I agree “fine doctor” but I don’t see how that relates to great president. I don’t understand the fascination with him.

It’s simple. Not a politician.

Good for him.

I like having him in the race, I think it’s good for the country.

I don’t think he could be an effective President. I think the criminal politicos would eat him up and spit him out... or just have him shot.

You don’t really need to understand why. It just is. People are different; candidates are different and candidates attract supporters in multiple ways.

Carson is supposed to be the heavy-hitter. Funny, I can’t find a single person who gives half a crap about him or his campaign. I think Carson is benefitting from the media’s “Anybody But Trump” campaign. Even the dimmest MSM bulb knows that Jeb is flat-lining and can’t even get a dead-cat bounce from favorable media anymore.
