Fox dropped him as a "contributor". I'm sure he will be on as a candidate. It was the right thing to do.

Would you let him operate on your skull? Yes.

Marry your daughter? Sure. Why not? Except for his age, he seems like a decent guy. Originally Posted by Yssup Rider

YES, I have taken in everything I can about this fine gentleman, since he spoke at the Breakfast Prayer. Probably one of the most decent human beings to think about running for office since…………HMMMMM,since, I don't don't know when.

IMHO, he can bring people together, he is not so egotistical, that he won't speak/listen to the people who know more than he does on any given issue, he wants "the people" all people of America to have the same rights, and get up and rebuild America, with our own power, not taking the power/money from someone else who worked hard for it, that being said, he is not opposed to a "bridge" for the down trodden.

Why does he need a teleprompter? He speaks from his heart, what he truly believes, not what some billionaire who is paying for him to be office wants.

Lastly, diplomacy, this gentleman is the epitome of diplomacy, to watch him speech to a person of a different viewpoint and respect it and put his view "out there" is quite captivating, (well, at least for me)

Religion????, who should give a s--t, that is why we live in America, so we can all bring a piece of pie to the table. I have never once seen him push "his God" on anyone, certainly no more than I speak of "my God" which, BTW, Spiritualist and believe in the "oneness" of the Universe.

IMHO, and my lengthy readings on this fine gentleman, I believe him to be much to principled, and unbribable, that being said, it is definitely possible and probable that the Koch brothers will throw their dime into the pot. Will Dr Carson kowtow, I'd put my 2 cents to the negative.

Let me guess, Cherie. You think he's a fine gentleman, right?
Yes Sir, I believe him to be a total gentleman, in that,

A gentleman is one who puts more into the world than he takes out.

LOL, first off, what other Republican candidate? Secondly, yes, I certainly have a very high esteem for this gent, and the love of his/our country, and the vision he has, to bring us back to the Unity, we once had. Need we all agree on every issue, but, of course not, that would be silly and it wouldn't be The United States of America, but to be able to agree to disagree, and still hold that "Focus" aka focal point of that Unity of The United States of America. There is an old axiom used that "we the people" have forgotten, due to all the bickering in this nation, that needs to be brought to the forefront once again, and that is, "United we stand, divided we fall". For, unless we "the people " are united, we will most surely defeated. Has anyone not noticed lately, the hatred of world toward us?? It is certainly, no secret, in fact it is quite overt.
If you have the opportunity to read his newest book "One Nation" do it, but most importantly, do it without any politico bigotry.

Damn! I like the way this woman thinks.

Being a fellow Floridian, I would be interested in your opinion of a person I think could be an ideal running mate...
