Quick answer, I believe, the amalgamation of Dr Carson and Mitt Romney, would be a most exemplary representation for the Republican Party, with Romney's business acumen, (not much of a public speaker though) not being ego driven (when you know who you are, your ego doesn't control you) love of our Nation, which should be the fundamental principle of anyone who we hire to influence the course of events in this great Nation.

I believe he and Dr Carson would make one hell of a team, as one of his peers, Dr Goodman so succinctly states, “His peers view him as a caring and compassionate individual who is capable of making tough decisions, communicating with patients and colleagues,” he said. “Most importantly, he is a man of his word, who thinks clearly and acts decisively – important qualities for any physician or any president.” http://humanevents.com/2014/09/28/go...use-residency/

Being the person that he is and not driven by ego, (he will listen to people who have the expertise and the knowledge on any given subject, and make an "informed decision") also, being a man who speaks from the heart and not a teleprompter, he can certainly answer "off the cuff" with a great deal of diplomacy, which needs to be brought back by our leaders, if we wish to bring Unity to our people and to our country.

Somewhere in this "pot of gold" I believe that Herman Cain fits, due to the fact that he has numerous degrees in mathematics and, of course very few people are aware that he is a mathematician of ballistics.

With this trifecta, IMHO, The United States of America could very well be on a "healing course" that "we the people" could once again be proud of.

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. Originally Posted by Cherie

Take more than that to rile me right now IFFY. I got Merle Haggard live in Austin playing on Willies Roadhouse on Sirus, I'm driving around with a big dip reliving to good olé days!

You're the self-admitted racist. Not me.

It's principles and policies that matter. Not skin color. We've been trying to get you to understand that for six years. Is it ever going to sink into that lame brain of yours?

Voting for some Uncle Tom does not prove you are not racist. Not that you will vote for the SOB....why you might ask because you and yours will not vote for him in the primary.

Shit I'd love to see the GOP trot out a Carson/West ticket!
With all due respect, Sir (I do understand your not speaking to me, but, being of an opinionated nature, I feel the need to respond), I do not understand why some people in our society, (if the shoe fits, wear it) wish to continue to bring up the "race card", when they feel the need to "attack" the "other side". Maybe if looked at with an unlocked panorama, it might be seen, that it is not the color of one's skin, that is the issue, but quite possibly, "the mindset", which I did study quite extensively in my schooling.
There are 2 types of mind sets to be considered, the "fixed mindset" and the "growth mindset", unfortunately many in our society and our sub-cultures are stuck in the "fixed mindset, for the so called victim and the perpetrators of those victims, it is used as simply a scapegoat, so one does not have to move on and can remain being the victim, oh, it soo much easier than the change, (change is always challenging, whether good or bad). Now, for the unwonted mindset of "growth", meaning to move forward, and not allow the past to impede upon our development as humans or even human race (simple case in point might be the Wright Brothers, for without their mindset of moving forward and flying, we wouldn't be where we are today in the exploration of space).

Unfortunately though, whether it purposely, or for the edification of ones own purse strings (think Al Sharpton) or unknowingly, being made to feel guilty by our media, about what happened a 100 yrs or more ago, the perpetrator of the so called victims are certainly not doing them any favors, they are keeping them "locked in chains". As said earlier, "the victims" don't know how to move forward, and when one cannot express themselves, that expression comes out in ways that are usually violent/name calling etc., in nature. It is only with ability to grow, can one truly express and be understood. When that is accomplished, we have a person satisfied with a certain level of achievement, hence, no longer a need for name calling/violence etc.

So please think before you call one a racist, it has absolutely nothing to do with the color of one's skin, (that "fixed mindset" is amid all races) it is the mindset that we should be doing battle with.
