(TRUNEWS) – Dr. Ben Carson will not be participating in the upcoming GOP Debate in Detroit, Michigan. In a statement released by the campaign on Wednesday:
I have decided not to attend the Fox News GOP Presidential Debate tomorrow night in Detroit. Even though I will not be in my hometown of Detroit on Thursday, I remain deeply committed to my home nation, America. I do not see a political path forward in light of last evening’s Super Tuesday primary results. However, this grassroots movement on behalf of “We the People” will continue. Along with millions of patriots who have supported my campaign for President, I remain committed to Saving America for Future Generations. We must not depart from our goals to restore what God and our Founders intended for this exceptional nation.
The Republican presidential candidate, who has yet to win a state in the race for the White House, told supporters Monday evening in Baltimore that he is not ready to quit.
“As I have had an opportunity to really study our system, it has become a little bit discouraging seeing all the relationships that exist there. It is rotten. It is rotten to the core,” Carson said. “They have weaved such a complex web, it will be very very difficult to untangle it, but I am not ready to quit trying to untangle it yet,” he said.

Despite the announcement, Carson is not suspending his campaign. The candidate will be making an announcement regarding his political future at a conservative event in Maryland on Friday.
Dr. Carson is a prolific writer and author, having published eight books, including his autobiography,Gifted Hands, and two titles that were New York Times Bestsellers, America the Beautiful, Rediscovering What Made This Nation Great, and One Nation, What We All Can Do to Save America’s Future, which was on the New York Times Best Sellers List for twenty weeks, five of those weeks at #1. Gifted Hands was the subject of the award-winning, made-for-television movie under the same title as the book in which Cuba Gooding, Jr., played Dr. Carson in the leading role.
