Ben Carson Is Too Weak to Be President
Is anyone else getting tired of the constant parade of sub par Republican presidential candidates? It’s very sad that we have to take these people seriously, when they clearly don’t even take themselves seriously.
The Republican Party is scraping the bottom of the barrel to find a candidate that is the right mix of crazy, likeable, and submissive so that mega donors can pull the strings from behind the curtain.
The biggest problem is that these candidates don’t want to be president because they want to lead – they want to be president because they want that title; they want the power; they want that distinction of winning. Some of them aren’t even qualified to RUN for president, let alone hold the office of the presidency.
The name that stands out the most is Dr. Ben Carson. While he has absolutely no chance of even winning his party’s nomination, Carson is still out there on the campaign trail talking about issues that he really knows nothing about.
