Carson used government programs all the way to and through college. The person who wrote that lie doesn't mention that Carson grew up in public schools, got public housing and food stamps, got free glasses from a government program, was helped by Affirmative Action, and got Pell Grants for college.<br /><br />That government assistance go Carson his start in life and now he wants to take those same programs away from other underprivileged kids. Kids who may have talent, like he did. He's a selfish, narrow-minded, misguided Gooper. Just the the person who wrote that quote.

A doctor is not the same thing as a scientist, of course, but the principle is the same.Infidel753https://www.blogger.com/profile/10965786814334886696noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1883838569462983439.post-14412806997394031582015-10-19T21:02:17.623-04:002015-10-19T21:02:17.623-04:00the Teapublicans are atteacted to Carson because h...the Teapublicans are atteacted to Carson because he's a TeaPublican black guy who talks like them. he was a brain surgeon who has made an ass of himself in politics. they're always attravcted to asses: Sarah Palin, Donald Trump, Ben Carson.
