SPC Andrew Griffin - I just can't believe any of these candidates have made it this far. I mean is this the best leadership the United States of America has to offer? And therefore the world? Stop spinning I want off this crazy ride

I find it odd that the far left likes to shout out that we are "living in a racists society, yet the overwhelming supporters of Dr. Carson are "white".
I pray to see the day when all men and women will be judged by the content of their character not by the color of their skin.
Being a Viet Nam Veteran, I think back when I had to defend my outpost (Camp Holloway, Central Highlands), no one cared what the skin color of the soldier on their right or left flank was, only that he held his position and stayed in the fight.
I recall many a time when I helped wounded soldiers onto the choppers that awaited them and seeing the blood seeping through their bandages, white or black, the color was RED.

Not sure but j am tired of these groomed since birth politicians all mainly withdraw form of law backgrounds. I think they are better than the alternative.

It would be a disaster. Two neophytes trying to work against a Congress that would stonewall them.

Depends if "Trump" will be... of by and for the American people or...of by and for Donald Trump. As for Dr. Carson, he has achieved "greatness" in his own right and has great "humility" and also he is not afraid to profess his faith in God... Two traits that are definitely in my plus category as I decide whom my vote will go to in 2016.

The silent majority will ultimately make the difference in who is elected. If Trump is the republican candidate, it might be a gamble. Regardless, I just can't believe anyone would vote for Clinton after everything she's done, but that’s moot. The Democratic Party has manipulated many of its supporters for the last 60 or so years. Free everything, you don’t have to lift a finger. The poor get free money, free healthcare, food stamps, cellphones, housing and so on. The Democratic Party turned what was meant to be temporary programs into a perpetual way of life. Generations of people have lived this way with no incentives to change. Now they also have the support of all the illegal aliens they have imported who will also get free everything. They will do anything to win, as demonstrated by their actions (ACORN, busing in voters, registering dead people, etc.). Personally, I don’t think this country could survive a Clinton presidency. And there's no talking to liberals or so called "progressives" about any of this – when you present them with facts, they usually end up screaming, crying and name calling. At least, that’s been my experience. I have friends who fall into this category so we simply don’t ever discuss politics.

Chief, well stated indeed and let's not forget our Military, it seems like every time a Democrat occupies the WH, it's cut our Military in every way possible. Probably the only exception was Kennedy and by all standards, today he would be considered a "moderate republican".

The answers I'm reading actually sort of scare me. Most people are saying electing Donald Trump would be a terrible mistake and I completely agree. But Carson? The man is a fool. Fiorina? Fool. Rubio? Not quite a fool but not a man that should be president.
I really can't stand behind a single republican candidate. They appear to be playing a game of conservative "Watch this, hold my beer" and spouting off ideals that are 100% racist, hateful and right-wing lunacy; and have no hope for redemption. Their hate for our current (And great) president has given them one goal: dismantle all the progress that has been made since Obama took office. This is to include insuring Americans that could not provide for themselves and regressing to a point where we still deny people human rights based on sexual orientation. (Repub. candidates were supporting Kim Davis, the mystic on the mountain who was refusing to grant people marriage licenses because they were homosexual.)
But I suppose this sort of opinion isn't really welcome here. We young are few here and our ideals of acceptance and progress frowned upon. But alas, until a better candidate comes along, Bernie Sanders 2016.

What I hear you saying is that you think Carson is a racist? Is he not a republican, is he not black and is he not spouting off ideas? Deflect much?

Congratulations, you picked at one singular word in my post. Is Carson racist towards African Americans? Probably not. Is he all of the other traits that most Republican candidates have? Yes. He's also the same man that's recently blamed the President for failing race relations saying AA's were content before Obama. Falsehood much? Nothing has changed in the past twenty years, people just have the courage to speak out now.
