Dr. Carson, are you certain you are looking at the US Constitution?
Carson should drop out he’s an idiot.
Bye Carson, you had your 15 minutes, you’re not qualified, and your not a contender.

The ambassador from Tripoli tells John Adams and Thomas Jefferson that the Barbary States have a religious duty to wage war on non-Muslim nations.
Dec. 8, 2015
From a March 28, 1786, letter written by John Adams and Thomas Jefferson, who were American diplomats at the time, to U.S. Secretary of Foreign Affairs John Jay reporting on their conversation in London with the ambassador from Tripoli regarding piracy by the Barbary States:
We took the liberty to make some enquiries concerning the ground of their pretensions to make war upon nations who had done them no injury, and observed that we considered all mankind as our friends who had done us no wrong, nor had given us any provocation.
The Ambassador answered us that it was founded on the laws of their Prophet; that it was written in their Koran; that all nations who should not have acknowledged their authority were sinners; that it was their right and duty to make war upon them wherever they could be found, and to make slaves of all they could take as prisoners; and that every Mussulman [Muslim] who was slain in battle was sure to go to Paradise.

The President has authority to do this. Congress could also do this with a President who would sign the law. That’s why nothing will be done until Obama is out of office.
I’m so tired of being told that I’m not “who we are.”
I guess he don’t care about Muzzies “alienating” the American people.
Don’t worry folks, Belt Buckle Ben will protect America.
But only if ISIS tries to change the radio station.
Yep. All I need to know.
Dr. Carson is a nice guy, but he will soon be relegated to the kiddie table.
I’m sick of the ‘not who we are.’
If getting shot down is what’s required to be PC, screw it.
Carson needs to bow out. He’s tanking in the polls. He’s a weak man at a time we need a strong minded leader. Go back to the operating room, Dr. Carson!
I think Ben woke up one morning & decided he was no longer interested in campaigning.
Ben Carson flunks "Constitution".
Ouch. He has some really lousey advisors.
It’s sad when Republican’s start lying about their own.
Hey Ben! We’re awake, numbnuts.
Trump has not banned Muslims. Trump has proposed a ban on Muslim immigrants.
Obama, who can do something, has not.
Yes, it’s absolutely amazing how little these people worry about whether Muslims are alienating American citizens.
“Not who we are” is the most vapid phrase since “Hope and Change”.
freedom of religion to Americans not non Americans. Also the Constitution is for Americans.
Wish these people would get off their PC crap. it is not who we are, give me a break.
