SPRINGFIELD, Illinois - Over 1100 Sangamon County Republicans braved the cold in Springfield Tuesday to hear Dr. Ben Carson at their annual Lincoln birthday celebration, local TV media reports.

The world-renowned physician and author has strong conservative opinions about how to heal divisiveness in Washington; and he says it starts with voters.

"I would like to see [people] learn who their representatives are; so that when they go into the voting booth, they're not looking for a "D" or "R" or name that looks familiar. They know exactly who that person is and what they voted for and was that something consistent with their values."

Carson believes a big issue destroying our country is fiscal irresponsibility. Right now, national debt stands at more than $17.3 trillion. America's approval rating of Congress averaged a historic low of 14-percent last year, according to Gallup polls. So what does he think we need from our political leaders?  "I think what we need now from leaders is courage," Carson said.

DR. BEN CARSON FOR PRESIDENT PETITION

SIGN THE PETITION

Whether or not you believe Dr. Ben Carson is a strong candidate for the Office of President of the United States, Dr. Ben Carson has entered the political arena with a bang with his speech at the Congressional Prayer Breakfast.  His subsequent appearances in the news media continue to give him notoriety as a spokesman for common sense voters across the board.  His articulate and poised mannerisms are a refreshing change for the vitriolic dialog with which we have become so familiar.

Here is what the "Draft Ben Carson Committee" had to say:

NATIONAL DRAFT BEN CARSON FOR PRESIDENT COMMITTEE

"Some say you should elect someone who has government experience. It is true that Ben Carson has never apologized for America around the world, never driven the country deeper into unsustainable debt and never forced fellow medical professionals to commit abortions.

Dr. Ben Carson offers a different set of experiences.  Unlike the President, he grew up poor and clawed his way to educational and professional excellence.  Carson is right on the issues. He can destroy any Democrat's black voter base... and can heal our country from racial division intentionally made worse by this administration."

"SPEAK UP," SAYS BEN CARSON

When asked what needs to be done about morbidly obese government, Carson admonishes: "Speak up."

QUOTE: Asked what he would do in the next few months if he were head of the Republican National Committee (RNC), Carson said he would encourage Americans to speak up.

"The main thing I would do is try to help Americans…to recognize that they need to speak up for what they believe in. They should not allow themselves to be bludgeoned into silence by the secular progressive media and other people," said Carson." (End quote)
