Ben Carson will serve on a selection committee to find Donald Trumps running mate, Trump told the New York Times on Wednesday.
The presumptive GOP presidential nominee said he plans to announce his vice presidential pick in July before the Republican National Convention in Cleveland.
Trump will soon announce a committee to handle the selection process, he said.
I think on the committee Ill have Dr. Ben Carson and some other folks, Trump said.
Carson, who ended his own presidential bid in March, is one of Trumps most outspoken campaign surrogates, frequently appearing on news shows to defend the candidate.
While Trump hasnt publicly discussed possible running mates, he told The New York Times in an article published Saturday that Ohio Gov. John Kasich, New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie and Florida Gov. Rick Scott were possible contenders.

Wonder if Carson will do a Cheney and say I looked around for a VP but couldn’t find anyone better than myself.
“Nobody would be crazy enough to attempt to assassinate Dubya then, Cheney was his life insurance policy.”
That’s why Obama selected Biden
Amen! Carson would be a disaster in the VP debate.
Sessions would be GREAT pick...except he’s too old to carry on for 8 more years after Trump.
If the right VP is chosen, we could have 16 years to begin undoing the damage of leftism/communism that is killing our Republic.
Yes. Trump is in he process of selecting the next Presidential 2020 candidate.
Yup. The same goes for Newt. It's too bad so many people don't think past the present.

Jeff Sessions has too much responsibility in the Senate to give it up.
He needs a fresh young new face. Not from “government service.”
A female spanish speaking successful private sector entrpeneur would be the nail in the coffin for Hillary and the dems.
Mr. Trump!! you may be inclined to make a choice of Rubio as your VP pick. Please, do NOT do this. Of any candidate Rubio would be the least likely any on your side of the street could be given the support. His betrayal cut deep and there are more than a few who could never forgive him for such blatant lies and betrayal. There is not enough Tea in China to make this little man any taller than he his.
Please, do not doubt this fact.
Way, way back Trump commented on the 14th Amendment and anchor babies. He thinks it should be revisited by Congress and not give citizenship to anchor babies. That would probably include Rubio.
Not a natural born citizen.
Yes. He is no more of a true NBC than Sen Ted. Neither is eligible for the ticket. I’ll give Sen Ted the fact that he MIGHT have attempted to pull the wool over our eyes. For Senor Rubio there is no such forgiveness. He lied, he lied, he lied. He will NEVER be forgiven for that black heart-ed betrayal.
Anchor babies are a sham. a piece of cloth full of feathers. Not that John K-Sick is such a great catch, but he, at least, is a NB American citizen....after all, his dad was a mail man. Would prefer Jeff Sessions or Newt for the position over either of the other two. LOL another 2 cents.
