Who Is Dr. Ben Carson?

Benjamin S. Carson, raised in poverty in Detroit, Michigan, became a pediatric neurosurgeon at John Hopkins University, who led the team that successfully separated twins conjoined at the head in 1987, a historic first-time event.

That is an amazing achievement from a man, who as a teenager, wanted fine silk shirts like his friends wore, but his mother was unable to make money for such luxuries working as a cleaning lady. So he tried to steal money from a man to buy the more expensive duds, winding up trying to stab him. But by the grace of God, the knife hit the man's belt buckle, breaking the blade. That event caused a sea change in Carson's life, leading him to eventual high achievement in the medical community.

I know the above story is true because Dr. Carson told it as I watched what I thought would be a boring Sunday afternoon television show while living in New Jersey. Dr. Carson granted an interview between surgeries, in which he told the reporter about his early years and the efforts of his mother to make sure he and his brother got an education.

He said his mother would make him and his brother read two books a week and then give her a written report. She would then ask questions about what they had read. Not realizing it at the time, her questions came from their answers and not from the hand-written reports. They would discover later she had only a third-grade education and couldn't read.

Established 16 years ago, The Carson Scholars Fund grants money for grade 4-12 students of all backgrounds with superior academic achievement and demonstration of humanitarian qualities. It began with 25 scholarships to students in Maryland and has expanded to 5,000 in all 50 states.

Dr. Carson authored Think Big and Gifted Hands, and with his wife wrote America the Beautiful that came out last year.

While Dr. Ben Carson is an American hero, his speech today shows he is obviously no hero of an administration's continued use of political correctness to force socialism down the throats of the people it's supposed to represent.

What will America look like under a second Obama presidency? If you don't have a clue, you better find one! Check alpha by state/city where this film is playing before November 6, 2012. Unofficial bio of Gerald R. Molen. A picture is worth a thousand words! This photo was not actually aT the White House, but, regardless of WHERE it was taken, the fact is that he cancelled the National Day of Prayer, said that we are no longer a Christian nation, and has no problem taking part in Muslim prayer. U.S. President Barack Obama bows to Tampa Mayor Pam Iorio at MacDill Air Force Base on January 28, 2010, in Tampa, Florida. Iorio had honored CAIR annually in Tampa with its own day in November 2008, acknowledging the large amout of Muslims living in the area. "Ayers, now a professor at the University of Illinois at Chicago, claims to abhor nostalgia ("Nothing is more boring than some old person going on and on about the way things used to be"). But he has been thinking lately about the past—both his and the country's—and soon he will likely be engaged in what he calls "a dialogue" about the sixties, the antiwar movement, and the radical life he led. The spur for this dialogue will be the publication of Fugitive Days (Beacon Press, $24), a memoir Ayers has written about the trajectory of his life, from a pampered son of the Chicago suburbs to a young pacifist to a founder of one of the most radical political organizations in U.S. history." Allow video to download and start in Window's Media player. “The North American jet that flew Obama and his traveling crew around for much of the primary season was refurbished with new seats and power for each passenger a must on the campaign trail. And the plane that once had an American flag on its tail now sports the Obama ‘O.’”
