Speaker 1 (00:00):
And Carson joins us. Now I want to talk about
that debate and more.

Speaker 2 (00:03):
Doctor. Appreciate you taking the time to be here with
us again today, My pleasure.

Speaker 3 (00:08):
Thank you.

Speaker 1 (00:09):
Fantastic opportunity. By the way, we had got to sit
next to you and have dinner at the Oakland County
Republican Lincoln Dinner. Fantastic speech. We had a great time
to thank you again for doing that.

Speaker 3 (00:23):
It was wonderful being back in the Detroit area. And
I would just say to the audience today, I hope
we all remember and pray for the families that were
affected at nine to eleven twenty three years ago. Credible
that it's been that long, but the impact still remains.

Speaker 2 (00:41):
You know, it really is.

Speaker 1 (00:43):
I think maybe a missed opportunity. Are One of our
newsgals this morning actually made this point. She was there
September eleventh working for the ABP, subsequently went on to
cover trials, and in fact, not only was she there
on September eleven, she was there with the initial attack

(01:04):
as well, and she said that a lot of this
actually it weighs heavily on the fact that Bill Clinton
didn't do the right thing years ago when the opportunity
after the initial attack on the World Trade Center and
should have done more. What's interesting to me in her

(01:25):
point she's made that she said, I think she initially
said that there could have been done, more done. There
would be no nine to eleven had Bill Clinton, Janet
Reno declared it a radical Islamic terrorist attack and taken
out Asama bin Lan when they had the chance to
do that. But this reminds me of where we are today.

(01:46):
She made the same point this morning. She said, you know,
we missed opportunity that President could have mentioned. You know,
the day before September eleventh. The border is wide open,
and we've never been less safe and less secure we've
we've seen threats are through the roof again.

Speaker 3 (02:06):
Yeah, that's exactly right. We're oblivious to what's going on.
And then, of course, after the next attack, and there
is one coming, believe me, because you can't let all
these terrorists in here and they'll be sitting here twidling
their thumbs, they're planning something, and then we'll be all saying,
why didn't we do anything. It's it's frustrating for thinking

(02:30):
people to see what's happening with our country.

Speaker 2 (02:34):
You know, I can't help us think.

Speaker 1 (02:37):
As I mentioned, I really I believe it after you
watch what we watched last night, and as bad as
it was, one of our folks this morning, James Dixon
said that he believes what we saw was another attempted assassination,
a political assassination. Last night, he said, you know, he
actually gives President Trump credit for surviving it. He said

(02:59):
they threw everything they had at him, and they only
nicked his ear. Everything from the moderator's fact check. I
thought it was fantastic point moderators fact checking him. Really,
he had to fight all three of them at the
same time, and yet he survived.

Speaker 2 (03:15):
I agree.

Speaker 1 (03:18):
I think the real losers because he took winner and
losers in this debate. But doctor Ben Carson with this
right now, doctor, what do you think? I mean, it's
got to be the voters who didn't really get any
new answers.

Speaker 3 (03:30):
Now they got zero answers at all, and you know,
Kimala Harris has completely turned around. I thought it was
sort of Opera Poe that Trump said I was going
to send you a mega hat. But Bernie Sanders, Bernie
Sanders had it right when he said she will say

(03:51):
what is expedient, what is politically expedient, whatever she needs
to say to get elected, And why is it that
isn't upset with her abandoning her very leftist policies because
they know she really hasn't abandoned them. And that's what
she meant when she said my values haven't changed. That

(04:12):
was just her way of saying to them, don't worry,
we got you. We're just as radical and leftist as
we ever have them, but we'll say what we need
to say. They really, I don't think the American people
most of them are going to fall for it. There
will be some, of course, and you have to recognize

(04:32):
that every time Marxism socialism takes over a country, the
first thing they do is they dumb down the population
so that you can easily gaslight people. You can say,
don't believe your ears, don't believe your eyes, don't believe
your feelings. You know, just listen to us. We'll tell
you what you're supposed to think.

Speaker 2 (04:54):
That's a big question with us right now. You know.

Speaker 1 (04:57):
I just watched this weekend. We got a chance to
sit down and watch the Reagan movie, and I thought
it was very well done and I really reminded to
your point about dumbing down the population. There are people
I've seen social media in the last week or two

(05:17):
that are openly and very publicly talking about communism. And
why these are younger people, you know, I'm maybe twenties
thirties in that edge range. But the fact that we
say communist and Marxist and we talk about these policies
and that's exactly what they are coming out of Kamala Harris.

Speaker 2 (05:39):
But those things used to be bad words. You didn't
want to be called a comedie.

Speaker 3 (05:44):
You know.

Speaker 1 (05:45):
Now we call our comrade Kamala Harris, and these things
don't seem to have the same stinger bite as they
used to. Because the American public has been dumbed down
so much they don't realize how bad it is.

Speaker 3 (06:02):
That's exactly right. And you know, I think a lot
of the young people when they talk about socialism, they
think you're talking about familiarity at social media. They don't
really know what they're talking about. And if you go
back and study the history of these places, it's very chilling.
But you don't have to go back very far. Just

(06:23):
look at Venezuela, just so so you know, they were
the number one economy in South America, and I'd been
there a number of times, you know, beautiful hotels and
resorts and museums, and people were happy. They argued about
whether they were the most beautiful people in the world.

