Dr. Ben Carson Switches Political Parties

No... the headline above is no joke. Dr. Ben Carson just now switched political parties...




(WND) It’s not just the United States Senate that switched political parties on Election Day.

Ben Carson, the neurosurgeon and conservative phenomenon who rocketed to fame when he challenged Barack Obama at a prayer breakfast last year, also officially changed his political affiliation, moving from independent to Republican.

The step is another indication Carson may run for president in 2016.

Carson, whose career was spent as a doctor at Johns Hopkins University Hospital in Maryland, filed the paperwork in his new home county of Palm Beach, Florida, a traditional Democratic Party stronghold.

"It’s truly a pragmatic move because I have to run in one party or another. If you run as an independent, you only risk splitting the electorate," Carson told the Washington Times just after making the change. "I clearly would not be welcome in the Democratic Party, and so that only leaves one party."

  2. Try to find out more about Dr. Carson. Read his books which are best sellers. And if you're not impress, I don't think there is someone who can impress you.

  3. Sorry, but I still don't trust him or any other black in the WH at this point. Not racist or anything but we do know what this asshole has stood for, and anyone else will have to prove themselves to me first. If this guy switched parties so quick right now, what will he do later. Bloomers in NYC was the same way, from dem, to independent, then Repub, and back to dem again.

  4. I would vote for anyone who has common sense, which this man who calls himself president and the majority of members of Congress have no common sense.
    We should get rid of political parties. We should be voting for the qualified person, not the party.
