I would wholeheartedly be in favor of a Trump/Carson ticket. Completely agree with the article.

Unlike most in the Democratic Party, this would be a black man who actually has the credentials.

There’s a much better case for trusting in the goodness of God rather than trusting in the goodness of man.

Any day.

I’d like him to return to the cabinet in perhaps another role. Perhaps Education.

I wonder if Dr. Carson has thick enough skin for all that the left will throw at him for daring to be Trump’s VP? Look at how much the left has punished everyone who worked under Trump but didn’t betray him.

Modern politics tends to run off anyone who is decent, race got nothin’ to do with it.

As far as candidates who “should” run, it’s complicated. I recall discussing this back in the 1990s. The folks I talked to allowed that being educated is “acting White”. The narrative hadn’t shifted (by White *leftists*) to “White supremacy” but the bias certainly was there. Dressing, speaking, living by certain customs, that was viewed as inauthentic, etc. Not cool.

It’s interesting, I guess, to see the changes in the messaging. In the 1960s the popular refrain was “We want Jobs”, and barriers to education and training. The Democratic party was all about the Working Man back in the day. Wages, living conditions. Union support was huge with the rank and file.

They don’t seem to care about any of that now. I remember reading Richard Trumka head of the AFL-CIO saying millions of illegals pouring across the border for decades didn’t bother him. Both parties are pretty much batshit crazy these days, the Democrats for a abandoning their principles, and the Republicans for offering no pushback. In the modern media sphere, unless they were very careful, Dr. Carson would get roasted on a spit 24/7; Nobody wants to be subject to that. Conservative Minorities Are Not Allowed, you see.

No.

Dr. Ben Carson. A Bible reading Christian, Protestant, Seventh day Adventist Neurosurgeon who pioneered the seperation of twins conjoined at the head.

Can’t be all that bad.......

I don’t want Carson as VP, but have no problem with Ben as a member of Trump’s 2nd administration.

He served honorable in the first & can in the second.

I feel like I’m reading a thread about why Mike Johnson would be a great speaker.

Nothing would please me more than if we had a black president (Ben Carson) and a black pope (Cardinal Sarah) in 2029.

Carson is an exemplary figure in both professional and private life, but a 79 year old candidate is not helped by a 73 year old veep. We’re starting to look like the USSR before Gorby or like Maoist China.

Dr. Carson would be a positive with little risk. Hope it happens.

Carson strength is also his weakness. He is TOO NICE a guy.

We need a fire breather willing to exterminate the cockroaches in the democrat party. Lieutenant Colonel Allen West would fit that description perfectly.

Carson wouldn’t be bad. tho i’m unsure if he’s a real fighter. definitely want him on the team but Trump needs someone else by his side leading the charge.

there are a few good fighters out there...

katie lake is definitely a fighter.
josh hawley... love watching him tear up people’s bs.
jim jordan would prolly be in the same boat as hawley.
(former judge) laurel lee would also be great... and she knows the laws need to be enforced properly.

and, of course, MTG just because she’d be like a pitbull given the chance.
