Wy Trump should pick Ben Carson for VP

Posted on 05/12/2016 7:29:01 PM PDT by MagillaX

After review of the candidates I am back to my original thought that Dr Ben Carson would be best for VP.

My initial thought the best selection would be Rubio but after his latest tantrum when he was excluded from the VP selection confirms he is not ready for the big show.

I still love the Trump and Christie stage presence but I am not yet convinced it will help gain votes.

I know some people still want a women but introducing a new face brings in the unknown and pushes Melania off the stage.

And there is Trump and my take is he wants someone he can work with, get along with, and trust.

He said he wanted a go between for congress interestingly enough Dr Carson is being given the chance of working with Paul Ryan.

And even though when Trump and Carson are together you can see the personality contrast, but when Dr Carson is on his own talking Trump he is a very good advocate for Trump.

Dr Carson has a unique way of disarming his opponents and softening their tone.

I can see it know Vice President Carson holds his weekly fireside counseling session for a dysfunctional America.

Sorry, no sale! Trump will pick Newt Gingrich because he needs someone who knows how the Legislative Branch works. Carson has a place, but not as VP.

I am myself for Sarah Palin as VP, but I would not mind Ben Carson.

I would also not mind Duncan Hunter.

Just saying.

Santorum: 2012 runner-up; ran far ahead of Gingrich that year.

I don't think that should be the first consideration. I think Ginigrich would be a fantastic choice. Santorum, not so much, on any level.

I can’t decide if you just like to post vanities, or what.

Trump is going with an experienced politician. I am glad he is putting Dr. Carson to good use, as he’s a wonderful man and I like seeing him out there.

I think it will be Chris Christie or Scott Walker. Newt will be great Chief of Staff.

No. Trump needs someone with a background in congress. Marsha Blackburn or Duncan Hunter Jr. Newt too old, but could be chief of staff
