I do not care much to meet a movie star on the streets of New York or shake hands with a rockstar at a concert. No offense or disrespect, just nothing about that inspires me. Dr. Ben Carson coming to town for a book signing, now that excites me!
My family and I just spent most of the whole day standing outside of a bookstore in order to shake the hand of Dr. Carson and for him to scribble his name across the inside cover of his new book. Total time in his presence: all of about seven seconds. I SAID THAT I GOT TO TOUCH THE HAND OF DR. BEN CARSON AND HE WROTE HIS NAME ON MY BOOK! It was amazing! My heart was about to beat out of my chest and every star struck nerve in my body was on overload. The man is my hero!
Please PLEASE please read his books! I have read his life story, Gifted Hands,One Nation, his amazing book about his personal beliefs about how our country should be governed from a Biblical worldview, and I am currently sucked into his newest book, A More Perfect Union.
In the last two books mentioned, he states a Bible verse at the beginning of each chapter. A More Perfect Union is a guide to understanding the Constitution of the United States of America, the duty of each and every American citizen.
I wholeheartedly believe that this leader was raised up by God and is meant to bring our nation back to “One Nation Under God” in which we flourish and are an aide to neighboring countries, a country that we want to leave to our children, a country where we are not entitled to riches but we have the freedom and motivation to work until we see our dreams come true.
Agree with me, disagree with me, but read his words and be inspired from a little boy that was abandoned by his father, grew up in a situation that should have been labeled as another statistic in jail or dead at an early age, see how he lived the true American dream and became a leading pediatric neurosurgeon, author, and presidential candidate.
Not only will I vote for Dr. Ben Carson because I believe he is the better option running, I will vote for Dr. Ben Carson because I believe he has the knowledge and wisdom to save our country from the brink of destruction and return us to prosperity.

I so agree with you, Caroline and I will be casting my vote for him as well. I will be voting for him for the same reasons you have pointed too here in your post.
I grew up in the 50’s; a time when America was great and still believe in her greatness today. Have we ventured from the righteousness of god. Certainly we have and I believe that a spirit filled man in the Whitehouse can, and will, make a vast difference going forward.
I urge every Christian worthy of their salt to consider voting for Dr. Ben Carson. We need every Christian acting as a united front to vote for America and not just for political rhetoric. We need every Christian vote, united together to once again bring this Nation back to “One Nation under God.”
May the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob bless and keep America and those who love our nation.

AMEN! And I agree with you that this is a godly candidate that needs the backing and support of all Christians from this nation. It is a time for us to gather and agree to put our differences aside and solve problems! Grace and peace to you!

While I’m not a fan of Carson’s particularly after his last few comments, this a thoughtful well-written post. 😊

thank you for putting differences aside and for your kind comments.
…i have to say that i believe you are just the type of person that would fall in love with carson. he strongly urges us to unite, despite our differences…you would love “Gifted Hands” if you have not read it already.
THANK YOU again!

Unfortunately I find myself disagreeing with too many of his views, (immigrants, Muslims, abortion, and guns). That said, I do think he’s one of the only Republican candidates who doesn’t have some hidden agenda.

“‘We the people’ of America are actually at the pinnacle of power. We need not feel like victims or that things are out of our hands. America can become a land characterized by despotism only if the people relinquish their power as voters.”
I do believe this nation is a reflection of its people. We must educate ourselves and hold our government accountable to uphold the Constitution.
Agreeing with you, I do not believe Trump is the best option for that position.

I remember Sarah Palin saying that if Obama became president, that’s the end of America. Now, he’s served two terms and “fundamentally transformed” America into something increasingly unrecognizable.

I agree that he has changed America more than any other president. Unfortunately, our national debt is out of control, ISIS is stronger than ever and he refuses to deal with it, there is corruption at ever turn…the list goes on and on for so ever long. I do, however, believe that Ben Carson and he Biblical application of the law is a great hope for America if we see the wonderful day that he gets elected!

If we’re looking for a President our children can again admire and understand the value of integrity, we would all vote for Carson. Values, integrity, honesty and faith. We need a President who is a servant leader, not a celebrity sjwoing up on Jimmy Kimmel or SNL or having dinner with the Karadashians…not an egomaniac or a liar.
