own decisions. he plans in the next few days and the coming days he said in a statement to put out his own foreign policies. a problem he blames in part on the obama and clinton administrations. this is carson not only coming here to be seen as someone who knows more about the refugee crisis but somebody whose credentials are stronger and we ll see what the plan is in coming days, lynda. oren, in the past, he s made controversial comments about refugees. in particular, he compared some syrian refugees to rabid dogs. has he had a change of heart? reporter: well, based on his statement that he put out yesterday, certainly seems like it. he says it s a human tragedy. it seems like a carefully worded statement. he said the u.s. taking in 25,000 syrian refugees isn t enough. but instead of coming out and blatantly saying yes, the u.s. should take in more refugees. he s saying the u.s. should help countries like jordan that are taking in the syrian refugees.
