Dr. Ben Carson preparing to announce his candidacy for POTUS

I don't offend easily. However, I am offended by people who refuse to side with proof-less faith rather than acknowledge facts. I'm offended by religion. I'm offended by people who embrace ignorance. I'm offended by people who are selfish and refuse to admit that not everyone is capable of being a scholar or a CEO.

So I guess I am easily offended...by most Republican'ts.

I, for one, hope the porn that's produced this cycle is a bit more relevant. I fear that without a Palin to get us all thinking about titty fucking the candidate that this will be another boring parade of issues and dudes in suits.

I'll stand by my assessment of your intelligence based on your posts.

I think there can be a perfectly wonderful, valuable, and intelligent human who I disagree with. I'm crazy like that.

Oh he of superior intellect who casts his pity and amusement down upon lil ole me for my stupidity.... I would think that someone chastising another on their limited mental means should be on their A game with their shit. So I will rebut and call you on your horrendous sentence structure for my amusement, being a simpleton and all... You wrote: "I think there can be a perfectly wonderful, valuable, and intelligent human who I disagree with." But I do believe the CORRECT sentence structure there is "I think THAT there can be a perfectly wonderful, valuable, and intelligent human with whom I disagree."

I could be wrong being as dumb as I am and all.

I have a question for the masses (I'm on the fence on this one). If you or a loved one needed brain surgery and Dr. Carson was available, would you say No thanks or would you say Definitely? If you trust this man with what is probably this most important thing the world to you, why not a vote for President? The Presidency is OTJT. So unless you were V.P or served 1 term and was voted back in, there is no job experience.

No one is dumb here...just have diff opinions that all...This might sound cliché and all but if we all had the same opinions the world would be a boring place to live

Excellent point. My city is a melting pot and I have many interesting conversations with people I can't make heads nor tails of. Give it some time and things tend to clear up. I have a good time flying a drone around the neighborhood with my Iranian buddy. Allahu Akbar!.. or at least alright.

Holy shit! Mariah is a radical. It would be fucking awesome to see a conservative win in 2016 just to watch her meltdown and vapor lock.

Don't get your hopes up...it's still to early to tell

I'd say definitely because that's his profession.

But all we've heard from conservatives for 7 years is that Obama was too inexperienced to be president, that he'd never had a real job (false) and had never been anything more than a community organizer (false). In fact Obama had a great deal of experience with the many facets of state and national governance.
Carson hasn't had any.
It'll be interesting to see how conservatives try to spin this. Seems an impossibility without looking like complete hypocrites.