(06:43):
That was their big issue. And once socialism took hold,
they went from the number one economy to last, with
people fleeing from there. And it happened almost overnight, and
it happens very quickly, and it's all about fooling people.

(07:04):
And I just wish people would study history and with
understand what's going on. We have a responsibility. You know,
our government was formed in a way that it would
be people centric, formed by the people, but it does
require some responsibility on behalf of the people. You have

(07:24):
to do your own research. You have to know who
the people are, who you're voting for, and most people
just look for the name that looks familiar, and that
doesn't work.

Speaker 1 (07:35):
Doctor Ben Carson with us right now, as we discussed
the debate last night and the issues surrounding all these things,
you know, we understand what's at stake. I think now
more than ever. Folks that listen to this program at
talk radio in general are.

Speaker 2 (07:54):
Very aware of these threats.

Speaker 1 (07:56):
They're very aware of what's I think most people are
if they're not, though they are on the very surface,
the average everyday person, even if they're being overwhelmed with
some of the things that are happening, the cost of
groceries and guests and everything else, they're aware of those
things and they're very personal. They're hitting home, and they're
not getting answers as to how they're going to fix them.

(08:16):
And I thought President Trump last night, in his closing arguments,
made a very good point, You've had three and a
half years, You've got all these plans.

Speaker 2 (08:25):
Why aren't you doing any of it now?

Speaker 3 (08:30):
And you noticed she didn't have any answer to that
throughout the whole debate, and didn't have answers for most things,
but the moderators would not press her on them. They
wouldn't say, well, the question remains. They never did that,
and they never fact checked, and she told some more operas.

(08:51):
So you know, I hope people are observing that because
one of the most severe problems that we have right
now now in this country is a dishonest media. And
that was a major part of the way that our
country was put together. The press was the only business

(09:12):
entity that was protected by a constitution because they were
supposed to disseminate unbiased information to the people. They're supposed
to be the ones asking the questions and getting these
things out in front of the people and unbiased, even
handed way, they've abandoned that. And a lot of times

(09:32):
when I talked to young journalists, I say, you can
be on the forefront. You can be on the vanguard
of changing who the media is in bringing honesty and
decency back, because I think you would find if most
people had the real facts, they could make much better decisions.

Speaker 2 (09:55):
Absolutely, we'll just have to keep.

Speaker 3 (09:58):
Praying that that will be the case, that we will
get some young journalists who will see a responsibility for
bringing honor back to that profession.

Speaker 1 (10:09):
At eight forty six, right now, twenty three years ago today,
the first Tower was struck twenty three years ago, to
this very moment, the North Tower, September eleventh is a
day that we look back again and we we make
that call never forget. But doctor Carson, I just wonder

(10:33):
how far we've come if we've forgotten, you know, the
evils of communism, if we've possibly forgotten the evils of
that terrorism, and how it got us to where we
are now and how close we are, as you mentioned earlier,
really doomed, really to repeat these mistakes and these evils

(10:56):
over again.

Speaker 2 (10:58):
You mentioned prayer.

Speaker 1 (11:00):
What else can be done to waken the American people
up and of course revive this nation so that we
don't see these things over and over again.

Speaker 3 (11:12):
Well, we're turned from the time that we're little children.
There are two things you should never discussed in public,
politics and religion. Those are the exact things we need
to be discussing. That's where the erosion is occurring. And
evil does not like to work in light. They don't

(11:33):
want to be talked about. They don't want to be
shining the light on what they're doing. We need to
start talking to each other, and we need to recognize
that it's okay to have a disagreement. That doesn't make
someone your enemy just because you disagreed with them. As
I always say, if two people agree about everything, one
of them isn't necessary, and we're all necessary. We just

(11:57):
need to talk to each other, recognize that we are
friends and neighbors and colleagues and associates. We are not enemies.
And one of the ways to get to this country
and to destroy it and to facilitate the globalist network

(12:20):
is to bring down the United States. But they can't
bring us down militarily. The only way they can bring
us down is internally from within. Make us think that
we're enemies on the basis of race, age, income, gender, religion,
political affiliation. That's not the case. And our strength has

(12:41):
always been our sense of community, and when that is destroyed,
the rest of us will be destroyed. In due time,
we initially need to understand what's going on in our country.
As far as the terrorists are concerned. They are having
a holiday, You mean, we can just go down there

(13:03):
and go through the southern border and do what we
need to do. Believe me, they are here and droves
and they are figuring out what to do, and we
are just being ignorant and allowing it to happen. And
then we're going to complain bitterly after it happens and

(13:23):
point fingers at each other when we should be closing
our borders and getting rid of people who don't belong here,
sending them back somewhere. There's consequences for that. People have
known that since there have been civilization. You can't just
have a country with open borders and have no consequences for.

Speaker 1 (13:45):
That, Doctor Ben Carson, always a pleasure. We'll love to
have you back on in the days ahead. As we
see now, that's fifty some odd days until election day,
in the most consequential election, not just I think of
our lifetimes, but maybe in the nation's history. Thank you
so much for continuing the fire.

Speaker 2 (14:03):
You've got it.

Speaker 3 (14:04):
God bless praying for our countrymen.

Speaker 2 (14:08):
M Back program coming up.
