#1 Carson is an absolute American treasure. I hope he somehow makes his way into politics or government.

#2 Family breakdown was Detroit's problem thirty years ago.

Its problem now is that we went ahead and paid for more of it.

#4 Family breakdown was the consequences of liberal Democrat policies. Paying more if the father leaves, feeding into the poor me victim mentality, having the graft and corruption sucking up all the money that could have maybe helped. Community organizers, race baiters like Obama and Jesse and Al all served to destroy the family.

Anyone that could left and what you see are the dregs that couldn't/wouldn't.

#5 Raised by a single mother, Carson says his family situation was the exception to the rule in the 1950s.

That which the Left(tm)can not acknowledge is the dark side of desegregation - Black upper and middle class flight. Instead of government acting as a proxy by not tolerating behaviors that those who left never tolerated, government institutions blamed everyone else but the perps for their actions. Government subsidized those behaviors and like most human behavior, simply got more of the same thing.
