Ben Carson, retired neurosurgeon turned conservative star, has confirmed that he will seek the Republican presidential nomination in 2016.
Carson, who has never run for public office, is expected to be the only high-profile African-American to enter the GOP’s presidential primary as he tries to parlay his success as an author and speaker into a competitive campaign against established politicians.
“I’m willing to be part of the equation and therefore, I’m announcing my candidacy for president of the United States of America,” he said in an interview aired Sunday night by Ohio’s WKRC television station.
He is set to make a more formal announcement during a speech from his native Detroit on Monday.

Just admit neither I nor Carson lied when he spoke his words. Is it that hard? You won’t ‘win’ this. People can read here. your grudge with me matters not a bit.
So no. I don't know that he isn't against life under some circumstances.
You can quit being so sensitive when your candidate is obviously going to lose because he doesn't have any real support in the way of $$s.
Hit dog yelps.
And your anti-Cruz agenda is showing.
Your posting history says everything that needs to be said.

He and Bert often appear on the same threads. They also have a remarkable similarity in positions. Almost like a script. “Bash those that refuse to allow us to spread bullshit”.
The perfection meme was BS started by the GOP-E.
It never did have any basis in reality. The GOP-E wants to claim lack of perfection in Romney when Romney is against guns, life, and for illegal immigration, big government and socialized medicine.
Romney wasn't imperfect, he was a freaking liberal.

I'm glad I can send money to Cruz without having to go through them.
And I NEVER send money to a politician. Until Cruz.

Artcore once admitted I was correct about Romney then a couple days later denied it. And fought about it. Then he himself posted the very post proving he had when told I’d do it for him. Then tried to make excuses over it.
He was a loud voice pushing ‘lesser evil’ and screaming “Purist”.
THE AGENDA IS SOMETHING CALLED TRUTH. Especially here!
It’s that damn simple.
And I’m voting for Cruz. Now please get lost.
Whatever blows your skirt up lib.
You’ll make Rove haZ a sad Johnny. A sad. Thats wrong man....
Your agenda is showing. Looking at your long term posting says everything that needs to be said.
Personal attacks won't get you anywhere.
/johnny
A good man who has been told too many times he should run for an office he is ill prepared for.
False moral equivalence.
One thing you need to remember is that Carson is no longer a private person.
As a public person, Carson has a different set of rules to deal with.
If you can't see that, that's on you.
/johnny
Sober up!
He’s not drunk. He’s liberal.
That's rich coming from someone who implies that a man who has done more for living, breathing children than you will ever dream of actually supports killing babies thru abortion.
I don't have to make you get lost.
You already are.
Shame on you.
So it’s ok to lie about someone who is a public person? We have different views of integrity and character.
He does that every time he gets called on his crap. Maybe not the kid molesting crap, but it’s always something DU worthy.
I wonder how many people that drives away from FR.
Again, what lie? Shoe it. Cut and paste.
