  • I wouldn't vote for Carson and I didn't vote for Obama. Carson seems meek and that won't jive well with how things are going globally. Logic

    I think Dr. Carson is a man of great principle, and strength.

    You don't have to be a loudmouth jackass to lead our country.

    Obamao for example....

    Being a loudmouth =\= controlling a room. How you carry yourself and your command over a room are definitely part of being a leader.

  • Which of the presidential candidates strikes you as an economic genius? I shudder to think what the economy would look like under Bernard sanders

    Bernie Sanders believes there is a money wizard that just wishes money into being to pay for programs.

    I lean conservative for economic principles. That being said I think pretty much everybody in the field understands more about the economy than Carson.

    I think Carson's a nice guy and deserves a spot in Washington, I just don't know if that's as president.

    There's no wizard, he just wants to up tax rates up to 70-90%

    He must also believe that planes don't exist.

  • well, Kasich is the guy who really knows the budget.

    But I like and trust Carson to be the president.We must have a

    new president that will bring our country together,

    not keep causing strife and division, fighting American windmills as though

    they were enemy dragons.

    I don't think any president at this point will bring the country together. Sides are pretty well set in most debates. The last time we really came together was right after 9/11. We pull together after tragedy but that wears off pretty quick.

    The president's job is to make executive decisions based on the best info he has nothing more nothing less. I trust economists will do most of the economic maneuvering

    And the president that will bring the country together is the one that believes in everything you believe in... Correct?

  • well, woodypeckhead, your Obamao believes in NOTHING I believe in...

    and he has just divided our country terribly. And, he called Bush's debt

    "UNPATRIOTIC".

    So, he goes and raises it to about 20 TRILLION before he leaves office.

    and you libs don't say a word about our debt anymore.

    weird.

    So, on the flip side, it's time for a pres to do the opposite of what your dirtbag asswipe Obamao has been doing.

  • "your Obama"?

    As long as people like you exist, on both sides, no president is bringing us together

  • ^^You forgot the "Mao"

  • I think Carson understands perfectly fine. Yes raising the ceiling allows us to fund existing commitments, but what he's saying is go back and adjust the commitments. Something that everyone of us routinely does.

  • right. ObaMao wants to adjust the committments, from what he doesn't care about...

    to more money for planned baby murderhood, entitlements to the hard core dem voting welfare base...

    and more money to fund lawsuits against white people that blacks want to get money from.

    We were already waist deep in serious debt, when they passed Obamaowantswhitepeopletodie ....

    that was a "committment" that should also have never been created.
