You know how the left says we as w****s are r****t. We don't like Obama Because he is Black Actually just half black. Read the following.

A grassroots campaign to draft Dr. Ben Carson for the 2016 GOP p**********l nomination has been enormously successful, with supporters kicking in some $7 million in donations, its founder tells Newsmax TV.

"It's astonishing,'' John Philip Sousa IV, co-founder and chairman of the National Draft Ben Carson for President Committee, said on Newsmax's "The Steve Malzberg Show.''

"To think that we've been doing this for less than a year, that we raised over $7 million, that we are within 12 hours of getting our 100,000th individual donor, and we have 17,000 volunteers. It's unprecedented.''

Carson, a retired neurosurgeon turned political columnist, indicated to Steve Malzberg this week he is "a step closer'' to throwing his hat in the ring — and Souza believes he is a highly viable candidate.

"We're in real, real trouble and who can fix it? We believe very strongly that Dr. Carson is either the only person or one of the very few people who can really turn America around and make us the country of exceptionalism again, which we are no longer,'' Souza said.

"I mean it's sad to say, I h**e to say it, but that's where we are.''

Souza added that Carson's acclaimed work as a pediatric neurosurgeon — he first to successfully separate conjoined twins joined at the head — is also a plus.

"Think about the process one would go through to figure out how to separate conjoined twins so that both halves live,'' he said.

"The arteries, the nerves, the brains, everything that's involved with that and Dr. Carson did that.

"If he can do that, he can fix our immigration problem, he can fix the economy. He's a smart guy, he uses commonsense, he relies on the Constitution and that's what we need today.''

But Sousa, who is the great-grandson of famed "Stars and Stripes Forever'' composer John Philip Sousa, also acknowledged that Carson will also face severe and unwarranted criticism from the media for his conservative ideology.

"He's going to be the 'Uncle Tom,' he's going to be the t*****r, he's going to be called all kinds of names that have absolutely no bearing whatsoever on who and what this gentleman is,'' Souza said.

"That's the media. If you're a conservative, you come to expect it and you build it into your plan and it's sadly part of everyday life.''

What does Sousa think are the chances of Carson — who was awarded the P**********l Medal of Freedom by President George W. Bush in 2008 — taking the political plunge?

"When we started this there was a little tiny flame like on a birthday candle and now it's a raging bonfire,'' Sousa said.

"If I were a gambling man, and you said is Carson going to run, I wouldn't bet the whole farm, but I'd sure bet the barn at this point.''

Interest in Carson has dramatically increased in recent months.

He was the top v**e-getter in a 2016 p**********l straw poll at the recent Western Conservative Summit in Denver.

Carson took 22 percent of the v**es cast by 666 of the conference’s 3,300 attendees. He was followed by Texas Sen. Ted Cruz with 13 percent and former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin with 12 percent.

Others in the top 10 were Louisiana Gov. Bobby Jindal, former Sen. Rick Santorum, Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker, Kentucky Sen. Rand Paul, former New York Lt. Gov. Betsy McCaughey, former Florida Rep. Allen West and Wisconsin Sen. Paul Ryan.

Urgent: Should Obamacare Be Repealed? V**e Here Now!

oldroy Loc: Western Kansas (No longer in hiding)

Obamacare must be repealed, as soon as possible, and Ben Carson has said that over and over. I wonder how much trouble the media and the establishment Republicans will have trying to discount Carson in the next two years. I am sure that many people will be surprised to see him running, maybe as an independent since the establishment doesn't want him, but I think he is ready to go and all the whining from the left and the media won't bother him at all. People have go remember that he got his real start in politics at a breakfast speech with Obama sitting right there. The man has real guts and all the other things we need to recover from Obama and the left.

Ben Carson is a very good man.

semper-fi Loc: Corrupticut

Yes he is. I've followed him ever since his speech at the prayer breakfast and he's never changed his message. It appears he is standing his ground.

oldroy Loc: Western Kansas (No longer in hiding)

He would have to stand his ground since establishment GOP people would come after him just as they did Herman Cain. The Demonrats wouldn't have to work any harder than they did. Many people don't remember that Cain was torn down during a primary campaign where Dems didn't really get to take part other than shoveling information to the establishment people like Rove, McConnell, Boehner and the other RINOs running the party.

jimahrens Loc: California

Yes with Obama 5 ft. away biting his lip. I really like this guy I will v**e for him in a flash. I kind of wonder who he will choose for a running mate.

oldroy Loc: Western Kansas (No longer in hiding)

Almost anybody would be better than Joe Biden. I say this because I think the Dems would really fear the removal of Obama because they would end up with Biden in his place.

jimahrens Loc: California

All I know is we have to take our Country back.

I'm glad I'm not a conservative, religious-right, someone who dwells on the End Times. The number of v**es cast for Carson, 666, would give me serious pause before v****g for him for anything. I might think that the number of v**es he received were a sign of Biblical prophesy toward the 2nd Coming. Like I said, I'm glad I'm not a conservative, religious-right, someone who dwells on the End Times. :lol:

Forkbassman Loc: Missouri

You bet he's a good man!! I've been mentioning him on this forum for awhile. Huckabee is my first choice as running mate and Jindal second. I can tell you for a fact that Carson and Huckabee are the real deal! Not a phony bone in their body; very principled, smart, humble and yet tough enough to take the heat from the Dems and, trust me, they will hit them with everything they got. Power is all they're interested in and will stop at nothing to stay in power. Look at what they did to a good man Cain. If you have any doubts about Carson, read his books and/ or watch his life story "Gifted a Hands". He can truly turn America around possibly in one term.

jimahrens Loc: California

I wont waste my time telling you your barking up the wrong tree. Give me legitimate data maybe then it will be worth looking at.

oldroy Loc: Western Kansas (No longer in hiding)

I have to sympathize with anyone who noticed that number in the post. There must be some chance that you do dwell on that End of Times since you saw that so quickly.

semper-fi Loc: Corrupticut

Did you watch obummers face, how it changed from jovial at the beginning to dour towards the middle and passed at the end.
Carson got audited shortly after that speech and they couldn't touch him. He was also chastised for having the audacity to pray and invoke the name of Jesus... at a prayer breakfast?

oldroy Loc: Western Kansas (No longer in hiding)

All those things were, indeed, reported in the media I read and watch. I don't think many Dems realize those things went on, though.

jimahrens Loc: California

Yes I watched every minute loved watching Obama squirm.
