I like him because he's a Christian who has real world experience. I'm not interested in career politicians.

He wouldn't stand a chance in that party.

But I thought black people always vote for black people?

No one ever said that......EVER

But blacks do always vote for Democrats, no matter their views, race, religion, background, etc.

So this guy and Mr. 999 both voted Democrat? I don't think so.

But he won't even get the nomination. Conservatives won't vote for a black guy.

Signed,

All these black Republicans

Senator Blanche Bruce - (MS)
Senator Edward Brooke - (MA)
Congressman Gary Franks - (CT)
Congressman J.C. Watts - (OK)
Congressman Tim Scott - (SC)
Congressman Allen West - (FL)
Congressman Will Hurd - (TX)
Congresswoman Mia Love -(UT)

There were also a good number in the 30's - 60's that were Democrats that, as you know, was the conservative party in those days. But I know you only count the party and not the actual political leaning.

My point is simple - YOU ARE WRONG.

As usual.

So are you saying Carson will get the nomination?

I certainly think he could.

I see you have been drinking heavily.

IN order for Carson to get the nomination, he needs to shave the stash and goat.

Had Obammy not been clean shaven, he wouldn't have been President.

Not ready for primetime.

That's true.

Them not being enamored for ol' Ben is probably more having do with him not believing in giving out handouts to people that are undeserving.

No free phones for one.

That's a very condescending and largely untrue statement. You ignore the motivations of different classes, different environments, and different ideologies.

I don't think you're interested in the deeper answer to Fit's question because you're satisfied with your folk knowledge.
