95% of blacks STOPPED listening to Carson, once he became a right wing nut.
Are you implying that 95% of blacks are welfare cases?
So here are some facts. Over 75% of blacks have NEVER received ANY welfare benefits in their lives.
When Ben Carson was going to college and when he was in Med school his politics were like that of most Northern blacks, slightly left of center, and firmly a Democrat. He voted for George McGovern, who was slightly conservative.
The values which motivated him to go to school and to achieve success were the SAME as those of other middle class blacks, 90% of whom will vote for Hillary in November
His politics shifted to the right, AFTER HE HAD ALREADY ACHIEVED his success. It was motivated by his religious beliefs, which meant that even though he is a scientist he scoffs as scientific evidence, and believes that Adam & Eve are real. Like the Wahabis, he has a LITERAL interpretation of the bible.
