A new NBC/Wall Street Journal poll released Sunday shows Carson with 20% support among Republican primary voters nationally, just 1 point below Trump.
Former Hewlett-Packard CEO Carly Fiorina and Sen. Marco Rubio (R-Florida) tied for third in the poll, both grabbing 11%, while former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush's (R) support sunk to 7%.

The media keeps Dr Carson’s agenda on amnesty to illegals well hidden. I am a legal immigrant myself, and no way in heck will I ever support any candidate with amnesty to illegals agenda. Illegals must go back, and get in line to become legal.
The important point is that support is strong for folks previously outside the political system.
Trump swears to repeal and replace Obamacare about three minutes into this interview of August 12 with Lou Dobbs. Sounds good ... until you listen carefully and learn that Trump wants to replace it with "something better."
"It can be a great form of insurance and much less money," Trump concludes in this interview.
What IT is ... is Obamacare done Trump Style. IT is still going to be there. That is why Obamacare is not a main campaign issue for Trump. He's on board with the concept and ready to tweak it "right" Trump-style. The unconstitutional tyranny of the concept itself is unchallenged. Therefore, drive to repeal it will be weak.
Cruz says: "I promise you that if you do not campaign on repealing Obamacare, you ain't gonna repeal Obamacare."
Please see and hear 6 minutes into this speech to the Heritage Foundation from Ted Cruz where he talks about Obamacare.
It's a make-or-break issue for this conservative voter, entropy. I refuse to vote for a president who will go along with the premise or concept of Obamacare. Cruz recognizes the sheer betrayal of the Constitution that it is. He is the only candidate who does, and the only candidate who earns my vote. Voting is a one-way street, only in the direction "for."
hahaha the goal obviously is to make Trump look like he is fading fast. They are afraid of Trump in the general. Not so much of Carson, FioRino or Rubio.
the only R’s that seem to have lots of support among everyone we know and meet are Trump (”because he has the style to win”) and Cruz (”because he’s right on most of the major issues”).
your experience may vary
Half of them are probably in West Palm Beach where they are still pissed at the Donald for not doling them out lots of cash for their charity soirees en blanc.
I agree.
My personal healthcare experience has changed my views on healthcare for American citizens. Please take a peek at my profile. I have explained why I changed on healthcare. But I have no problem if you believe otherwise.
Only robots agree 100% on all issues. I can support any candidate with whom I agree 75% plus.
Trump/Cruz 2016!
Highly synergistic ticket!!
What’s the point of such a small sample with such a high margin of error?
He’s in it for the long haul.
I truly believe that.
It’s a day ending in Y so there must be a new story about the demise of DJT
MSM pollsters hire moonlighting global warming scientists to crunch the poll numbers.
Maybe Waaah Street PMSNBC can run a poll showing Trump at 0%. ...They would if they think it would be believed.
If Trump is destroyed, the Washington DC cabal will stay in power for another 50 years minimum. Pray America is waking.
Partisan Media Shills Alert!
lol but now they call it “climate change” because they froze their butts during winters. Similarly Carson’s rise translates into Trump fading.
Murdoch is a Globalist and a foreigner and Fox News is co-owned with the Saudi Royal family and NBC is owned by foreigners ?
They want Open borders and own multiple news outlets to spread all the misinformation they can.
Last week on Sunday ,All We heard about on our trip home on the car radio
News flashes from multiple sources such CBS, Fox,ABC, Salem was about the single CNN poll showing Trump had dropped one point !
They were celebrating.
My son is young but was blown away and he finally realized how the US Corporate media runs coordinated attacks on their Enemy ! If a 10 year sitting in the back seat can figure it then its way over the top.
And this week Rove has his NBC -Wsj poll which has more Dems than so called gop voters in it to spread same big lie ‘momentum ‘ message !
Trump has plateaued and should begin the decent soon.
When that happens it will be like a snowball rolling down a hill because Trump will have no clue how to handle adversity and falling poll numbers.
I suspect if he believes that he can continue to get more mileage in the next debate by calling the other candidates idiots and disasters and continue with his two legged stool foreign policy, 1.) “I will talk to Putin”, 2.)”I don’t want to reveal my strategy to my enemies”, than the free fall post debate should commence nicely.
There are no signs that Trump is anymore conservative than Shillary. There are no signs that he has a clue about foreign policy. There are no signs that he has the capability to do anything other than hammer the establishment and yet this is apparently what is enough these days to some.
If they could concoct a poll showing Trump at 0%, there will be ticker tape parades in all big cities, with Bush & Hillary leading arm in arm, with Fiorino, Rubio, Paul, Graham, Perry & Jindal right behind, singing Hallelujah.
They wish Trump was losing.
