No thanks.
But when asked whether people should be allowed to own “semi-automatic weapons,” the doctor replied: “It depends on where you live.”
“I think if you live in the midst of a lot of people, and I’m afraid that that semi-automatic weapon is going to fall into the hands of a crazy person, I would rather you not have it,” Carson elaborated. However, if you live “out in the country somewhere by yourself” and want to own a semi-automatic weapon, he added, “I’ve no problem with that.” |

It became obvious to me that he knew little or nothing about guns. I thought it was worth the effort to contact his campaign, offer to talk to him, take him shooting (he and I live rather close to each other), or anything else. I essentially got blown off.
Thus, I'm taking his stated position as his real position, so I will not vote for him. |

I couldn't vote for him even if he gets the nomination. Besides for being antigun, and subsequently having to spin his position after political pressure, he has no idea about personal freedom. His stance on a federal mandate for vaccinations flies against the premise of healthcare choice and freedom, which reminds me of Obamacare. Also, he believes that Alan Greenspan was the best chairman of the Federal Reserve in modern times, who was asleep during the housing bubble, yet that is of no issue to Dr. Carson. Dr. Carson should take a remedial class on economics and the Fed, in addition to the constitution.

In addition to his "I was anti-gun before I was pro-gun" nonsense, there's this gem:
"Is it moral for us, for example, to take advantage of cheap labor from illegal immigrants while denying them citizenship? I'm sure you can tell from the way I phrased the question that I believe we have taken the moral low road on this issue. Some segments of our economy would virtually collapse without these undocumented workers--we all know that--yet we continue to harass and deport many individuals who are simply seeking a better life for themselves and their families. Is there a way to apply logic to this issue and arrive at an intelligent solution?" Then there's this regarding the Ferguson incident: "He specified "for instance, in a lot of places, police officers aren’t even allowed to go into the more dangerous areas by themselves. They’re always paired. Or you know, people use tasers, people learn how to shoot people in the legs to stop them from charging, things of that nature. And I seriously doubt that he’d been given that information." He's full of both herp and derp. No vote from me. |

Most children get vaccines, due to registering for class or on behalf of their parents desire. The free market is a player to make sure people get vaccinated; for example, some doctors are only taking children who are previously vaccinated. It is a matter of the "collective good," like Hillary Clinton frequently says, or individual rights. Any politician that is willing to usurp individual rights for the "collective good" does not believe in the true meaning of the restraint of government, the Constitution, and the Bill of Rights. |

Ben Carson said he changed his mind and was against gun registration because "sinister internal forces" could surface in that scenario. He "used to think they needed to be registered, but if you register them they just come and find you and take your guns." He said, "I would never advocate anything to interfere with Second Amendment rights; however, I do think we have to be intelligent" and address situations where people with AK-47s are mowing people down. "We need to discuss, 'Is there something we can do?' We have to keep in mind that law-abiding American citizens absolutely should have gun rights."
But when asked whether people should be allowed to own "semi-automatic weapons," the doctor replied: "It depends on where you live. I think if you live in the midst of a lot of people, and I'm afraid that that semi-automatic weapon is going to fall into the hands of a crazy person, I would rather you not have it," Carson elaborated. However, if you live "out in the country somewhere by yourself" and want to own a semi-automatic weapon, he added, "I've no problem with that."

Might be a while, but if a good right wing black guy tried in the future, I don't think he'd be automatically DQed under the Obungo Rule.

I find it cute how many of you still think your vote matters or that they'll give you a candidate worth voting for. Even though the dichotomy stares us right in the face, we don't want to acknowledge it because it hurts to think about America being that way. I do enjoy the banter of trying to justify why Republicans keep voting for expanding powers for the POTUS & all the bullshit " If you don't vote for so and so, your voting for the Dems". If only we put our efforts into something that actually helps our cause.

I want to like him, i really do. But his "original" position on guns is still a concern. he has not, in my view, corrected that. his view on immigration I am concerned with also. I am sure there are some other things, but those 2 or on the top of my list. now if it is him vs hillary, then yes he gets my vote. I will vote the lesser of 2 evils in that case.
Of course it is a moot point. if he happens to start getting close to being a threat, there will be numerous white women coming out of the wood work claiming he raped them.
