Ben Carson on the US presidential race

I heard about his interview from joining in the race but I am a little disappointed by lack of force on the questions asked of him.

I wish I would have him answer questions as to what are the most pressing problems in America today and while on it, the world too.

But no, the questions asked were so irrelevant with the future of America when it comes to peace and progress..

Anyways maybe there are people out there who heard about him.

I do admire the guy, considering his simplicity and non affiliation with greed and manipulation in politics, he might just be our best bet to tackle the job.

What do you think?

Hello LJ

Hows you keeping ?

I don't know much about Ben Carson. But what I do know is that all these interviews are questions picked by the interviewees before hand.
Which to me is a bit stupid, makes these interviews irrelevant and pointless. dunno
I can't see the Donald as the vessel to fix us and thank you for joining in.
Exactly non. They are too careful on tailoring the questions in order to make it bland and non responsive to what is needed.
Simple: If I had been there, I would ask in all simplicity questions like:

What do we need at the moment, as a nation and as a world leader. What are our problems if there are any and how do we go on solving them.

Now comes the most foundation that defines him. To make a list as to what we are strong of, what are our weakness.
Based on these take, then we maneuver a simple but achievable move to correct it.

Now we can define who he is. So far I can paste the subjects that he chose to participate in and none whatsoever declare the serious matters that afflict America today.
If Donald Trump is elected and gets divorced during term,
will his wife get half the white house.

She will by law have to be kept in the manor she has become accustom to.

laugh sigh
lol non,.,,perhaps our politics is so glamorized and humanized by how do I look terms?
I don't pay too awfully to the political arena like I used to cause all ones hears is a lot of fluffy talk.
Cc, I'm sure so many are feeling like you and think like you. But check him out, he seems a very simple and nice.
lindsy they all seem to start out nice and then they lower the boom boom.
CC a most typical playground of the rich and infamous. They all become drunk with what power serves them instead of serving humbly for the people.

I believe somewhere is a disconnection of what is good and bad..

No one that I can think of as a leader of the world to be good. Louis the 14, and to the rest of the history, nothing but sunk into the wilderness of greed and lies..
How true that is Non, so maybe we just have to accept that anybody who attempts to lead is going to become one that is sold to power and corruption. There is no room for honesty, plain good old non attached individual Non?

So it is a choice among the corrupt and the greedy?

Humanity is dead Non.
revolution will always overcome the problems in the power game.
and for a short time things will be good.

Yes unfortunately it seems conflict is as natural as opinion.
but it is opinion and choice that makes individuals, just as individuals make up societies and societies make our Planet.
Perception is what makes it a happy or sad existence for us. wine
Non we both know a price humanity pats gorgeous revolt can sometimes just as devastating as annihilation of humanity, but I believe it is how man will always be. Heaven and hell is a state of mind.
At least how I read your last sentence, our perceptions define what things are and who we are then the excuse for the evil deeds are a matter of who us hurt and who benefits.

A most insane margin of knowing what is right and or wrong.

Scary non...
Wow I'm typing on my cell and the words just become twisted. Should have been the price that humanity pays in a revolution is just as damaging as man's annihilation.

Well we just have to accept the consequences of our choices so to speak. .
Why not just vote for Bruce Jenner. That choice makes as much sense as the others we are faced with.
Hi Phyllis its nice to see your still here, where is your residence now? I have a question, if your ran for a political office would your agenda be. lol Joe
You might be right Ken.
Joe, it's a very simple list. I will gather all the representatives with the rest of the leaders in communities and discuss the problems
You have a point there Obs, a self promoting salesmen than a non politician. Having established Trump as nothing but an arrogant greedy man to enter into politics would be similar to a a self decapitating suicidal maniac to run the white house. I would prefer to go with the innocent but very ethical man that will learn the mechanics of politics while committed to a simple servitude.
Considering that Hillary will win then I want Trump to be the leading Republican. I like the essence in much of what Trump says and someone does need to say it, but I don't like what he does, and leader of the opposition is a position where only what a person says matters and what a person does doesn't matter - i.e. perfect position for Trump.
Tyranny by accident vs tyranny by design. Either way Obs, it is destructive politics in the making, if it is not quite laid off already.

Anyways, I believe there is a third alternative and that is the take over of those that are young and with a robotic mind. Some kind of non left and non right. Just in the margin of both. Perhaps they are already seeping through the veins of underground movement and then boom...they are in power. Who knows. If I were younger, this is exactly what I would design to do. The kinds of young blood, wealthy and humble.
whats to fix ? what do you want to see change in the USA ?
Transparency and lack of lies and deception..Stay focus with the promise that he stood for. Unemployment, which is one of the worst in history is in his terms. The amount of lies and deception on the insurance alone is so crippling to the people who used to have a good insurance. His policy on the immigration is abhorrent. His disrespect on the constitution.

Just google the words of his pundits and you will get a good picture of my concerns. He received the lowest rating ever for a president according to the Rasmussen report.
The unemployment crisis was inevitable before Obama ever took office. Quite simply we could not financially afford to go to a pointless war with, then rebuild and prop up Iraq. I knew that then, but no one wanted to hear it. The money diverted and spent in pursuit of that war came from other programs and President Bush's decision to spend the money on war and and foreign economies very much helped set the stage for the 2007/2008 financial collapse. Way back in 07 I forecast it didn't matter whether the winner was Republican or Democrat, either way the economic ripples of what we chose to do in 2002 would be devastating by 2012. Sadly I was correct. Doubly sadly our downward economic spiral has not yet bottomed out IMO.

Name one current candidate that has proposed a serious, detailed plan for returning the US to heavy industry production or regaining the frittered away leadership of international commerce.

May as well write in Kim Kardashian for President for all the good the other candidates offer in terms of jobs and continued economic growth.
That's how it all began Ken. Now we move in, and take it from where we are.
For me bring back all the outsourced jobs and assure common productivity for all the people. Contain the borders and don't make us a consumer of all China's products.

We can get out of this mess. It's not going to be easy, just move on and take measures that are achievable.
Should have been move on. Pick up the pieces. I used to favor Hillary but her lies on the latest Benghazi report is just too humiliating. I withdrew my support. To make it worst, her continued concurrence to his immigration is so much in violation of the law and the constitution. Why not just open the border then. But to condone criminals coming as illegal, in violation of our laws. Isn't that a sign of weakness?
I get that your sentiments are triggered and or generated from the misinformation dispensed to the public by the corrupted news and press releases regarding the crisis in our world today.

I firmly agree with that. How can we know how sick we are if the diagnosis that the doctor give is is based on lie and deception.

Which of course the primary reason why, if I were to change the direction of our country is to change exactly that.

Then those that simply are comfortable to be led like stupid sheep in a herd better wake up and participate in running the government by voicing out their sentiments.

Exactly my point is to create awareness as to how we can do something for the changes we do need.

Simplify or governing rules. No mumbo jumbo like sure, distraction on what truly the concern of the country. Do something on productivity, firm and strict rules on criminals, protect the borders and we do have a chance to recover what we lost..
GUIDING PRINCIPLE OF THIS NATION: IN GOD WE TRUST
Bill Federer remembers faith of John F. Kennedy

Stringman, it is not a guiding principle. It is just a motto some clever Christian Congressmen had enough votes together to force it to be put on some coins back in the 1800s. Later when the Congressional membership shifted the other way, it was removed, then it shifted back to Christian domination and it came back on the coins. Back and forth it goes. Just a stamp on some coins, hardly a guiding principle. If you wish to learn guiding principles, read The Federalist Papers. Let us know what page you find we should trust God on.
