It is not going to happen, and could we knock of this “we need a black, We need a woman, we need a hispanic” BS.

Carson is a fine fellow, but he has no desire to run, and he sure doesn’t want to run as a token.

It is BS, or worse. If the best available candidate is Black or hispanic should he be rejected on that basis? I don't think so.

I agree that Dr. Carson would have no interest in running as a "token;" I would have no interest in having him run if he did. We just got through four years of that with President Obama and have nearly four more years to go with him. That's more than sufficient, thank you very much.

I like Carson too but he’s not presidential material.

He might be OK in the senate if we got a promise that he wouldn’t legislate his own desires over what the people want like gun control.

Thank you. Some of us hyperventilate at the first glimpse of a Republican who happens to be black, Hispanic, etc., and start chattering about “our next president.” How did that work out with Rubio?

Besides, I lost track of how many times Carson apologized for his remark about homosexuals. For God’s sake, we need someone with a spine.
