WILTON, Iowa (AP) — Republican presidential candidate Ben Carson likens his learning foreign policy to his ability to absorb changing complex medical practices. But Carson is standing by his support for monitoring groups he describes as "anti-American" and keeping Syrian refugees out of the United States.
Carson has been pushed into the spotlight as he's among the leaders in national, and early voting state Republican polls. And yet, some have criticized the retired celebrated neurosurgeon as having insufficient grasp of foreign policy.
Referring to critics, Carson said Sunday at a meeting of about 400 eastern Iowa GOP activists: "They say 'Carson doesn't know anything about foreign affairs.'"
Carson pointed to the continuing medical education all physicians are required to obtain as a sign of his capacity to learn, and said he would seek help from advisers.
"It doesn't matter, because what is really needed is a clear understanding of what the problems are and the ability to work with very talented people that we have," he said. "The world is changing very quickly. We have to be willing to continually update our knowledge and adjust to the things that are going on in our country."

so you're saying Rubio's a hottie?
He's just a puppet, who is out of his depth.
LOL!
It is a Christian thing to be on both sides of the picture. The side that calls to account, and the side that supports unto repentance.
This idea of a forced polarized choice is worldly, and denies the Cross.
He won't even win the Florida primary...should he last that long.
[snicker]
Carson is in this for the money. He keeps everything in the coffers. He can give it to the party or a favorite charity...like own “charity”.
And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.
He’s also in it to make money for his handlers; especially John Philip Sousa IV.
You got me.
Eminent Domain.
(Not the first time I’ve done that either.)
I am and he’s a fine man.
Something which you don’t understand, ergo shouldn’t really attempt to talk about.
Does a "fine man" like Al Sharpton and claim that he has the SAME GOALS as Sharpton?
We still, barely, have freedom of speech so whoever you are,
why should you feel you have the right to tell anyone what
they should be talking about?
NO way is Rubio a ‘hottie’. I can’t get past his gigantic EARS! He looks like dumbo, which is strangely apropos, considering. Won’t get my vote, it’s Trump, Cruz, or bust.
For Pete’ sake, my best friend committed armed robbery, but still is my best friend I love dearly.
He should not be president IMO, but he has accomplished more in his life than most and tries to be the right kind of human being. That appears to not be good enough for some of the perfect humans here at FR.
Just WHERE, pray tell, have I posted that you don't have the "right" to post the tripe you post?
Have I posted falsities?
NO !
Your “best friend” committed armed robbery ?
And THAT has WHAT to do with this thread’s topic?
“so you’re saying Rubio’s a hottie?”
Only to those soccer moms who enjoy “50 shades of Grey”. What a disgusting notion. He is effeminate in the worst possible way.
