Saw this interview with Kaba Kamene, who I have respect for, & his knowledge plus he has been around for a while unlike some others ; talks about Dr. Ben Carson's statements about who build the great pyramids of Giza. Dr. Ben Carson said it was Joseph & the pyramids was build to store grain . Now for those who have been following Ben Carson knows he makes some very odd, & weird statements . Also discussed was the African origins of Star Wars. I thought this was a great talk with a Black man that knows his Egyptology.

Ben Carson is an enigma wrapped up in a mystery,how can one excel in one area of science to be know as among the best if not the best neuroscientist in the world and be so appallingly ignorant in other areas I used to think he was just clowning for his conservative base,but no! this speech was given yrs ago and just now he condemned those student protester along with Donald Trump Carson, Trump Bash Mizzou Student Protestswww.thedailybeast.com/cheats/2015/11/12/carson-trump-bash-mizzou-protests.htmlSo now he is busy turning himself into Fox News Tom..very disappointed.

Yeah, Carson is an intelligent man but he comes off as quite misinformed on a number of things, or he is deliberately exaggerating statements to appeal to the right wing evangelical "base." Maybe that's his job- to mobilize "the base" of the Tea Party/religRight crowd. Just like Bernie Sanders is the front man to mobilize the more left wing types. Once their stalking horse jobs are complete- they will exit the field and turn the reins over to the anointed bosses. It is a sure thing Hilary will be the Dem boss for the 2016 run. The Reps are still to be decided but I think Carson is too naive in the ways of Washington to be a serious contenda next year. I more see him as a vice presidential pick. After 4 years in Washington as VP he might be a more competitive contenda but you never know.
