Even if he only keeps $2 million after fundraising expenses, it's really bad news for Bush and Rubio.

I don’t get where this money is coming from. Carson is a decent guy, but I don’t see how that translates into presidential material. The doctors I’ve known were ill suited for management.

Carson is The Cheap Labor Express’ secret weapon.

He’s for amnesty, which is Death To America.

Trump seems to be as close as it gets to a robust screening and repatriation program... people get antsy about the idea, talking about horrors like “ethnic cleansing” but on the other hand there IS such a thing as gratuitous dirtying — the problem not being the peoples per se but the attitudes brought along with them, which is something we do have a moral right to discriminate according to.

A lot may be faith based support, either from within his denomination or those who agree enough with it to give him the nod. Such a thing might go to Trump if he had an outspoken faith, which currently he does not. (Just going to a church doesn’t necessarily impress the potential faith based support.)

Carson has a leg up compared with some physicians in that he had to manage medical teams. But again this was for specific medical projects, not an ongoing basis as something like a hospital manager.

Carson might be a very good Surgeon General however.

What’s he even DOING in the race?
A white with his ‘qualifications’ would be laughed off the stage.
It’s got to be; ‘We’ll show the world once and for all we’re not bigots.

I have done a lot of research on Carson, NO I don't want him any where near the White House as President...

I don't want another ibuma, I want a strong leader that is only for America, and Americans, I don't want illegal immigrants in America, I want a wall, I want our Vets to be taken care of, I want, I want...yes I want America Great Again, a power house, on top of the world leaders not below them, that's why I'm 100% for Trump!!!
