Ben Carson: The Media Tricked Blacks Into Voting For Democrats
Ben Carson has now added media critic to his resume.
Speaking to conservative radio commentator Mike Gallagher on Gallagher’s podcast, Carson asserted that the media has “manipulated” African-Americans by using polarization to control how different groups think politically.
Carson told Gallagher:
American blacks over the course of this next year will begin to see that they’ve been manipulated, very, very largely. More and more, I’m finding, are thinking for themselves and are recognizing what really works for them and for their communities. I believe that is a dynamic that is in the process of changing….READ MORE at LiberalAmerica

i wanna punch him in his damn face.
Larry Schmitt September 30th, 2015 at 15:32
Must be all that free stuff they were promised. And we all know they can’t think for themselves. Proof once again that Carson thinks he’s white, and he hopes the GOP thinks so too.
whatthe46 September 30th, 2015 at 15:44
well, i’d like to hit him right across the damn face with a mega sized mirror.

The arrogance of this man, how insulting. I am not a brain surgeon but I am certain that the color of one’s skin has nothing to do with their ability to form an independent opinion. Fucker.

Ben Carson: The Media Tricked Blacks Into Voting For Democrats
Because they are too dumb to figure out who to vote for on their own.
Suzanne McFly September 30th, 2015 at 16:26
It is shocking how this black man can open his mouth and insult the entire African American community which he is a part of, and he does this without hesitation. Of course the democrats tricked the black people to vote for them because we all know how stupid this community is and they will do whatever they are told……/s. I wonder how President Obama, Michelle Obama, Neil deGrasse Tyson, Oprah, Nat Glover, Denzel Washington, Morgan Freeman,Whoopi Goldberg, Cuba Gooding Jr., Cicely Tyson….would feel about speaking to ben and showing him the light?

I was going to comment but you said what I was thinking, but better.

Yup walks thru the doors of the surgical room and the idiot takes over.
Leroy Goldberg September 30th, 2015 at 17:04
I LIKE HIM!
majii September 30th, 2015 at 17:33
I’m glad you do, but with every word that comes out of his mouth, he’s alienating more people—people who will refuse to vote for him.
tracey marie September 30th, 2015 at 17:34
Don’t feed the racist troll from latest.
majii September 30th, 2015 at 17:36
I’m just trying to inject a bit of reality into his world! Dude seems woefully uninformed.
whatthe46 September 30th, 2015 at 19:17
purposefully uninformed.
Leroy Goldberg September 30th, 2015 at 19:31
I just don’t see an educated black man that often.
arc99 September 30th, 2015 at 21:12
President Obama, Neil deGrasse Tyson, Eugene Robinson, etc. I see intelligent black men all the time.
What I do not see very often are intelligent white conservative men.
whatthe46 September 30th, 2015 at 21:27
you would if you stepped out of that park every once in a while and stop watching reich wing t.v.
tracey marie September 30th, 2015 at 19:52
It does not listen, the other that was banned is the same type of filth. Just ignore it, it wants attention.
Roctuna September 30th, 2015 at 19:07
Like in the 15 year old girl crush kind of way? Otherwise, why the ALL CAPS. No little hearts?
Leroy Goldberg September 30th, 2015 at 19:35
Sorry, just my excitement in seeing an intelligent and educated black man for a change.
Obewon September 30th, 2015 at 19:58
Your support for fiscal conservative BHO44 is duly noted. But “early retired” Birther Ben doesn’t even know Hawaii is among 57 U.S. states and territories, as well as the certified birthplace of POTUS Obama.
Roctuna September 30th, 2015 at 20:22
Educated? I suppose, in the medical field, but intelligent? Not by a longshot. Carson is a total blithering idiot and now we’re learning he drinks from the same fountain as Glen Beck? Get real.
whatthe46 September 30th, 2015 at 21:38
he’s stupid. he is being real.

“… my excitement in seeing an intelligent and educated black man for a change.”
Really?
Are you implying there aren’t many?
How about almost all of the white GOP presidential candidates might as well be considered uneducated because they are stupid… well, Carson is also stupid.
bpollen October 1st, 2015 at 06:14
Then just imagine your chagrin to learn that he is living proof that education and intelligence sometimes go their separate ways. And if YOU think he is both, you really really need to get out more. And finally get that G.E.D.
majii September 30th, 2015 at 17:32
STFU, Carson. I’ve always voted on the basis of whether a politician’s views were similar to mine, and I’m black. You need to stop playing the race card and realize that the reason most Black Americans, and many others, don’t vote for GOP/TPers is because their policies stink and are focused primarily on further enriching the rich and giving corporations control over our lives. I want nothing to do with a party whose politicians buy into the lie that, “Corporations are people.”

Don’t worry about punctuation as long as you’ve made your point.

I love that this “bro” doesn’t recognize how throughly used he is and how they’ll just toss his dumbass to the side like Mr. 666 Cain.
amersham46 September 30th, 2015 at 19:24
And the Republicans would like to prevent the Blacks ,the Latinos, the Asians and anybody else they do not trust from voting for anybody

“Early retired” Birther Ben is among just 5% of blacks voting incorrectly, versus the 95%! GOP TV coddles (R) Ben Carson, soothing him with the repeated racism he alone adores.

“I’m the great surgeon Carson I am smarter than other black folk because I didn’t get fooled by the evil liberal whitey like those other blacks.” I’m not black but if I were I would be really insulted…….hell I’m white and I still feel insulted.

Ok then….”FREE STUFF” isn’t a campaign slogan?
