I try to just state facts as well and the fact is, Ben shouldn't have EVER even contemplated throwing his hat into the ring; he isn't qualified to be president!
No, Carson would be a disaster as president. And another thread tonight, he takes a terrible attitude toward Terri Schiavo, admitted he wasn't totally familiar with the case. Said people over-reacted or something like that. Cold. Medical people get hardened and lose their empathy, I hope not all.
There's no good place to mention this, so i'll work it in here. I've seen photos of Dr. Carson as a young surgeon. He was quite handsome (isn't now). But he has all that facial hair, saw a pic in scrubs with the facial hair. Why is that allowed in an operating room? Lotsa germs and bacteria can collect there and how do you scrub it up? Just wonder how he got away with it. Do the third worlders get away with that, too? Maybe it's racist to question it, I don't care. I think they wear those beards because they think it makes them look manly.
If Iowans are stupid enough to nominate him, I hope they will consider he probably doesn't have a snowballs chance of getting elected.
