Letter: Christians need Ben Carson in race

Dr. Ben Carson, America needs you.

Please put your hat back in the ring, so that we have a choice. Please pray about this. This is urgent, for our nation. Right now our choices are not even choices for Christians.

Why do we send our kids to school? To get an education. Why do we want them to get an education? For their future. How in the world can we give them a future without God?

Please pray for guidance and wisdom. If you don’t throw your hat back in the ring, who will Christians vote for? It doesn’t matter that you missed the debates.

Whenever somebody asks you what you’re going to do about anything, you just tell them the truth — that you don’t know what you are going do until it happens. At that time, you’ll seek God’s guidance and then you’ll know what to do. Your opponents don’t know what they are going do until it happens either, but they will get their directions from the polls, if not the highest bidder.

So please, please, pray about it, if for no other reason than to let me vote for a running candidate and not a write-in.
