BENJAMIN CARSONThe government is supposed to respond to the will of the people. Not dictate to the people what they are doing.
BENJAMIN CARSONPeople all over the nation are starved for honesty and common sense.
BENJAMIN CARSONEverybody has barriers and obstacles. If you look at them as containing fences that don’t allow you to advance, then you’re going to be a failure. If you look at them as hurdles that strengthen you each time you go over one, then you’re going to be a success.
BENJAMIN CARSONIf you’ve had a bumper crop, you don’t owe me triple tithes. And if you’ve had no crops at all, you don’t owe me no tithes. So there must be something inherently fair about it.
BENJAMIN CARSONSurrendering to fear and allowing ourselves to be paralyzed by peril isn’t something most of us can afford to do.
BENJAMIN CARSONNo one is ever better off with dictators but there comes a time you know, when you’re on an airplane, they always say, “in case of an emergency oxygen masks will drop down. Put yours on first and then administer help to your neighbor.” We need oxygen right now.

BENJAMIN CARSONYou can read the Constitution all you want, it never says that it is the government’s job and I think where we’ve gotten confused.

BENJAMIN CARSONBut, you know, when I look at somebody like Hillary Clinton, who sits there and tells her daughter and a government official that no, this was a terrorist attack, and then tells everybody else that it was a video. Where I came from, they call that a lie.
BENJAMIN CARSONI like the idea of a proportional tax. That way you pay according to your ability.
BENJAMIN CARSONWe recognize that North Korea is in severe financial straits, and they have decided to use their resources to build their military, rather than to feed their people and to take care of the various humanitarian responsibilities that they have.
BENJAMIN CARSONYou know, I’m a physician. I like to diagnose things. And, you know, I’ve diagnosed some pretty, pretty significant issues that I think a lot of people resonate with.
BENJAMIN CARSONThe point is, we can decry the dangers we face or ignore them or even allow ourselves to be paralyzed by fear.
BENJAMIN CARSONThrough hard work, perseverance and a faith in God, you can live your dreams.
