Geee Posted August 17, 2015 Share Posted August 17, 2015 Washington Examiner: Ben Carson isn't pandering to voters in Iowa, telling them Sunday that he would phase out agricultural subsidies if elected president. The Republican candidate, however, said that he would allow 10 years for the policy to take effect. "Particularly when you're talking about renewable fuel standards and things, there are a lot of promises that have been made that really extend all the way out to 2022, and people have made plans based on those kind of things," Carson said Sunday. "You can't just pull out the rug out from under people." The reform was just one of several Carson was asked about after an appearance at the "soapbox" at the Iowa State Fair sponsored by the Des Moines Register.

Geee Posted August 17, 2015 Author Share Posted August 17, 2015 Carson: ‘Stop Listening to These People Who Tell Us That We Cannot Talk About God’ CNSNews.com) – Republican presidential candidate Ben Carson won an enthusiastic response from an audience at the Iowa State Fair Sunday as he called for Americans to unify to confront problems facing the nation – and made a fervent case for talking about God. “We have to stop listening to these people who tell us that we cannot talk about God, we cannot talk about our faith,” the retired neurosurgeon said. “I wonder, do they realize that our founding document, our Declaration of Independence, talks about certain inalienable rights given to us by our Creator – aka God?” he asked. Carson went on to note the key references to God in the pledge of allegiance, on the walls of U.S. courtrooms, and on coins and banknotes. “So, if it’s in our founding documents, it’s in our pledge, it’s in our courts and it’s on our money, but we’re not supposed to talk about it, what in the world is that?” he said. “In medicine we call it schizophrenia, a form of craziness.” http://cnsnews.com/news/article/patrick-goodenough/carson-stop-listening-these-people-who-tell-us-we-cannot-talk-about Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
