Dr. Carson is a good, decent man and a brilliant surgeon (who has saved many, many lives).

I do not think anyone is denying that. But harboring bizarre and illogical thoughts about reality are not good pre-qualifications for President.

You do know, do you not, that the pyramids are mostly solid with only small chambers with very difficult access.

I doubt that enough grain could be stuffed into these tiny chambers to supply ancient Egypt for more than a couple days, if that.

If someone needs brain surgery, he’s the man for the job. If they need country surgery he isn’t. Thats all there is to it.

This whole topic goes to a theory I’ve mentioned (and got flamed for ) many times here on FR.

When did it occur that the US President MUST be the supreme learned, don’t of all knowledge? North Korea much?

This all-knowing, seek the wisdom/comment of our Dear Leader mentality gets police officers vilified; clock boys invited to the White House; and a FLOTUS who suddenly is a childhood nutrition expert ruining school lunches.

What the Country needs is a leader, who leads by surrounding themselves with people he (using the qualities that the electorate recognized that got him elected) he trusts as learned on the topic/crisis at hand.

This is such a non-starter. Expertise in Egyptology has NOTHING to do with being President of the United States in 2017. Carson IS however versed, and morally/religiously strong enough to call out both ISIS (note he NEVER refers to them as ISIL to implicate Israel as our current “all knowing” President insists) and the Islam invasion of the West.

The former lack of pyramid building knowledge is acceptable—the calling out of our enemies is NEEDED!
