When I was in college I was given Dr. Carson's book "Gifted Hands" as a Christmas gift and I found it very inspiring. It's sad to see what has become of him.

The ultimate hypocrisy is that if Barack Obama hadn't been elected president no one in the Republican Party would be taking him seriously as a candidate. It's almost as if they believe since 1 inexperienced black guy can win the presidency they can prop up an even less experienced black guy themselves and win minority votes since minorities just see color and not issues. They must have forgotten why black people left the Republican Party in the 1960's.

Mia Love is another example of hypocrisy that Republicans are willing to accept in the name of "diversity". Her parents basically overstayed a tourist visa and she gained citizenship by virtue of being born here, making her an anchor baby. She also won't address how her parents became citizens, since they probably were legalized thanks to the Reagan amnesty of the 1980's. For her to push that same false narrative about her parents "never taking a dime from the government", although her parents were illegal immigrants and should have been deported (according to Republican views on immigration), is an insult to common sense.

The irony of the Republicans propping Carson/Love up is that if they were to run for some national office they wouldn't win any significant portion of minority voters because black/women voters see through the hypocrisy that they represent. Diversity is not just having someone of a difference race espousing the same views but it's having someone with a different background or perspective that helps to change the views.

The Ozombies are throwing a "Racist Liberal Privilege" party... again

So what's your remembrance of why blacks left the Republican Party in the 60s?

Typical Tea Partier; he got his... the rest of us are on our own Originally Posted by wellendowed1911

I don't think he meant that Government intervention should be cut out entirely, but regulated instead. People milk government programs for way to long. It becomes a way of life instead of temporary assistance. Besides Carson certainly did give something back, lets face that fact.

Another faux bro in Dallas is going to blame the children for the sins of their parents. He wants to blame Ben Carson for decisions his mother made and Mia Love for what her parents did. Isn't your party that one who want to REWARD illegals for committing crimes and you USE the children as some kind of rational for breaking the law. Talk about hypocrites...

I am Pro-life and I told you I am a registered Independent- but the way Dr.Carson has talked the past years you would believe he has achieved all of his success with little to no govt assistance. I wonder how ironic it will be for a man like Dr.Carson to talk about cutting Food Stamps when in reality it was Food stamps that allowed him to eat 3 meals a day.

If someone grows up under a system, recognizes it's shortcomings, they are never allowed to talk about it. It seems to me that a person like that has a better insight on such institutions.

You act like a black conservative is some kind of oxymoronic freak or an affront to nature. Why are you so intolerant of diversity of political viewpoints among blacks? Republicans don't prop up people like Ben Carson or Mia Love. They join the party on their own out of conviction because they agree with conservative principles and aren't afraid to question failed liberal dogmas. And as a practical matter, they know blacks will be better served if they have sway in both political parties, instead of letting one party take their support for granted.

It seems to me that you are the one who needs to expose himself to more diversity of opinion.
