How did D-O-C-T-O-R Ben Carson get past 3rd grade?

51. What he does as a surgeon

is incredibly complex and it requires someone that understands more about the workings of the human body than most of us could ever really comprehend. These people are smart, really really smart.

Surgeons are a special breed, especially neurosurgeons, they work in an area of the body where even a slight miscalculation will mean death for the patient. They have to have a really well developed ego to think that they can do it, I think that also draws in sociopaths who do it not so much for the patient but for themselves. It's a rush and it feeds the massive ego.

It doesn't mean that he's not freakin' nuts because he is. He's brilliant but oh yeah he's freakin' nuts. Fortunately I don't think he'll ever be President because that would be catastrophic for the country. He knows shit about foreign policy or economics or anything else that a President has to know.
