    I will be voting for Dr. Carson. He is an honest and experienced leader, with common sense solutions and the ability to stay calm and rational under pressure. He is supported by the people, not special interest groups, and discusses the issues, rather than attacking his fellow candidates.

    Trump comes across as a bully and an opportunist. He talks loud, but doesn't seem to have many well-developed solutions. Cruz doesn't seem to mind playing dirty if it will help him to win. We don't need a leader who will not take responsibility for the actions of people working under him. Rubio has memorized sound bites, but seems to have trouble thinking on his feet. Kasich is okay, but is still too much part of the political establishment.

    I truly hope that voters will look beyond the media spin, and do their own research on the positions and more importantly the character of each of the candidates before deciding who they trust to be their next President.

  • Ann Shane - 8 years ago

    Because Dr. Carson is a man of integrity who will heal, inspire, and revive this nation.

  • Mary Meiser - 8 years ago

    Dr. Carson is simply brilliant as well as humble. He can unite this nation. He has plans/solutions for virtually every critical issue--and has made them known at his website as well as in his book. I have been a fan of his for 25+ years, and he has yet to disappoint me.
    Those concerned about how he will survive in the DC environment---try working in the health field! I am an RN and I dare say things get vicious in both areas. Dr. Carson has risen above the nonsense in healthcare, and can rise above the nonsense in government as well.

  • Grant Giske - 8 years ago

    First Priority in selecting a candidate for President = Character
    If the Candidate does not pass the Character test, he/she is out.
    Donald Trump clearly fails with his wild trashing of other candidates
    Ted Cruz fails the character test with his dirty tricks - not just one, but numerous
    Marko Rubio fails the character test because of his trashing other candidates
    This leaves Kasich and Dr. Carson'

    Dr. Carson is a true outsider who has support of people from all ends of the political spectrum. He is the one person who can HEAL - INSPIRE - REVIVE America.

    He has consistently focused on the issues - his solutions to those issues - rather than the other candidates.

    Most importantly, he has a lifetime of "evidence based decision making". More than 15,000 brain surgeries where he was responsible for the very life of the patient on the operating table before him. Deciding whether or not to operate, what procedures to use, who to bring in to join the team - all the decisions are based upon whatever evidence (raw data) he can gather. As president Dr. Carson will shut out the trivia and make decisions based upon what he truly believes are best for America.

    Compare this to the typical politician who makes decisions based upon special interests, the next election, fund raising, in short often everything except what is best for America.

    Can Dr. Carson Win - Absolutely. As the politicians continue to trash each other the delegates chosen early in the primaries will be split between them. Voters will begin to be fed up with these candidats and switch to Dr. Carson. By convention time Dr. Carson will have adequate delegates to be heard. The super ego candidates will not be willing to instruct their delegates to one of the other super ego guys which leaves Dr. Carson.

  • Claudia Martin - 8 years ago

    Dr. Carson is the candidate that can heal, inspire and revive this Nation while working for We the People. He has published his plans/policies for all of the major issues that nerd our attention to bring us back to a Great Nation again.

  • Teri H - 8 years ago

    I will be voting for Ben Carson because we need someone with demonstrated compassion, honesty and integrity; someone with proven leadership skills, who has experience building a team of the best and brightest to work together as a team to achieve the desired goal; someone who has a vision for success and excellence, and has a the ability to inspire others to achieve that vision; someone who has real common sense solutions, not just vague statements that sound "great"; and someone who knows firsthand what amazing success we can have when we seek God for His guidance and help. Donald Trump makes lots of promises, but where is the substance of how he is going to achieve those promises; and where is his compassion and integrity? Ted Cruz worries me. I don't see compassion. He is so rigidly focused that I am unsure of his ability to see clearly all points of view and interests to actually bring this country together. Marco Rubio sounds good, but after the last debate with Christy, I saw that he really is not ready for the Presidency. We need someone who has actual experience leading, not just talking a good talk. Kasich has a record of accomplishments, and he would be my second choice of those remaining in the race at this time. On the Democrat side, neither candidate has the ability to unite this nation, and both have strayed completely from the principles this country was founded on. Dr. Carson stands above all the candidates, in my opinion, as able to actually inspire and lead this country to work together for our common good. The division must end if we are to accomplish what we truly need.

