Finally we have a GOP presidential candidate, Dr. Ben Carson, that realizes the Liberal Media is our enemy and He will not play their game. Actually Donald Trump was probably the first candidate to stand up to them and he deserves a lot of credit for that. The Press is supposed to be a part of a system of checks and balances but from Goldwater to the present the mainstream media has been a tool of Liberal Democrats. I think the worm is turning.
The whole press thing has been used by Republicans for applause lines for years. This is nothing new.
If any worm is turning it is only turning within Republican circles. The rest of us realize that while traditional politicians have been vetted over quite a few years as they ran for a variety offices, here we have Ben Carson who has never run for public office and has to be vetted in a truly compact period of time.
Believe it or not, there has always been some question as to what the pyramids were used for. There has never been found any trace or remains of a mummified person in one, even one with no evidence of being looted. The interiors of the pyramids were never decorated, even in the slightest way. No self respecting pharaoh especially one that would have built such a massive structure for himself would have completed it without the interior being elaborately painted with pictures and writings of his life. Contrast this with the tomb of Tutankhamen, and other Pharaohs that were later buried in the valley of the kings.
uh huh …
The burial chamber in the Pyramid of Cheops has a SARCOPHAGUS … I suppose the ancient Egyptians used store yogurt in that one … ???
When I was a boy, I lived next to a neighbor who was absolutely brilliant in terms of electronics...way ahead of his time. He and his family lived in an unfinished barn for many years.
Brilliance and common sense are two very different things!

A SARCOPHAGUS is not human remains. It's a BIG STONE BOX with no evidence it ever held a body in it. Boy, the liberals are coming out of their holes, in all their wonderful glory. Perhaps you've been having too much of that 4000 year old yogurt.

Carson said it was his own theory, nothing backed by science, lol.
1. Pyramids aren't hollow: They're incredibly solid and usually only contain a few claustrophobic chambers, connected by long, sloping pathways and concealed entrances, in order to confuse potential tomb raiders. Not a very efficient place to store grain.
2. Ancient Egyptians left instructions inside the pyramids: Archaeologists have found funerary text inscriptions inside pyramid chambers built between 2375 and 2160 BCE, which serve the sole purpose of instructing the dead pharaoh's soul how to cross over to the afterworld. That would be a strange thing to put inside a granary.
3. There's evidence of burial inside the pyramids: "Pyramids were definitely used as tombs: burial equipment, such as sarcophagi, jewellery, mummies or mummy parts were found in some of them. (The others were robbed in antiquity, or in a few cases the burial chambers are below the water table)," archaeologist Deborah Sweeney from Tel Aviv University in Israel told Jewish news site Haaretz over email.
4. There are lots of different pyramids, built over thousands of years: There are more than 100 pyramids known in Egypt, and they were built anywhere between 2686 and 1750 BCE. South of Egypt, in Sudan, there are around 255 of the structures. All the ones studied appear to have served as tombs.
5. Ancient Egyptians actually had granaries: And they've been studied by archaeologists. "These were normally dome-shaped buildings open at the top, which stood near houses and government buildings," said Sweeney.
6. The only grain found in pyramids is part of a burial ritual: To be fair, there have been a few odd remains of grain found in pyramids by archaeologists, but this is part of an Egyptian burial ritual known as the Osiris bed, as the Tour Egypt site explains:
"These are wooden trays in the form of the god, Osiris, which were planted with seeds of grain. They were expected to germinate once the tomb was sealed, and were symbolic of the continuation of life after death."

I hope either Trump or Carson ends up as the GOP nominee … with Jesse Ventura as VP candidate ...
Hell, I wish Jesse Ventura would run for president--it would be a fresh change from the run of the mill bull crap we facing today. Unfortunately, it will come down to Hillary & Bush, the powers that be will not allow anything else.

I doubt Bush will be in it at this point which I'm glad of. As far as Hillary, can you imagine a President that has the gall to lie right to a family members face about the reason he died and then tells him she's going to get that man who made the video? She's one very sad candidate when she can't cover up her lies anymore and she's exposed for what she really is.
When all else fails blame the liberal media. We seem to live in a time where critical thinking and actual knowledge of events is a thing of the past.
