    If Dr Carson is the candidate in 2016 I'll vote for him because the first and most important thing is to wrest control of the Fed.Gov from Demonrats.

    That said, I'm hoping that he's teachable because in most other regards I think he's a fine man and would make a decent president. Although I'd rather see him as Surgeon General under someone like a President Cruz or President Paul (or if we're dreamin' a President West).

    He is most certainly educated enough to know exactly what he said. Without the 2A the rest are history. Therefore, I for one will not vote for a person that needs to be taught.

    So you would not vote for ChunkyMonkey?

    Again, I have to shake my head in exasperation.

    I'm confused??? Carson has made it crystal clear about his feelings on semi auto's. He is smart enough to know what his words on this subject mean.

    I'm honestly looking for education here, not confrontation. Why would I even entertain the thought of putting this guy in the White House when he's obviously anti 2A?

    I'm with you on this now. That was one of the dumbest thing I've heard a Republican say. Sorry I'm looking you in the eyes right now.

    I've got a much better one that I want to use, but the forum won't let me use a GIF. Maybe that will change when I get off probation. If so, you boys will actually look forward to me posting.

    I may be considered a heretic to some 2A hardcore people but the needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few. His feelings about the 2A may never even translate into action because there are bigger things to worry about yet he still gets the ire of 2A fanatics. So guess who we'll get. That's right: Hillary Clinton. So when you decide to throw your vote in for the most obscure party candidate simply because his or her stance on the 2A falls perfectly in line with yours, you'll end up with the someone who is outright anti gun and then you'll wonder how the hell that happened.

    I truly believe that the 2A protects the rest.

    If our 2A rights are not secure, none of our rights are.

    That said, I agree that if it comes down to it stopping the Demonrats is more important than getting a perfect conservative Republican in office.

    Like I said before, if he ends up being the nominee I'll vote for him, but I'm less likely to support him in the primaries if he doesn't change his position on the 2A.
