Vetting a candidate by fact-checking his claims is going after him? Carson's belief that he is speaking truthfully and with coherence needs to be destroyed. Evolution is being promoted by "forces of evil"? Really? Geocentrism is so Third Century BC.

He is falling apart. Can't handle the pressure of a campaign.

Because he has no actual qualifications for the job, his whole campaign is about his personality, life, and accomplishments. How is verifying those things any different from examining a politician's voting record?

Ben Carson is a weird guy. It's almost like he's been living in a bubble for the past 30 years with his diatribe about how he's under sooooooo much scrutiny unlike anyone in history running for president before.
Really?
Really Ben?

Seriously?

The Democrats have a woman in her late sixties who is the likely nominee and who is distrusted by over 60% of the electorate, a 75 year old senator whose claim to fame is that he is an avowed socialist who does not even belong to the party and a governor whose track record in Maryland is nothing to brag about ............. all are white in a party that prides itself on diversity!

Is this really a slate of candidates to brag about?

Yes, yes it is. People who have read and understand the Constitution are generally good candidates, as are those who can master nuances and complex issues such as the federal budget, health care, climate change and international trade. Can you explain why Kasich is doing so poorly other than the low information and anti-intellectual GOP base?

Says an Obama voter. Give me a break!

Carson is on now record stating that there is nothing he could do to control Mannatech, a company selling the equivalent of snake oil, from using his image on their website or posting promotional videos in which he appears. He also claims that he wasn't aware they were using his image, he doesn't do "official endorsements," and doesn't do any due diligence when he "gets a contract to do a speech." Instead, he merely goes off and gives the speech. Really?

He also appears to be oblivious to the fact that his "business manager" has asserted there was no "contract" with Mannatech. And yet they still paid him $42,000 for one speech and made donations in undisclosed amounts to his Foundation in connection with three others.

Reminds me of the old SNL skit in which Dukakis quips about Bush: "How am I losing to this guy?"

So as Ben recalls it he basically gave some speeches and afterward hearing that Mannatech was using his image and putting clips from his speeches in promotional videos was all news to him since he just just took the money and ran and never looked back. Yikes - that doesn't make the situation sound any better.

Dr. Doofus needs to have his brain activity monitored. He's not firing on all cylinders.

You all don't get the point. Dr. Carson is evil and divisive for the African American community because he did not spend his whole life in low income housing on welfare and medicaid and food stamps without an education. Get it? That makes him a racist, uber conservative right wing tea party jerk. He's the worst liar ever - worse than Bill and Hillary.

And you're a fool suffering from delusions of illusory superiority as well.

Hi, dialing in from Baltimore here. The black people I know can't stand him because they think he's a jackass.

I concur.
