The time period these ads were being released was the same era Dr. Carson was referring to. I’m not sure how old you are, and it doesn’t matter except for context. The Army and all branches wanted more minorities as leaders in those years. The ad fits those times I well remember.

I’m not arguing, I’m just interested in the history and wonder if Dr. Carson might be telling the truth. He’s not my guy, nor is Trump, so I’m not invested in either one. In fact, today when I read the headlines I believed everything Politico published. Later I read some snippets from Rush and I began to think about it. This evening while listening to Levin, I heard him say these ads were run nationally during that time. I thought holy crap, they (left) have done a hit on Carson. So I dug some more...and find the ad I posted to you.

I’m just trying to keep my wits about me, this is a very unstable time for America, our emotions are apt to get inflamed, lots of powerful people are reacting...lies, rumors, crap being spread about anyone on the right...
