According to Ben Carson, the Judicial Branch is meaningless. LOL!

I thought this guy was supposed to be smart. He's too stupid to know that he doesn't know the Constitution. Why am I not surprised?





"First of all, we have to understand how the Constitution works. The president is required to carry out the laws of the land, the laws of the land come from the legislative branch," Carson said on Tuesday. "So if the legislative branch creates a law or changes a law, the executive branch has a responsibly to carry it out. It doesn’t say they have the responsibility to carry out a judicial law. And that's something we need to talk about."

If they don't start requiring civics classes in every school, I am going to shove a pipe cleaner in my ear, until I draw blood.
