With all the debate and polls on who should be Trumps VP, real life circumstances points out where Trump will need help the most and who could help him the most. And that is Dr Ben Carson. The Balkanization of America is its greatest threat.
Dr Carson is the only candidate who has shown the ability to lower the hostility between individuals and with different racial and cultural groups. The country is divided and to be any where successful Trump will need help uniting people.
Anybody can guide him with the inner workings of government but only a high profile person like a Vice President has the status to garner the attention needed for large amounts of people.
Mr Trump I have found your first instinct is usually the correct one. Dr Carson is your man.
Ridiculous....He knows zip about the workings of government.
Oh please.
Because you think the media is going to see his skin and recoil in confusion as to how they are going to continue to attack either of them?
Sentimentality over substance is NOT how to go about this.
Uh, how about a big resounding NO! VA admin or something. Maybe Surgeon Lt.Col.
I like Dr. Carson, just don’t know if he’s got the temperament for the job of VP.
I can see him having a place at the table - absolutely - but VP, not so sure. But it’s not up to me, so not my call.
Slow Ben won’t cut it. Put him in charge of HHS.
Newt as his Chief of Staff, Christy as his AG.
Donald needs someone with a VJJ, unfortunately.
Ben is probably one of THE worst choices you could come up with. He has NEVER run for nor held an elective office. He puts everyone to sleep, he's a stinking/GOD awful debater, knows NOTHING at all outside of medicine, and HELL NO...he would NOT attract black voters!
He may or may not be a "nice man", I don't know, I don't know him. What I DO know, unlike you, is politics.
You are a pandering jackass.
Anybody who thinks the pyramids were grain silos isn’t safe to put in the WH. Nice guy but....
He could be very helpful in charge of Health and Human Services where he has experience in the issues that are dealt with in that depoartment.
NO. Stupid reasoning.
I think it’s more likely that he’d pick him than Newt or Christie.
In before the “he’s a good man” puppets.
No
Go pander some where else
What a colossal fail that pick would be.
I think Carson would be a great choice.
The most attractive element about him is, that he has what Washington, D.C. calls, ‘no experience’.
Noooooooooooooo way!
Surgeon General? Yes.
VP? No No No No No No No (repeat 100x)
Do you want Carson to bring along his friends, The ‘Reverend’ Al Sharpton and The ‘Minister’ Farakhan with him?
