Ben Carson is for a religious theocracy
Ben Carson is not for freedom, he is for enslaving people and he is not intellectually honest since he thinks "our founders were Christians."

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 never met a Christian who wants to shred the Constitution.
Though Carson is highly intelligent, his recent statement about Biblical Joseph building the pyramids to store grain is mentally way out there lost in wacko land.
A couple of weeks previously, I received donation snail mail with a dollar in it and Carson stating that his campaigning team "think I am crazy for" sending the dollar to stress a need for contributions or whatever the heck he wrote exactly.
I sent only the dollar back with a note that I resent being guilt manipulated even by charitable organizations and almost always keep the money.
I added that I was going to vote for Carson but now that one dollar guilt trip ploy had me swinging back to Trump.
That wacko statement about Joseph seals the deal.
And I do still like a couple of other candidates who fail to climb up in the polls.
That sure does not include weird-eyes Sir Jeb.of the Royal House of Bush.
We, western civilization, owes much, its very existence, to Christianity. That is fact.
They went after Trump when he was #1. Now its Carson's turn. The other Repubs are non events. The media loves liberals probably because they spend lots of money and the media will benefit from that. who knows..... I am voting for Trump if he makes it to the election- at least he isnt backed by anyone that I can see.
Is faith an important driver in Dr. Carson's life? Absolutely. But there is a huge difference between that and forcing it on others.
And by the way, Carson is dead on when he states that the Founders were overwhelmingly Christians. See: http://www.adherents.com/gov/Founding... for a list of every single founder and their declared affiliation.
-1 for a baseless attack post. You don't have to like Dr. Carson or vote for him, but both of your accusations here are patently false.
You may want to check writings of Founding Fathers and reassess your position. Case in point: "We have no government armed with power capable of contending with human passions unbridled by morality and religion . . . Our Constitution was made only for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other." John Adams
Our Founding Fathers were most assuredly Christians. They did not, however, want an established federal religion/church (at state level was perfectly fine, though).
To address your point, though, what has Ben Carson said that makes you think he's for a religious theocracy?
Adding to his intellectual dishonesty; what he has done his whole adult life has required a scientific mind and confidence in his own abilities. Now he is willing to give credit for all of that to a god, even though in the debates he is willing to say "I did that". Imagine the contradictions in his head.
Carson has never stated anything other that he is an accomplished man of faith. He has stated that he will not support a theocracy, Christian or otherwise. He's also stated that the Constitution trumps religion. But lets sensationalize fears and go against his words, without cause. Thus far Carson is an intelligent man of honor and integrity..thats seems not enough for some rational thinkers. Our Founders were essentially Christian, Deism is still a belief in a God.

As for conservative? Together they are the controlling majority. When a group such as the Government Party Coalition takes power they take steps to keep power. Completely controlling the elections, fortifying the whole voting system and looting the votes with winner take all. There are a number of wikpedia and other articles that state the progression to a totalitarian government from a two party system of government from a multi party system. An accurate road map.
Conservative in their new found power in that they make change slowly if at all, and only when it suits them. Especially the left of the left who find comfort in being very very ultra conservative now that they are the inside of the in crowd. Their penchant for disobeying the Constitution is in seeing how long they can hoodwink the public into thinking there is still such a document.
The new attack is over 'a period.' that's coming up in Reframing 201 Addressing Key Issues and was touched on in 102. Liberal? Yes in the sense they are still moving left into a totalitarian Dear Leader Daddy State after destroying the nuclear traditional family. In short...you hit the nail on the head with a 10 pound sledge. For me it's a race to the finish with time left. For the country as a whole it's time to learn stiff arm salutes and how to say. "We Serve The Party." Why change a tried and true method.
Especially since totalitarianism is being voted in with the last gasp approval of the .....'electorate?'
Then it's your problem.. Starting with the bill for burying the remains....I haven't bothered. What for?
The third tier is gone, the second is being set up and that leaves Dump Trump and Party With Carly. It's a three way menage a trois of wrong, wrong, wrong and no right choices.
