While he would make a great Surgeon General I don’t think he would make a good president
The Surgeon General has little clout in public policy. Carson ought to be appointed as a counter-czar to bring the AMA and other medical organizations into sync with our founding principles, beginning with LIFE. De-license abortionists from medical practice while barring their proponents from the levers of self-government. The entire medical community needs an overhaul in terms of ethical and legal standards. Take the Hippocratic Oath, refine it, and make every practitioner of medicine not only swear to it, but be held accountable to it.
