As usual, Ben Carson, and the rest of the TeaParty & FoxNews idiots prove their complete ignorance of history.

The fascist Nazi Party’s rise to power was due to their reaction to the Weimar Republic’s progressive policies because of the effects of the Great Depression as well the financial strain of post-WWI reparations that Germany was forced to make.

Fast forward 70 years, and what political group is it that is extremely socially conservative, who repeatedly espouse “self-deportation” rhetoric toward non-white immigrants, and want to restrict basic rights of entire groups (whether it be racial or sexual orientation) of people who they consider to be “degenerate”? I wonder if Mr. Carson would be willing to make a side-by-side comparison with the number of outright white supremacists in his political movement versus any “progressive” organization.
Also, I don’t remember ANY progressive/liberal type who in the past 30+ years espoused the violent overthrow of our legally-elected government, not to mention numerous statements and images advocating the assassination of a sitting President - all of which happens on an almost-daily basis from the right-wingers.
