Way back when he talked at the prayer breakfast a couple of years ago. >> 2013. >> and i think they weren't sure he could maybe get into the race and really have success. but now that they're seeing that, i think people are very gung ho about him, and i think donald trump, he might want to be careful to attack somebody so many people have a positive view of. >> yeah, brian, i was going to ask you, how should -- well, let me reverse it. if dr. carson is attacked by donald trump, how should carson handle that? >> he should fight back. i mean, it's amazing that we're going to have a debate tonigh...
