Our conversation with Dr. Ben Carson on America's Roundtable focuses on the American Founding, affirming the significance of the U.S. Constitution, and the launch of American Cornerstone Institute's Little Patriots' online educational program - which engages parents, grandparents and educators: https://www.littlepatriotslearning.com/

We also address:

— Critical Race Theory (CRT) and corporate wokeism.

— The U.S. economy, inflation, and importance of fiscal responsibility.

— The principled policies and reforms advanced by Dr. Carson at the U.S. Department of Housing Urban Development , including the successful Opportunity Zones. Dr. Carson will provide details on the tax incentives involved in the development programs. According to published reports, the former Cabinet official stated that Opportunity Zones attracted $75 billion within the first two years and was projected to lift a 500,000 Americans out of poverty. The original goal of the program was to attract $100 billion within a 10-year period.

The Wall Street Journal | Op-Ed: America Needs a Safety Net, Not a Hammock

Congressional Democrats want to decouple welfare from work, undermining the American work ethic.

"Americans want to help those who can’t help themselves, or who are going through a rough patch. They don’t want to support healthy adults and allow them to live off government welfare programs permanently. Americans believe in the safety net, not the safety hammock."
— Dr. Ben Carson

Bio:

Dr. Benjamin S. Carson, Sr., M.D., is Founder and Chairman of the American Cornerstone Institute, a new think tank / do tank whose mission is to promote the 4 founding principles which are cornerstones of our country: faith, liberty, community and life as well as pursue common sense solutions that challenge conventional groupthink.

He most recently served as the 17th Secretary of the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development.

For nearly 30 years, Secretary Carson served as Director of Pediatric Neurosurgery at the Johns Hopkins Children's Center, a position he assumed when he was just 33 years old, becoming the youngest major division director in the hospital's history. In 1987, he successfully performed the first separation of craniopagus twins conjoined at the back of the head. He also performed the first fully successful separation of type-2 vertical craniopagus twins in 1997 in South Africa.

Dr. Carson received dozens of honors and awards in recognition of his achievements including the Presidential Medal of Freedom, the nation's highest civilian honor. He is also a recipient of the Spingarn Medal, the highest honor bestowed by the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP) and has been awarded over 70 honorary doctorate degrees. Dr. Carson authored nine books, four of which he co-wrote with his wife Candy. The U.S. News Media Group and Harvard's Center for Public Leadership named him among "America's Best Leaders" in 2008.

Dr. Carson and his wife co-founded the Carson Scholars Fund, which recognizes young people of all backgrounds for exceptional academic and humanitarian accomplishments. The Fund is currently operating in 50 states and the District of Columbia, and this year is celebrating the 25th anniversary of the first awards ceremony. In honor of that, the organization has now awarded a total of more than 10,000 scholars, as well as more than $8 million in scholarships. Before the end of this year the Carson Scholars will have installed more than 250 Ben Carson Reading Rooms around the country.

Born in Detroit to a single mother with a 3rd grade education who worked multiple jobs to support their family, Secretary Carson was raised to love reading and education. He graduated from Yale University and earned his M.D. from the University of Michigan Medical School. He and his wife are the proud parents of three adult sons and six grandchildren.

Statements on the book "Liberal Privilege" —

“In his latest book, Liberal Privilege, Donald Trump Jr. reveals how Joe Biden used the government to enrich his family. A must-read for anyone who wants to learn about the inner workings of the swamp!” — US Senator Paul Rand

“Turning the tables on Joe Biden, exposing his radical associations and his family’s self-dealing, Don Trump Jr. provides searing insights and critical information for Americans who still believe we deserve a leader who puts America first.” — Laura Ingraham, Host, Fox News Channel's 'The Ingraham Angle'

The conversation also highlights the importance of focusing on the science and real data from around the world when addressing the concerns about the coronavirus pandemic which originated in Wuhan, China. Dr. Carson brings to the table his experiences as a medical professional, a longtime Director of Pediatric Neurosurgery at the Johns Hopkins Hospital, a position which he held since the age of 33.

Dr. Ben Carson presents ideas and solutions, emphasizing the guidelines provided by the administration and best practices outlined in order to safely reopen schools across America. Over 50 million students from K-12 grade have been impacted by the disruption caused by the coronavirus pandemic. Greater concerns are raised as some states and school districts are pushing back on safely reopening schools. While virtual education may help a certain group of students, these efforts may further marginalize the over 43% of children from lower income families lacking access to digital devices and the 15% of U.S. households with school-age children who do not have a high-speed internet connection at home. Schools insisting on virtual education are ignoring the digital divide. This may adversely affect low-income families and specifically children from the Black, Hispanic and rural areas.

— The Opportunity Zones incentive, created by the 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, was designed to spur economic development and job creation by encouraging long-term investments in low-income communities nationwide. Nearly 35 million Americans live in the more than 8,700 Opportunity Zones across the country.

—The Secretary was just in Charleston, SC for an Opportunity Zone focused event with Senator Scott to discuss a new rule from the Treasury to drive more capital in underserved communities.

—273 action items have been completed by the White House Opportunity and Revitalization Council as of the end of April. This list is available at OpportunityZones.gov. Each of these action items helps further the Council’s mission of complementing private Qualified Opportunity Fund investment.

—The rate of infection among younger schoolchildren and from students to teachers has been low, especially if proper precautions are followed. There have also been few reports of children being the primary source of COVID-19 transmission among family members. That’s where the data currently stands.