  • Teresa Petros - 8 years ago

    Not only do we need someone who can inspire, lead and get the job DONE, but we can't move forward without someone who possesses honesty and integrity. There is clearly a political revolution going on and people want an outsider. We need to look at things with a fresh perspective and think "out of the box." Why do people think it is so great that "Trump is beholden to one one (except himself)? I want someone who represents WE THE PEOPLE. We don't need a "bully outsider" and one who buys and insults his way into the White House. In short, we need a servant leader. I have no concern at all about the "lack of political experience." It is a BONUS! What we need is LEADERSHIP experience. He has already proven that by the grace of God, he can do things that have never been done. He would be a great president and one that has the best chance of healing this once great nation.

  • A C Brown - 8 years ago

    I support Ted Cruz because of all the things he's stood and fought for even when it wasn't popular! He's gone to Washington as my Senator and done exactly what he said he'd do! Proud to vote and support him!

  • J Butler - 8 years ago

    Dr. Carson has now put together 13 plans with solutions on: 1) Cyber Security; 2) Defeating the Islamic State; 3) Defense & Foreign Policy; 4) Education; 5) Energy; 6) Government Reform; 7) Health Care; 8) Immigration; 9) Investigate CAIR; 10) Pro-life; 11) Tax Reform; 12) Veterans. And 13) Cut Spending. Has any other candidate posted their plans with solutions? Do any other candidates have even a fourth of the plans and solutions Carson has? -- The answer is NO, they to not!

  • D. White - 8 years ago

    My vote is for Dr. Carson. The reason is because I believe this man to be genuine in his desire to see America become once again the shining city on the hill. We disparately need a man of intigriy and of good moral fiber in the highest office in the land. His quite strength, his calm demenor! I believe, speaks volumes as to how he would handle adversity.

    He is far and above the most intelligent person running on both sides. He has the most life experience. He has accomplish the most achievements. He has written the most books. He has the most experience under pressure and remaining calm under pressure. He has the most experience in assembly teams who accomplish impossible tasks. He is able to decipher information quickly and arrive at a wise well thought out decision.

    His tax plan has been review by several prominent institutions and said to be the best growth plan of all the candidates. His positions reflect more closely what I believe our country needs.

  • Emily - 8 years ago

    I am voting for Ben because he has integrity and humility AND because he doesn't owe Washingnton anything. I have every faith that he will do well as president because of those characteristics he possesses.

  • Linda ONeal - 8 years ago

    I voted for Ben Carson because I feel he is the ONLY conservative candidate that can heal our very troubling country. He has more credentials making him worthy of the job of Commander in Chief than any one of the other's.

  • Peggy Broderick - 8 years ago

    Laura M my sentiments EXACTLY! I was going to say it's not just one thing that I feel/think Dr. Carson can take care of but, ALL the issues! He NEEDS to be POTUS! People need to get 'onboard' with him! AND I don't understand why the media does not include him when talking about the candidates - it's like they just want him to go away ... but, he said he was going to stay till the end AND I believe him - I support Dr. Ben Carson totally!

  • Laura M - 8 years ago

    I would like to see Dr. Ben Carson win the nomination and the Presidency, for A LOT of reasons. 1. He is the brightest, most honest, articulate, logical-minded candidate in the race. His list of accomplishments far outnumbers the other candidates' put together,mainly in the humanitarian field, but also education-wise, business-wise, scientific-wise, and benevolent-wise.
    2. Dr. Carson is NOT an establishment Republican, is not married to special interest groups and party dictatorship.
    3. Dr. Carson's workable plans for flat taxes and a simple tax code system, individual healthcare savings accounts, fiscal responsibility, and foreign policies are brilliant and will actually SOLVE problems! (Something the democrats/establishment Republicans have forgotten or refused to do in recent years).
    4. Dr. Carson is a unifier, a peacemaker, and a world-renowned promoter of healing and growth. Yet, he will not give or accept excuses, threats to American safety or freedom, and will set an example of professionalism and exceptionalism that will spread down from the top, soon eliminating this rabid anger, hatred, and injustice that the current administration promotes and delights in.
    5. He will preside over his responsibilities with grace and dignity Americans can take pride in, and other Nations will look up to with respect.

