Running a campaign and fundraising, and becoming a cult of personality are much different than being able to govern a nation.
We already have one "president" with no governmental experience, running a country. We don't need another.
Though I like what I know of Ben Carson, I wouldn't let him wire my house, or want him to pilot the jumbo jet I'm flying.
Cult of personality is fine when your an artist, musician or actor, it's unsuitable for positions requiring substance, knowledge and experience.
Carson is not ready for prime time.
How will he react when asked about guns and confronted with video of himself saying that people in urban areas shouldn’t have assault rifles?
He recently commented that Egypt could take the Palestinians but I doubt Egypt really wants a whole new radicalized trouble making population. Plus, I doubt the Palestinians want to leave. Let alone convincing Muzzies to give up the dome of the rock is a tough sell to say the least.
He would be better off helping raise money for 1 solid conservative candidate who has held elective office.
You are forgetting he has run a hospital has been the head of pediatric neurosurgery HARDLY an example of Obama who was a community
organizing communist!!!!!! He HAS run something he has a very calming
demeanor and I DO TRUST him to overturn OBAMMIECARE !!!! Is he a
conservative purist I do not know, but I WILL tell you one thing,
in healthcare and education HE IS!!!!!!!
Being a politician isn’t like wiring a house (something that I know how to do), it isn’t like flying a jumbo jet either. Being President revolves mostly around getting the right people involved and on your team something that Obama could never do because he’s on the wrong team and he has the wrong ideas. His problem is not and never has been a lack of experience with Washington DC. His problem is he is a left winger. What I’m waiting to see from Carson is what his ideas are and who he has on his team. I’m not stuck on any one candidate as of the moment but I’m certainly not of the mind that we need someone that is a member of the political class to be President. That runs entirely contrary the founding of this nation. The way things run today is not the way they are supposed to run. Carson’s success will be centered around his team. If he can build a good one he will be viable. The area in particular he needs to focus on is foreign policy. He knows health care. He’s got the social and fiscal issues right.
