and vegetable farm.Not one of us is an illegal. I absolutely love it. It’s being outside, hard work that keeps me strong and healthy. They pay a good wage for good help. The only problem is it’s not year round work. So some leave and go to the local mountain in the winter and work the ski lifts. There is unemployment available to those that don’t hold another job.
As far as the $4.00 tomato, if you go to a local farmers market and get one , you’re going to pay that much.

Carson is clueless the real question is who put him in the arena to run is he another Obama with a R after his name.
A smattering of statistics can be teased out of data made public in other states heavily impacted by illegal immigration, although a full picture or apples-to-apples comparison remains elusive.
In Florida, there were 5,061 illegal immigrant inmates in state prison facilities as of June 30, but neither the state Department of Corrections nor the Florida Department of Law Enforcement track the number in county prisons, spokesmen for those agencies told FoxNews.com.
In Illinois, where state prisons house 46,993 inmates, some 3,755 are illegal immigrants, according to Illinois Department of Corrections figures. Once again, state officials do not compile figures for county jails, although a Cook County official estimated that nearly 6 percent were illegal immigrants.
In Arizona, neither state public safety officials nor the governor’s office could produce figures showing the number of criminal illegal immigrants held in county jails, but state prison figures released by the Arizona Department of Corrections show out of 42,758 prisoners held in state facilities in July, about 10.8 percent were illegal immigrants.
In California, there were 128,543 inmates in custody as of Aug. 12, but the state, which has been criticized for its leniency toward illegal immigrants, no longer keeps track of the citizenship status of inmates. As of July 31, 2013, the last time figures were documented, there were as many as 18,000 “foreign-born” citizens in California state prisons of 133,000 incarcerated.
