A Presidential Candidate – Ben Carson

Ben Carson announced his intention of running for president.

“I’m willing to be part of the equation and, therefore, I’m announcing my candidacy for president of the United States of America.”

  • Which part?

    Now, what part of his medical training will make him a good President?

  • The same part?

    Maybe the same part that made Howard Dean think he would be a good President.

  • GOP?

    Seems like a nice enough guy, from his tiny self-introduction at his announcement.

    Why is he running as a Republican? (Other than he sticks to much of the party line.) Or, rather, why did he become one to begin with?

  • no longer part of the equation

    Carson is ending his campaign for president.

    Sort of. Gawker says he didn’t actually say he was ending it, just that he saw no path forward and would announce more later in the week.

    (I should update my earlier comments. After my initial reaction, my views of him changed dramatically. He seemed right at place on stage with the others, and came across as kind of weird.)

  • Official

    And now it is official. He’s done with the campaign. He’s returned the Secret Service to the shelf.
