BEN CARSONThere is no such thing as a politically correct war.
BEN CARSONWell, when did this become a monarchy? You know, we are the people. The president works for us and, you know, we need to remember that.
BEN CARSONNo matter how good you are at planning, the pressure never goes away. So I don’t fight it. I feed off it. I turn pressure into motivation to do my best.
BEN CARSONYou can understand why I’m a believer. I have seen miracles.
BEN CARSONThere is no one that we can afford to throw away.
BEN CARSONKids have what I call a built-in hypocrisy antenna that comes up and blocks out what you’re saying when you’re being a hypocrite.

BEN CARSONI just happen to believe that people are not stupid. And the way I will come at it is to educate people, help people to actually understand that it is that progressive movement that is causing them the problems.

And believe me, if we gave them the mission, which is what the commander-in-chief does, they would be able to carry it out.
BEN CARSONI would like people to recognize in looking at my story that the person who has the most to do with what happens to you is you. It’s not the environment, it’s not the other people who were there trying to help you or trying to stop you. It’s what you decide to do and how much effort you put behind it.
BEN CARSONNobody is starving on the streets. We’ve always taken care of them. We take care of our own; we always have. It is not the government’s responsibility.
