There is no reason that you can't be perfectly fair to the gay co... by Ben Carson

There is no reason that you can't be perfectly fair to the gay community.

If you happen to be in an affluent community, there's a lot more money for the schools, better facilities, everything. All that does is perpetuate the situation, wouldn't it make more sense to put the money in a pot and redistribute it throughout the country so that public schools are equal, whether you're in a poor area or a wealthy area?

I think it's very different than a situation where someone is working hard, is making a lot of money, is providing a lot of jobs and is contributing to the fabric of America, and us going along and saying, 'Well, this one, he has too much, and this guy over here, he has too little, so let's just take this one's and give it to that one.' That's much more arbitrary, we are talking about the entire nation.

I'm talking about the fact that there are a lot of public schools that exist in areas that are economically deprived that don't have the facilities that are necessary to provide the best education for our children.

I'm not talking about getting rid of those programs. by Ben Carson

I'm not talking about getting rid of those programs.

The program that I have outlined … largely eliminates the need for people to be dependent on government programs like that, i would never get rid of the programs. I would provide people with an alternative.

That was the old plan. by Ben Carson

That was the old plan.

My energy levels are perfectly fine, as I've said many times, there have been many times where I've operated 12, 15, 20 hours, and that requires a lot of energy. Doesn't require a lot of jumping up and down and screaming, but it does require a lot of concentration.

We have to recognize that we can't just round them up, but we can give them an opportunity to register, i would give them an opportunity to become guest workers -- not citizens, not voting people, not people who get goodies. I think that would be a fair way to do it. In terms of them becoming citizens later on down the road if they've done things the right way, we the American people will decide what the criteria for that ought to be.

I don't feel the need for it, quite frankly. But the Secret Service thinks that I need it. So, you know, it is what it is.

Candy is having a blast meeting supporters throughout Iowa -- best part is reading to Jordan Creek Elem. students.

Of course I want the Voting Rights Act to be protected. Whether we still need it or not or whether we've outgrown the need for it is questionable, maybe we have, maybe we haven't. But I wouldn't jeopardize it.

He may well be right, but I don't see the disadvantage in maintaining the right.

Gun control only works for normal law abiding citizens. It doesn'... by Ben Carson

Gun control only works for normal law abiding citizens. It doesn't work for crazies.

I beg to differ, if you go back and look at the history of the world, tyranny and despotism and how it starts, it has a lot to do with control of thought and control of speech.

I support a plan that is much flatter and fairer, i also strongly believe that every American should pay something according to their means. We are all Americans and we all have the same rights and responsibilities.

While I applaud Donald's plan as a step in the right direction. We must go further. We must get the IRS out of our lives, eliminating the tax code and a mountain of regulations will cause our economy to explode with growth. The IRS isn't the answer, it is the problem.

As a general principle, people can do whatever they want on their private property -- that's one of the basic tenets of freedom in America, i am not opposed to anybody doing whatever they want to do on their private property.

I guess as a message to us. by Ben Carson

I guess as a message to us.

I would have problems with somebody who embraced all the doctrines associated with Islam, if they are not willing to reject sharia and all the portions of it that are talked about in the Quran -- if they are not willing to reject that, and subject that to American values and the Constitution, then of course, I would.
