Behinds Quote by Benjamin Carson
“I'm referring to anybody who is trying to interfere with the process of interfering with what the will of the people are. It is the people who should make the decision. And whoever that decision is, the establishment needs to get behind them and push them, not be going in a different direction, there is no way that can be a successful startegy no matter what you believe or who is the candidate.”
