Posted by salaamallah@hotmail.com on Sun Sep 28 21:01:34 2014 Top Republican Presidential Candidate Says Anarchy May Force Cancellation Of 2016 ElectionDr. Ben Carson, a popular Tea Party activist and Fox News contributor who says he will likely seek the Republican nomination for president in 2016, said on Sunday that he is seriously concerned that there will not be 2016 elections in the United States because the country could be in anarchy by that point. His reasons: the growing national debt, ISIS, and the U.S. Senate’s refusal to consider legislation passed by the GOP-controlled House of Representatives. Host Chris Wallace noted that in light of his potential presidential campaign, Carson’s previous comments were now under a greater spotlight. He noted Carson’s August comment that if the Republicans don’t win a majority in the Senate this year, the 2016 elections might not even be held and asked the retired neurosurgeon if he stood by it: WALLACE: You said recently that there might not even be elections in 2016 because of widespread anarchy. Do you really believe that? CARSON: I hope that that’s not going to be the case. But certainly there’s the potential because you have to recognize that we have a rapidly increasing national debt, a very unstable financial foundation, and you have all these things going on like the ISIS crisis that could very rapidly change things that are going on in our nation. And unless we begin to deal with these things in a comprehensive way and in a logical way there is no telling what could happen in just a couple of years. Carson then noted that Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-NV) has “over three hundred bills sitting on his desk” that he won’t bring to the floor for a vote, “thereby thwarting the will of the people.” He made no mention of the Republican House’s refusal to consider popular Senate-passed bipartisan measures like comprehensive immigration reform and the Employment Non-Discrimination Act. Carson finished a close second Saturday in a straw poll at the 2014 Values Voters Summit for 2016 presidential preferences. Despite Carson’s fears, the United States has held presidential elections every four years since 1788, despite a civil war, two world wars, and a great depression. Carson has been no stranger to controversial comments since he became active in politics. In March of 2013, he compared same-sex marriage to bestiality and NAMBLA. That October, he decried the Affordable Care Act as “the worst thing that has happened in this nation since slavery,” adding that the law “is slavery, in a way.” And earlier this month, Carson defended former Baltimore Raven Ray Rice, saying people should stop “demonizing” him and suggesting that his wife also shared some of the blame for being attacked, opining that “they both need some help.” |

Heh. The smoking crater of the GOP just keeps getting more and more insane as time rolls on! I think I see what the problem is now. Since Obamacare covers mental illness now, they're out there trying to avoid the white coats and the nets. :) |

Look at him lately ... why would he WANT to remain in office once he's done with all this craziness? Anyone who thinks he hasn't already given up is as out of it as Carson. Nah ... at this point after all that shit, Obama is just counting down the days to his retirement. |
