text_A: Carson opposed the Vietnam War, and capital punishment, favored racial equality, and was against criminalizing extramarital sex and pornography. He avoided explicitly mentioning his views on "The Tonight Show," saying he "hates to be pinned down" as that would "hurt me as an entertainer, which is what I am." As he explained in 1970, "In my living room I would argue for liberalization of abortion laws, divorce laws, and there are times when I would like to express a view on the air. I would love to have taken on Billy Graham. But I'm on TV five nights a week; I have nothing to gain by it and everything to lose." He also seldom invited political figures onto the "Tonight Show" because he " wanted it to be comedy focused" and did not want the show used, by himself or others, to bore the viewers.
text_B: Did Carson use his Tonight Show star power to prevent most all politicians from appearing on his show?  Answer: Yes
YES.
