Retired physician Ben Carson told a Florida television station on Sunday that he is running for the 2016 Republican presidential nomination.
"I'm willing to be part of the equation and, therefore, I'm announcing my candidacy for president of the United States of America," Carson said in an interview with CBS affiliate WPEC-TV in West Palm Beach, Florida.

Won’t it be confusing once Ben Carson gets into the race? Arson and Carson?
Actually, that’s got a ring to it.

I don’t see him winning but I do think he’s good for the race and for the eventual nominee to pick as education secretary or surgeon general.

He’s a good man and a great role model but the political system will grind him up.

They need to limit debate participation to a certain percentage in the polls. This is getting ridiculous.

He’d like to torch the Second Amendment.

I'm not sending money to Carson. I sure am to Cruz.
I expect more out of Cruz than Carson.

"They need to limit debate participation to a certain percentage in the polls. This is getting ridiculous." Agreed. All of these also-rans will eat up the debate time, and Ted Cruz, a brilliant debater, will end up with two questions.

Great. How many more “conservatives” will jump out of the clown car to split the vote and make sure a liberal gets the nomination?

Ben, I love ya. But even Hillary Clinton ran for a stepping-stone office before deciding she was going to be president. Even if you were somehow electable, your lack of a political background means you will either be disastrously incompetent, or will have to rely MORE on insiders rather than LESS on them for the requisite expertise.
Look at it this way: Would you want a surgeon who had never practiced medicine to do your hip replacement?
