Carson would make a good cabinet member, Secretary of Health and Human Services.

Agree look at mess R leaders have gotten us into. We need a good cleaning of all elected in USA! We need to turn leadership over to the young. They could not do any worse than what these have done to USA. If they have been in office more than 2 term they need to be sent home for good. Its voter job to do it and we need it done now or R country is gone. Most if not all have been in office all there lives and it was not meant to be that way. And 98% in US Congress need to go home for good. And 98% of elected in any office R self serving people not for US Citizens or USA!

Would he use that position to promote magic, cancer-curing vitamins?

As Cabinet Secretary you are NOT ALLOWED by law to advocate or support any commercial product.

Did you buy some vitamins from him that you are not happy with?

I know he's staunch pro-life, but that may not be good enough for some perfectionist.

Probably not? You mean Rush has some doubts about it?

Yes, I think so. He’s hedging his bets just in case he might be wrong.

Nope. I'm not silly/stupid enough to believe his claims about the magic-fairy-unicorn vitamins he hawks to unsuspecting people.

Unless Carson has just been playing with us all along I don't see how anyone can not conclude that he's just not ready for the job.

Rush is right. Ben Carson may be a helluva guy, but he has shown he is not qualified to be President, and may I dare say serve in a cabinet. A presidential candidate should be judged in multiple ways, does he have the right positions, is he competent enough to run the government, does he have what it takes (charisma, etc) to win the general election. Carson falls short in the last two. I refuse to engage in self delusion, I have to admit what is staring me in the face. I will say it, even if nobody else will. Carson is to some conservatives the magic minority they have been searching for, like Herman Cain. It doesn’t matter if they are qualified, they have the right hue, so they can point to him and say, SEE. It is the “some of my friends are black” kind of thing. Again, nice guy, but not even close to being qualified. If I have a brain tumor, I give him a call, but not if I need a President.

I did not see the interview, but if this report is accurate, it shows Rush’s wisdom. He is correct, and he also stated the even with some doubts about whether Carson is ready to be POTUS, he would still be a better candidate than Hillary.

In the end - any one of the Republican candidates would be better than Hillary for POTUS.
