Ben Carson on CNN: Topic Planned Parenthood
I do really appreciate this man temperament and intelligence. This country can do far worse than this level headed, intelligent man for its next President.
While we're very happy to have you in the Gulch and appreciate your wanting to fully engage, some things in the Gulch (e.g. voting, links in comments) are a privilege, not a right. To get you up to speed as quickly as possible, we've provided two options for earning these privileges.

I know where you're coming from but there is more than a year before the election. Why not used all of this time to get a fuller ideas of the character of each of these people. I don't see how it hurts.
Without real penalties for breaking the oaths (e.g., recall and forfeiture of office) there will be little motivation for improvement. The day when the conscience and integrity of the 'public servant' was effective is long gone.
If the presidential debates are to move in the direction of government improvement and not get lost in the religious cloud and hatred over abortions, the government, what used to be congress, must decide if abortion is murder and therefore illegal. Not the candidates who have no official stand. Until that time, we are all going to lose the chance to break the socialist/media domination of the discussion. Let the law decide and if enough oppose the law, change it. Wasting precious government time on religious issue has to stop or we will end up like the Muslim countries with violence and hatred controlling all activities . Make the winners swear their oaths of office on the Constitution, not some religious text. I want them, to swear to uphold the Law... not their religion.
Humanity doesn't appear to be ready for the likes of Dr. Ben Carson. Interesting to see how the CNN commentator changes the subject as Carson shoots him down.
Carson: "I thought that they were supposed to get all those things based on Obamacare."
Zing!
PS - There isn't a PP clinic in the nation who offers mammograms. They refer those out.
I do not think Carson will survive the GOP hit-squads and make it to the nomination. The shame of it is he is the type of man, intelligent and concise and steadfast in his conviction, that would assemble a brilliant team that could repair this country..of this I have zero doubt.
Don't let the media set the agenda because they have a bias toward big socialist government.
Ignore these inane questions that are a a misdirection and distraction!