    So many reasons... I hope that anyone who sees any potential for America to be OURS again will look into this candidate. Watch a speech- not a sound bite. Watch an interview- not a mainstream media-manufactured agenda-driven talk show. Read one of his books, or watch the fascinating movie about his life!

  • Sharon A - 8 years ago

    I want a candidate who will defend the constitution reduce federal givernment, who has a proven track record.

  • Billie Narron - 8 years ago

    Dr. Ben Carson is my pick and got my actual vote. He is so far ahead of the others in honesty and integrity. He wants to give the government back to the people. He would bring together people to help him and make our country truly a power country again.

  • Keith Beach - 8 years ago

    Seeing Trump for the con man that he truly is I could not even consider him . I like Carson but feel as though Washington would eat him alive and spit him out . Ted Cruz is a brilliant statesman who has the backbone and know how to get us back on track from the horrid past 8 years . Ted Cruz is the man and has my support and vote .

  • Sue Bolen - 8 years ago

    Honesty, integrity, wisdom, humility, intelligence, loves the Constitution, Drafted by WE THE PEOPLE and not beholden to any wealthy donors or special interest groups, has intelligent plans and strategies for the serious issues facing our country, NOT a divider but a UNITER. These all describe none other than Dr. Benjamin Solomon Carson who is an outsider who truly cares about America and the American people. He talks softly so that people can truly stop and listen to the intelligent and wise things he has to offer to help this ailing country. He is running for the highest office in the land, not for himself but for WE THE PEOPLE. He doesn't seek fame or think that being President is winning a reality show. He takes this very seriously and doesn't waste everyone's time with bickering or clawing someone's back to get ahead. YES, I AM VOTING FOR DR. BEN CARSON FOR PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA AND I SHOUT IT PROUDLY.

  • Diane Brodeen - 8 years ago

    Dr. Carson is my only choice, because of his honesty, integrity, wisdom, intelligence, humility. He loves God, America, and the Constitution. He didn't choose to run, but was drafted by We the People. I won't vote for another childish, self-seeking narcissist, RINO, or career politician. Dr. Carson has given detailed plans to solve each of the important issues facing America. As the media and GOP establishment have silenced him, he has listed his positions on his website, www.BenCarson.com.
    Dr. Carson polls highest in favorability and in ability to beat H.C.
    He is not owned by special interest groups or millionaires, and is beholden to no one but We the People. #WinBenWin!

  • Joy Hall - 8 years ago

    I will vote for Ted Cruz for ALL your reasons plus getting our lands back from the Feds

  • John L. Battey - 8 years ago

    Dr. Ben Carson is the only candidate who is not infected with the disease that make politician believe that their Party is more important than the Constitution or the American People.

  • Robin HInson - 8 years ago

    My Candidate, Dr Ben Carson is the best one for the job. He his honest to the core, he is an outsider and is not a politician. Trump is a democrat through and through He is a it will be my way or no way kind of man that will end up getting us, the nation, in to a lot of trouble we do not need nor want. Ted Cruz has proven over and over that he does and will use dirty politics to get what he wants. Just look who he hired to lead his campaign Jeff Rowe is a very dangerous person. So is Cruz. He is a liar and a cheat. Just the same as what we have now. Cruz just does not have it in him to lead this Country. No record at all in the position he now holds, and was a co author of Gang of 8, which should say enough about where his loyalties really lie. I have done extensive research on all the candidates. I do not listen to what spews from their mouths, but I look at his very way of life.

  • Tracee Francway - 8 years ago

    Ted Cruz is either ignored by, or ousted by, the mainstream media and by the Establishment. This along with my personal research on all the candidates is why I chose him as the most forthcoming with the truth. With MSM and establishment against him, I call that a SOUND endorsement.

  • P J Arnold - 8 years ago

    Because he has already done so much for each American. A person's past performance is indicative of future performance and it's really that simple.
