This is only the second time I've ever heard this guy speak. (The first was when he was defending vaccines during the previous presidential debate.) Ben Carson sounds like a literal half-wit.
When asked if he would "deport illegals," Ben Carson replied: "Uh, if they have uh, if they qualify as illegals. There's - I would give people the ability to register in a certain period of time, uh. And if they have pristine records and they're willing to work as guest workers under the circumstances that we provide. Uh, they could stay. Uh, but they don't become citizens and they don't vote.
He also said he would not only not end, but would 'intensify' the 'war on drugs.'
Continuing the criminal WOD shows a truly weak thinker.
The most dangerous man to any government is the man who is able to think things out... without regard to the prevailing superstitions and taboos. Almost inevitably he comes to the conclusion that the government he lives under is dishonest, insane, intolerable. ~ H. L. Mencken
Carson is the '15 version of Alan Keyes. Keyes was a house boy for Bill Kristol (his Harvard roommate) and stalking horse for the Establishment. He crippled Buchanan in the early primary voting in 1996. I've been looking around for a similar Establishment connection to Carson, and haven't found one yet.
We may be too Libertarian to ever have anyone we like elected.
Hell, Thomas Jefferson wouldn't have a chance these days.

Of course he would continue the war on drugs. Drugs can't fight back. How courageous of him.
John Howard says: There are 4 schools of economics: Marxism: steal everything Keynesianism: steal by counterfeiting whenever needed Chicago school (Milton Friedman): steal by counterfeiting at a steady, predictable rate Austrians: don't steal
"In response to my recent post showing Ben Carson saying "Illegal Aliens Could Stay," a reader writes: "Carson is the 2015 version of Alan Keyes. Keyes was a house boy for Bill Kristol (his Harvard roommate) and stalking horse for the Establishment. He crippled Pat Buchanan in the early primary voting in 1996." Let's compare these two situations, twenty years after Buchanan vs. Keyes, where another alleged 'black conservative GOP candidate' Ben Carson challenges a pro-American populist, Donald Trump, in the GOP Presidential primary."
