http://thinkprogress.org/election/2014/09/28/3573103/ben-carson-anarchy-election/Dr. Ben Carson, a popular Tea Party activist and Fox News contributor who says he will likely seek the Republican nomination for president in 2016, said on Sunday that he is seriously concerned that there will not be 2016 elections in the United States because the country could be in anarchy by that point. His reasons: the growing national debt, ISIS, and the U.S. Senates refusal to consider legislation passed by the GOP-controlled House of Representatives.

Yeah, I know, as soon as you see the name Ben Carson, it's time to ignore and move on.
Here Ben, look at this:
I know you said debt and not deficit, but which party has actually done something about the debt and which party spends without any regard to the debt?

because of terrorism, while ignoring who the real terrorists were, the GOP. They really hate elections because that's when the people get a chance to speak and it terrifies them. SSDD.

It will be yet another GOP candidate for us to laugh at.
For someone so intelligent, Carson doesn't have a lick of common sense.
