I will rally around Carson when he puts forth his solutions to our nation’s problems. He hasn’t been doing that.
We should all rally around him anyway. That doesn’t mean you can’t vote for and support another candidate. We just can’t let the media get by with this hit job.
Politico was doing wheelies to conjoin the name “Ben Carson” with the word “Liar” in the same sentence. Say what you would about Gentle Ben, lying is not anything like a distinguishing trait.
But the good doctor has not had the practiced of confronting these pieces of disinformation that The Donald has been dealing with for decades now. The Donald just meets this flak and plunges right on through, sustaining surprisingly little damage, and never anything more than a momentary mark that swiftly fades.
This ,the pyramid thing, the new pandering urban radio rap ads and the cooked polls showing him ahead are the comedy relief of this campaign season.
Next he'll be doing MC Hammer knockoffs,
if they can keep him awake long enough.
(well, that whole hammer thing might be a little too close to home)
Well said. Shameful how many Freepers piled on in support of the GOP-e and their agenda yesterday.
We should all rally around him anyway.
I think he prefers this sort of thing — “Carson vs the big bad liberal media.” It distracts from him not putting up on issues.
I am sorry but I am tired of politicians trying to win personality contests. I want to hear how they plan to solve our nation’s real problems. It’s just my opinion but Carson hasn’t been putting up.
Amnesty-supporter Carson should get illegals to rally for him.
Can't wait for this time-wasting zero-qualifications racial token to get off the stage.
From the article, “We, Carson’s fellow conservatives, can’t let them get away with that. We need to rally the troops and come out in support of Carson – yes, even those of us who support other candidates (like myself, I’m all in for Ted Cruz). As a group we have to say: ‘Enough of this. We won’t allow you to destroy conservative minorities any longer.’”
Judging from the comments I’ve recently read on freerepublic their mission, unfortunately, is accomplished.
The lying-cheating-attacking liberal media is one of our nation’s biggest problems.
I will support him insofar as he is unfairly attacked by the media. But where were the calls from PJ Media and all the rest when Trump was attacked ... For FOUR MONTHS?
Carson isnt my guy...but we damn well better stand with him now! All the candidates have shown their support except TRUMP!!!!
We cannot let the media get away with this.
They can’t fix Hillary’s lying image so the next best thing is to try and paint conservative with the same awful color. All of the Carson attacks are lame. No one cares if he thinks the pyramids were use as disco dancing clubs or grain storage. Calling a free ride college deal a “scholarship” shocks no one except those who want to manufacture a scandal.
Good point. Trump, Carson, Cruz...all the rest need to be supported against the attacks of the left. It may be the only issue we can unite around.
I’m pretty much committed to Trump, but having said that, I wish he had shown some support for Carson, or had just STFU.
But he didn’t and people on this forum who disliked him, disliked him more...and those of us who like him, scratch our heads and realize something.
This country is big trouble, largely due to the left agenda of Ted Kennedy and others, that has gone pretty much unchecked by our republican in office including the president. In this sense Bush was a disaster.
We don’t need a nice person to do the job. I’m sorry to say, we’re going to need a tough mouthed New York style street fighter who gives it and takes it.
I can assure you that if Trump is able to easily bash his opponent, esp in the case of nice guy Carson, he will go after the likes of Hillary Clinton like there is no tomorrow.
I think he was mostly factual with CArson, who did admit to some wrong doing when young, and playing lose with the facts about West POint. I mean are they important in the scheme of things...? I think they are.
If we learn that Trump molested women in college, and in his employ, or embezzled money.. it would be the same thing.
FAct is, the man wants to hold all of us to a higher standard.
I think it’s going to be Trump/Cruz ticket, because frankly, I don’t think Trump respects anyone else at this point.
lol, looks like Kira is working on a Trump hairdo!
Whoa – Carson Supports Obama Trade – Aligns Position With Establishment GOPe (Jeb, Rubio, Fiorina, Kasich, Christie)…
Candidate Ben Carson’s support for Obama Trade (TPP) is a massive divergence from most conservatives and now puts him in direct opposition to Donald Trump.
Still backing the trade legislation are the party’s establishment wing candidates: Sen. Marco Rubio and former Gov. Jeb Bush of Florida and Govs. John Kasich of Ohio and Chris Christie of New Jersey.
Carson is the hope of the GOPe to take down Trump.
If we ‘rally around Ben Carson’ we will do the Republican Establishment’s bidding.
