Oddly enough, the ACU inviting “leading conservative voice” Chris Hayes to speak at CPAC failed to excite conservative activists. This is how it’s done.
Big news today — pleased to announce that Dr. Ben Carson will be a featured speaker at #CPAC2013! http://t.co/HQk9bvPjat #tcot
— CPAC (@CPAC) February 27, 2013
“Dr. Ben Carson represents the optimism and hope of the future of the conservative movement, while at the same time he articulates the deep fiscal and social challenges that our Nation faces,” said ACU Chairman Al Cardenas. “We look forward to welcoming Dr. Carson to the CPAC stage in March.”
Yes, please!
It's about time ACU announces some fresh blood to #CPAC2013 @RealBenCarson

Dr. Ben Carson is speaking at #CPAC2013. Basically will overshadow every other speaker. Haha. We extended an invite to #BlogBash already.
