The fact that a person the caliber of Ben Carson is having trouble competing in the political arena says a lot about the GOP talent pool this time around. Four years ago he might well have been Romney’s main challenger had he developed his current reputation by then.
But while I don’t agree with his position on guns, but anyone criticizing his character is saying a lot more about their own character than about his.
Absolutely.
Where on this thread, or any of the other Carson threads, have FReepers maligned Carson's character?
I've seen plenty of "he's a great surgeon, but.." comments, and it's the correct position to have.
He's not presidential material. We went through this crap with Herman Cain in 2012. Run for Congress or the Senate first before thinking about POTUS.
