I think you're on to something there. Obviously, Dr. Carson is a very smart guy, accomplished in his field and that is not a universally transferable kind of smart. I still gotta give him his props for his National Prayer Breakfast smackdown he laid on The One, though.
SNCC was an important part of the real civil rights moveent (the one in the 60’s) and Julian Bond was a major force in that movement. What he became later isn’t the issue... Carson’s right on this...
The most hard core right wingers I know were once liberals. They are like ex-smokers.
