I like Carson. I am suspicious of a poll that puts Bush first and is missing Cruz. They are not polling Republicans then. It doesn’t matter what Democrats think.
Saying 10% among a gazilion candidates is a lead is ... absurd.
Today’s polls are meaningless.
Stupid poll tricks.
They should have only declared candidates included.
Ben Carson for ... President??? Are you kidding me?
A nice guy for sure but not even close to being qualified to be the next President of the United States. I’m afraid the Carson Ego is growing faster than the national debt.
Do us all a favor Ben and call it off.
I just don’t see it. Makes no sense. Its like electing Mister Rogers president. Another fine example that Republicans are the stupid party.
Agree. Completely pointless and an exercise in futility at this point in time. There’s a long way to go before the polls become anything close to being meaningful.

Agreed. This is the same old garbage.
Bush and Carson? I don’t think so. Trump would do better than either one of them. Walker and Cruz should really be at the top.
Bush, Huckabee and Rubio are non-starters, if nominated, designated losers. All of them want to surrender the rule of law and the country to fraudulently documented foreigners.
Carson is a brilliant man, but not for President.
Cruz to victory or get Bushed!
You're observation is accurate.
Many of the "so called" polls are a combination ad and trial balloon.
The MSM and RINOs are both working overtime to IGNORE Ted Cruz because he would annihilate LIBERAL progress as well as disrupt Washington's "business as usual" scam.
These polls are absolute nonsense.
Serious people should recognize that they are not accurate, and often purposely misleading.
The GOP-E needs all the candidates it can get to stay in through the Super Tuesday primaries, which are all proportional representation. Then the winner-take-all primaries will seal the deal for Jeb or whoever the designee is.
Dr. Carson’s lack of understanding of the U. S. Constitution disqualifies him from high office. I am still appalled at what he said about the Second Amendment. And he allowed himself to be intimidated by the gaystapo.
“The MSM and RINOs are both working overtime to IGNORE Ted Cruz because he would annihilate LIBERAL progress as well as disrupt Washington’s “business as usual” scam. “
How does one “work overtime to ignore?” He is merely one of (too) many candidates.
They have so many candidates to cover, they are spread around very thinly.
Straw pole at Thursdays county Republican meeting had Cruz at top with 16 votes, Walker second with 10 and Carson had either 0 votes or 1 vote.
I like Carson, but he has no chance. The mediawhores will destroy him. They can’t afford to allow a self-made conservative black man to rise without quotas and affirmative action.
“They are not polling Republicans then. It doesn’t matter what Democrats think.”
Republicans, in their wisdom, allow open primaries in some critical states.
Despite the media ignoring Ben Carson, we still know two important things about him.
First, he’s spent decades successfully performing brain surgery on children, which requires brilliance, character, and courage; and, second, he’s been able to win Republican presidential polls despite a lack of media attention, which requires an extraordinary ability to get the Conservative message across to audiences.
What more can Conservatives ask for in a presidential candidate or president than brilliance, courage, character, and exceptional communication skills?
