Doctor Ben showed up in first place on one national poll. Beat Trump by several points, but it's only one poll.

I hope the opposition from all sides hits Carson as hard as they can. My hope is that they pound him as hard as the Republicans pound Hillary.

Because I want to see what he's made of. I want to see if he can stand up under pressure and scrutiny, because if he wins the nomination I want a candidate who can take the heat and make decisions, and not turn to petty accusations and whining and divisive tactics.

That's what Hillary and Bill and Obama do, and I don't want it in a President any more! I want a President who demonstrates to all who are watching that it is not necessary to find a scapegoat, and it is not necessary to ridicule the opposition, and it is not necessary read polls in order to "discover how you feel" about an issue.

Good Luck to you, Doctor Ben! I hope you make it.

I am hoping for the same thing as you are (that Carson gets hit hard), but that it will solidify Trump's front-runner status A Trump/Carson pairing is my dream ticket, and an excellent shot to win the Presidency.

If the GOP nominates a religious whack job like Carson who believes we need to go back to the 1800's excluding the thing with Blacks, they may as well hand the Democrats the White House.

That won't ever happen. If it did, there would be blood on the carpet of the Oval Office the day after the inauguration.
