ben carson. doctor, good to have you with us. thank you so much for joining us today. >> good to be with you. >> dr. carson, first of all, react to the ruling itself and what it really does mean to americans in 36 states. >> basically, the law, which, of course, is voluminous states that the subsidies are for people who work through state exchanges. it seems like the logical thing to do rather than putting on your musicians hat and trying to figure out what congress meant. send it back to congress and ask them, what did you guys mean? it's not like they're in timbuktu. they're right around the corner. >> they're on vacation right now, dr. carson. that's the problem. they take five weeks off while all of this is going on. >> even if we have to wait five weeks, we can still find out what they meant. i think they would be quite, frankly, quite afraid to send it back because, you know, as nancy pelosi said, you have to pass it before you find out what's in it. now that we found out what's in it, there's not a chance it would pass. the

more are now even if this experiment was legal it's definitely an ethical and a very very ugly ben carson there is speech at the national organization for marriages march for marriage event last week the republican party's favorite dr had so. unusual things to say about the origins of same sex. if you look in a lot of the writings of the neal marxist when they talk about the new world order . he said there's only one stick in the mud the united states how do you get them out of the way or how do you change them and they said there were two fundamental things did you dale christian faith. and their strong families those were the things that had to be attacked in those things have been systematically attacked that's right ben carson thinks the same sex marriage is part of a nail maat marxist plot to create the new world order fact that anyone could actually think that is true is just very very odd. coming up america is some bonus to be a constitutionally limited representative democratic republic so why are there a handful of monarchs running around in washington d.c. or on the tides delete

ben carson. second of all, just as an i am not inican, the inter-workings of what you do everyday, but just looking at this, it looks like a coward's way out. congress has the power and they could have done something about benghazi, they could have done something about fast and furious, they could've done something about the irs, the list goes on. instead of standing up and having a backbone, you guys try to take this layout? this is putting politics ahead of our country. host: let's get an answer to the powers first. guest: fast and furious is making its way through the courts. there will be an answer on that so that has not stopped or gone away. october 1 ofber last year, we exercise the power when the majority leader of the senate said we are not talking to you anymore. a better way to approach the power in my opinion is a regulatory process. that is something i got significantly diverted under speaker policy. it has been slow to come back . that is what is happening right now. we are working

people born on the wrong side of the tracks, absent father, lived in a bad neighborhood, ben carson has a story of this in detroit. but they overcame. and so the idea was that those people can do it, so can you. so we don't tell those stories anymore. we and the people. so we get less of it. >> would you say the republican party is that a doing a? >> incredibly bad. the biggest intervenors don't hear about it. and there are others who are coming along, marco rubio, paul ryan, others, they were kind of being channeled by him. and there was an individual that had been part of this when he attended the 1998 republican convention and it's probably true. it still seems like a mostly white older party. and so i think i've talked to a number of younger african-american leaders that say that you have to show up in between elections and you have to show that you really care. you really have to help people out of their misery and out of their poverty. i think that school choice is probably the best way to start doing that. but you have to spend in the neighborhood and republicans don't do that en
