Ben Carson(National Harbor, MD)—When Dr. Ben Carson, the renowned former director of pediatric neurosurgery at Johns Hopkins, spoke recently at the Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC) in Washington, DC, he probably had no idea portions of his speech would continue to reverberate in the media for weeks to come.

Reports continue to cover some of the points Carson made in his speech, including the fact that he warned attendees of the insidious dangers of political correctness in America.

"It's time for people to stand up and proclaim what they believe and stop being bullied!" he said. "I'll let you know why I'm not a fan of political correctness. I hate political correctness [and] I will continue to defy the PC police who have tried in many cases to shut me up."

According to a report in The Christian Post, Carson said that someone in the media had once warned people against the "poison of his influence" and asked, "Would it be the poison of putting what God says in front of anything man says?"

Dr. Carson also reportedly announced a new black conservative magazine that will be launched next week. "It's going to be about how we use our collective intellect and our resources to move up the economic ladder—not on how to keep people down and keep a voting bloc—but how to rise up."
