The imagery Carson is projecting is a little TOO familiar for me.
Carson's campaign relies heavily on the Internet to get his message across, more so than the campaigns of his 13 rivals. The campaign's Facebook page has more than 4 million followers, while Carson's Instagram account has 127,000.
One popular Facebook feature shows fans holding handwritten explanations of their support for Carson. Bennett says urging supporters to take more of those photos was his idea to drive voter engagement.
Starting this month, the campaign began using a computer program that lets one staffer answer up to 9,000 questions per day. Supporters will be able to text or email Carson a question and get an individual response. The program uses an algorithm that groups together questions that may look unique but are actually similar enough to elicit a single answer. Bennett says using the program was also his idea.
I think, if the algorithm works properly, that it is a very good idea.
Cue Kirk’s “Khaaaaaaaan!” gif.
I think he’s building his brand. He’s good for the Republican party as a reach out to minorities. His own success story is impressive.
But he’s a paper tiger. His supporters will go elsewhere when the voting time comes and RINOs are hoping it’ll be Jeb or Rubio. He’s being inflated now so he can be deflated later.
Carson’s “surge” is courtesy of crossover Democrats who will not be voting for the Republican in the general election.
Once they take out Trump, Carson will be easy to kneecap.
Running for President does help sell books. As I understand it, Carson pockets the money, Trump gives it away.
Typical liberal - thinks it's disturbing that republicans would support a patriotic, responsible, intelligent, and successful man without going into a swoon over his melanin. Carson is not my first or second choice, but I'd take him over a socialist or a lying tyrant wannabe.
I don’t know if his campaign is a con job, but I’ve never believed that he’s a serious candidate for the White House.
The bigger story to me, is who is behind the company that has been doing all the soliciting. I bet it’s someone we’d know of-a past repeater candidate.
It must be a horserace to the end so we keep coming back to the media trough.
does sound fishy, but on a side note, i read a few articles from this site.
what a left wing rag.
wow.
IMHO I don’t believe that Jeb is genuinely TRYING to win either.
The imagery Carson is projecting is a little TOO familiar for me.
It's not just his religion, but it has to do with his campaign manager that likes Farrakhan...there is more to this story than meets the eye...
I have wondered if he wasn't an ‘obuma’ plant... something there just doesn't feel right either...
And to go off his campaign to sell his books doesn't feel right either...some of his remarks are ‘tin hat’ at times...and there is just something physical about him that gives me a creepy feeling...
He's not what he is suppose to be and that is very evident...but I haven't put my finger on it just yet, but I do believe as the time gets closer, we will find out just what he is and it isn't going to be good...
Not Carson, but Trump could be playing everyone
I like Dr. Carson. I hope President Trump puts him to work fixing health care.

Small government
Carson is a great candidate. I am for trump but carson is solid. Judge these men by their enemies. I like ted too...marco...no.
Interesting
I don’t believe media anymore and there seems to be a lot of people thinking that way like “Construction man on Rush today” To change my opinion the candidate has to say something I disagree with.
