I know you didn't write the article! Just what gave you the idea that I didn't? But the first thing the author (not you) jumped on was that he had offended homosexuals.
You think it's stupid to offend homosexuals?
And no, I am not calling for Carson to run for President, so can we please stop acting like I am? I'm simply astounded that a perversion that a couple decades ago was practically unmentionable is now so mainstream that any attack on it is "stupid!"
“Your qualified to be president as a matter of law and I am quite sure you would be better than the one we have.. Regardless of your self doubts”
OK you got me. But it’s not saying much since probably at least 200 million other people are legally qualified and would do a better job than Zero (or me). You will excuse me while I go start work on my inaugural address.
I don’t know WHY the author began with that gaffe and I’m not defending the author, nor Carson’s gaffe.
But it DOES show that Carson is incapable of thinking on his feet and is totally unprepared.
OTOH, a large portion of the article covers Caron’s latest dreadful answer, on more important topic.
What I believe is that Hewitt will go easy on RINOs.
Yes, I agree with that assessment.
Ordinarily a candidate not too well prepared in foreign affairs wouldn’t be a big deal were he or she strong in other areas, but this is going to be in large part a foreign affairs election, and I don’t think Dr. Carson, as much as I like him, can measure up as a prime contender - HHS Secretary sounds good for him.....
Same here. Wonderful man, but not experienced enough for Commander in Chief.
If a squish like Carson can’t handle an interview with a squish like Hewitt, he most definitely is doomed.
Exactly, potential candidate like Carson, Trump, Rice etc can be excellent in their own fields, but not seasoned enough to run a national campaign.
Usually presidents are people who in the past have run and won statewide campaigns in fairly large states. Anyone with out that on their resume is unlikely to be a good candidate for president.
Rand is a libtardtarian.
...his artless comments about the nature of homosexuality...Huh? His original comments were 100 percent correct -- where he jumped the shark was when he walked it back. He would not make a good POTUS, but I would expect him to at least be in the running for Surgeon General. Thanks Lurkinanloomin.
sorry, should have been specific, another poster was looking for your Rand Paul list
Walker has more of a chance than a lot of people give him credit for. AFAIK, he’s pretty careful about what he’s going to say.
6+ years on the job and Obama is still clearly not ready.
wrong again. I have disagreements with all candidates. I have clear determination of my positions and then I superimpose their positions. Fo example— on immigration Bush is finished with me.
I'm glad it's showing.
Although there’s no question his ideology alone places the inexperienced and unproven Dr. Carson head and shoulders above anyone the Dem party will nominate, that’s just not enough.
I mean, sure, if he’s elected, he could surround himself with great advisers. Or, not. Who knows? After 8 years of the Kenyan Marxist, we need someone ready to hit the ground running. Let’s not set ourselves up to wait around another 2 or 3 years while someone starts to learn how to govern.
He's a brilliant and excellent person but whenever he speaks I look over at my wife and say "he's just not a leader". Oh sure he can lead surgically.
"Grilling"? If Jeb will consent to give Hewitt an interview, it'll be 30 minutes or so of softballs and gentle lobs. But I err .... "softball" doesn't quite capture it. It'd be more like tee-ball, with Jebbie hitting every question over the fence.
Meanwhile, Carson's offending comments (oh, really?) about homosexuality are conveniently 404. Don't worry,pal, I'll find them anyway and decide for myself whether they were appropriate and well-informed.
Someone needs to grill up Hugh, I'm tired of his channeling the RiNO neural plexus and all their Chamber of Commerce dezinformatsiya about immigration.
