I thought Ben Carson should resign over Trump's pro slavery remarks until I realized he thought it was a benign institution.

Deplorabilism is a mental illness. It should be in the DSM V.

1. Contrast this with Palin and her confusion over Paul Revere.

In that instance it was ignorance of conventional history taught in Elementary School followed by strange projection. That the Civil War was about slavery and slavery was an issue that could be settled at the time is another historical convention taught in Elementary School. Somehow these became twisted for Sarah Palin (re Paul Revere) and Donald Trump (antebellum Slavery) I question their knowledge base. Administration of the Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale would be of benefit to future generations. I am certain David Wechsler would have been fascinated by these statements from contemporary politicians. (I do consider Donald Trump a politician with cognitive problems in the same category of Sarah Palin)
Include Carson and his pyramids in the mix

6. in the case of Ben Carson he purposely does it as a way to appeal to white racists

He knows what he needs to do to get support within his own party.
