Why Christians Want to Vote for Dr. Ben Carson for President
“We are in fact a Judeo-Christian nation and I think that’s a huge part of our strength,” he said.
He’s also not shy discussing the state of our current government, saying that it looks like Nazi Germany.
“I know you’re not supposed to say ‘Nazi Germany,’ but I don’t care about political correctness,” he argued.
He has some straight talk about the current president, too.
“Our president is very much like (Vladimir) Putin and, ‘Oh, gee, there’s no resistance. Here, well, I will just keep going,'” he said. “The resistance needs to be there.”
What Would He Tell Obama?
And what would he want to tell President Obama if he had time with him in the Oval Office?
“I would want to tell him, ‘Sir, I understand that you have very defined ideas of what you think America is, but you work for the people, they don’t work for you,” he explained.
Carson believes the president has clearly overstepped his constitutional authority.
“Without question. Hopefully the legislators in Congress will understand what they need to do. They need to have a spine,” he said. “They need to stand up because once you allow someone to take liberties with the system, they’re not going to stop,” he said.
Carson said it’s up to the people to change America’s direction.
People need to recognize that they do have the power but they do have to exercise it,” he said. “It is our God-given duty to exercise that power.”
The devout Christian doctor is praying for God to show His power in a mighty way.
“We most definitely need a spiritual awakening,” he said. “Look at the direction we are going in. Absolute absurdity.”
Dr. Carson appears to be getting ready to tackle that absurdity in the wild world of presidential politics.
