“it is unwise to overlook the fact that Dr Ben has the finest intellect and control of the language of any candidate in modern memory”
Why is that only evident to you?
because I have actually heard him and seen him in the flesh and most here pick up on the Free Republic doctrine de jour actually knowing little or nothing
It’s evident to me, too.
Carson's intellect is so fine that it couldn't even grasp (or bother to grasp) the difference between Secretary of the Treasury and Chairman of the Federal Reserve. Nor did that formidable intellect bother to learn that Lithuania, Estonia, and Latvia have been members of NATO for years. Carson reminds me a bit of Herman Cain, who was warning us 4 years ago that China was just days away from building its first atomic bomb.
Ben Carson, like Cain, is the beneficiary of the GOP's own special brand of affirmative action. If either of these guys were white, they would be forgotten footnote fringe candidates. But because a lot of Republicans want to bend over backwards and prove to the world how non-racist they are, they manage to be front runner in the polls for a while.

I agree, and as far as control of the language is concerned I would never agree. First of all, who can even hear what Carson is mumbling about?
He is also FAR to cozy with the likes of Al Sharpton. THAT disqualifies him totally.
