- Benjamin Solomon "Ben" Carson, Sr., was born September 18, 1951 in Detroit, Michigan, to Sonya (née Copeland),and Robert Solomon Carson.
- Ben Carson was raised a Democrat, but became a registered Independent.
- Ben Carson: “I voted for George McGovern enthusiastically along with multitudes of young people, all of us looking forward to a utopian world of peace & love.” (January 2012)
- Ben Carson discusses/promotes “tithing to the government”, citing Jesus but which advocates government force on innocent people.
- During an interview on Glenn Beck‘s radio show, Dr. Benjamin Carson suggested that you shouldn’t be able to own semi-automatic weapons in large cities.
When asked by Beck whether people should be allowed to own “semi-automatic weapons,” Carson replied, “It depends on where you live.”
“I think if you live in the midst of a lot of people, and I’m afraid that that semi-automatic weapon is going to fall into the hands of a crazy person, I would rather you not have it,” Carson explained.

- Ben Carson: “In the scenario originally envisioned by the founding fathers, dedicated citizens served in Congress for a few years and then returned to their original walks of life. One solution to the problem of special interest groups might be to lengthen the term one serves as a representative from 2 years to 6, 8, or even 10 years… Can you even imagine how much more efficiently and logically our government would work under such a circumstance?” (January 2012)
- Ben Carson on healthcare: One solution would be to remove from the insurance companies the responsibility for catastrophic health-care coverage, making it a government responsibility [like FEMA insures against hurricanes]. Clearly, if the health-care insurance companies did not have to cover catastrophic health care, it would be relatively easy by analyzing actuarial tables to determine how much money they are likely to be liable for each year. With this information at our disposal, health insurance companies could be regulated just as utilities are regulated.
