Americans have “allowed themselves to be manipulated into believing they’re enemies,” Housing and Urban Development Secretary Dr. Ben Carson said, per ABC News.

He made the statement in response to the divide exposed by sometimes violent – and deadly – protests spotlighted last month in Charlottesville, Virginia.

I think a lot of the Americans that get caught up in this are decent people but they’ve allowed themselves to be manipulated into believing that they’re enemies and that they should hate each other,” Carson said, “and that they should try to destroy each other, and this is exactly the wrong thing.”

Carson made the statement to ABC News’ Powerhouse Politics Podcast.

I’m glad to see the president reaching out to the other side,” said the HUD Secretary, referring to Democratic leaders.

Like an Echo of Rev Donald Tye’s Statement on Division

RevDonaldTyeJrManufacturedHousingAdvocateDailyBusinessNewsMHProNewsManufactured housing advocate, the Rev. Donald Tye, Jr., has spoken of the tactic of “divide and rule,” how the political “powers that be” manipulate millions.

Tye was instrumental in crafting a message of hope and healing post-Charlottesville, geared to unite people, based upon “eternal principles.”  That message is linked here.

Carson Points to Post Hurricane Unity

Because the fact of the matter is: we’re all in the same boat and if part of the boat sinks, the rest of us are going down, too,” Carson said. “We need to start thinking more about the things that benefit all of us and get away from this partisanship,” he added.

The HUD Secretary noted that people in the affected areas of Harvey came together, regardless of background, or political beliefs.

HUD Programs Aid Recovery

ABC noted that HUD’s mortgage, rehabilitation insurance programs will be available to those affected.

Carson was warmly welcomed to his role at HUD by both the Manufactured Housing Association for Regulatory Reform (MHARR) and the Manufactured Housing Institute (MHI).  As most industry veterans know, manufactured homes have as their primary regulator the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). ## (News, analysis.)
