    Saw on O'Reilly last night of the good doctor ranking second next to the Wisconsin governor. Doubtful he would ever get nominated. No Black conservative had not been elected to higher office from scratch. Does anyone think if Tim Scott would had been elected after a primary?

    They always make their diversity hires and use them to dismantle any legal guarantees of equality for the minority group from which they come.

    Keyes/Carson/Cain - attack affirmative action & black officials, deny racism

    Rubio/Cruz - fight immigration reform, oppose cooperative foreign policy

    Jindal/Issa - foreign policy (in addition to Issa's fixation on Obama's internal administrative practices)

    Coulter/Fiorentina/Palin - attack women's movement, female elected officials

    Romney has decided not to run...the frenzy is in the Bush camp to secure donations...Jeb will more than likely be the GOP candidate...I sure as hell hope Hilary is in for the fight...BUSH vs CLINTON in 2016

    the political family dynasty in the US continues...I can't help but think that if the last Kennedy hopeful had not died in a plane crash that we would be voting for a Kennedy in 2016

    I think Carson only denies racism if it exists in conservative circles. He has been pretty vocal about "white liberal racism".

    Will never happen. Another black President after this one will never happen again perhaps in my lifetime. There will be a Woman, Hispanic, Asian, or even a Transgender before another black is put in there.

    I think that we'll probably have another black President and it won't be a Republican. As far as who that might be, it's anyone's guess. Cory Booker is young enough to make that run. I definitely see him being a candidate in 2020 or 2024.

    Cory would had to clean out his past. I don't know why they expect perfection in a candidate but,he may run in the next eight years provided if Michelle O does not run.

    They should have called me. I would have given it a go. :p

    Right. The old limousine liberals as the new KKK trope.

    What dirt is in Cory Booker's past??

    Just curious 'cause I never heard that before.

    I don't know of any dirt but,the GOP and conservative can enbellish a minor flaw into a major one.

    Dr. Carson. I love you Bro, but you do not stand a chance in hell after the failed presidency of the one.

    Calling Obama's presidency a failure is off the charts erroneous. 60 plus months of economic expansion, unemployment rate cut in half, deficit cut by 2/3rd's, ACA offering more coverage while containing costs according to the CBO, more solar jobs than coal now, reasonable immigration reform, stared down Putin and Assad while leading sanctions against Russia that have crippled their economy, killed bin laden, bailout packages have been paid back with interest, Dodd frank has tightened up Wall Street regulations and oversight, kept Iran from getting nuclear weapons.

    I could keep going with the impressive achievements of this administration, that are even more impressive given the economic disaster he was handed in day one.
