I'm also highly suspicious of these emails from "PAC's" using the Ben Carson name asking me for money when there hasn't been indication from him running. It goes right along all those "Gingrich Productions" emails and the talk about him running every four years.
A lot of the lesser knowns make money off running for office by pocketing the money in "consulting" without running an actual campaign.
And yes, I know Bush was a governor, but he still was in over his head.
