Well yea the timing is appropriate...it's black history month and he has a movie out. I've always held him in high regards, i just nevermade a thread about it. Well here it is, better late than never.
 
I had a friend who worked in a school that was named after Ben Carson...she told me that they were trying to get him to come speak at the school and he wanteda few G's to make an appearance.

Needless to say they found someone else to do it....sucks that you can't make an appearance after a school named after yourself.

As far as his accomplishments goes though he is very appreciated.

He just got back from Nigeria, they paid him 50 grand to speak. My alma mater Tufts paid him 20000 to speak. He's a busy man.
 
I am very curious Anton LaVey, I know you said he lives in a mansion, but is he really a materialistic person? Does he live an extravagent lifestyle?

not at all.

his fam stays bummy.

they lack nothing though.
 
I work at Hopkins and had the opportunity to meet him a couple of times. He does appear to be rather normal considering all the stuff he has achieved. He isoften quiet when he moves through the halls and doesn't make himself known.

Much better than a couple of those other idiots that write books and come through distributing them, then trying to ridicule people.

not at all.

I agree. Dude could use a haircut and a shave.

QFT his family is frugal as can be bu they have a nice house and a lot of land. He's wealthy but not showy by any means. If u saw his son incollege u would've never guessed his fam was rich. He stayed bummy.

Hey me too...didnt watch the movie yet tho...
 
High quality grave dig. :lol:


Look at how the public tenure on Ben Carson has changed, from shinning example of black excellence, to ignoramus and possible uncle tom.
