Ben Carson: ‘My Father Jor-El Sent Me To Earth From Kypton When I Was A Small Child’




“I had a tumultuous childhood and upbringing. There was a lot that I had to overcome significant obstacles to get to where I am today. For instance, my father Jor-El sent me to Earth from Kypton when I was a small child. That was very difficult for me. I had to leave my birth planet and come to a new place and try to fit in and thrive.

There was also a time when I worked a short while at a newspaper called the Daily Planet, and I thought who better to write for a paper called the Daily Planet than a man who came from a different one.

I also have great superpowers that I have to disguise so that I fit in among everyone else. I can’t let people know that I can fly or see through buildings. There will be those who would tear me down and see me as different if those abilities were to be revealed. All you have to know about me is that I love America, and since I love America I will make sure you all are loved.”

I agree with Barack Obama on this one, and the place I'm watching is Twitter. Real time representative sampling on any topic brings out the idiocy adequately for me. And there are some very humorous gems out there on this one.

if you have faith to begin with, or if you get the joke.
It must be true if Indiana Jones was interested in silos.
