Fred, have you heard about this new book out about all the Kennedy men and the women who were unfortunate enough to cross their paths? It's called "Ask Not" by Maureen Callahan. There is some VERY unflattering information in their about RFK Jr. and the treatment of his second wife (who committed suicide in 2012). It was all new information to me. I know the sexual antics of JFK, RFK and Ted Kennedy are now well-known and accepted, but it appears the men of this family have some misogynistic tendencies. Anyway. I look at RFK Jr. a little differently now.
Here's an interview with Callahan on her book. More than enough and more than I wanted to know. I'd venture to say the progeny of any political family is high risk for the nation in our times.
he's upper class and has always been. They all are, how long has it been since a regular, working class person has been able to try for president? has there ever been since the early ones? and were they? I just read they all belonged to secret societies, free masons and the likes. I don't think you get to go there if you are penniless.
Dr. Carson grew up on the streets of Detroit. Raised by a hard-working, illiterate, single mom, who prized education for her two boys and fought like hell to keep them out of gangs, while working three menial jobs. He became a top neurosurgeon.
I really like the movie about him "Gifted Hands." On the DVD I have of it, there is behind-the-scenes stuff with Dr Carson. I have respected and admired him ever since I watched and listened to him on that. His mind is top shelf.
The fact that he is someone that Mike Lindell immediately talked to over the phone and received wise consolation from when Mike couldn't get his security clearance gag order release signed by Trump in January 2021 (for Dennis Montgomery's election fraud evidence) spoke to me; I sensed that Dr Carson has an excellent mindset --in that Mike said that Ben told him that possibly it was not the right time, and asked Mike if it's not possible that God had a different idea (ala Isaiah 55:8 -- "For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, saith the Lord.") something to that effect, in Mike's telling of their conversation.
Dr Carson is soft spoken but hard-to-impossible-to-shake from the steely courage of his convictions from what I see, and he worked earnestly and effectively, in my judgment such as it is, as HUD Secretary (I might not have gotten the title exactly right) in Trump's first term.
He's doen't get riled in the face of the usual hostility and vitriole from unfair detractors and the Trump Deranged, and that's commendable.
He's steady and inexoriably focused on task when it's called for. (He really was a -PIONEERING- BRAIN SURGEON, though I doubt even HE could fix Sleepy Joe... because there's not much to work with there anymore... but I digress. Ben Carson: Gifted hands AND gifted MIND.)
He's shown, to me at least, that he wouldn't likely cave in the face of adversity or disingenuously behave like President Trump's first VP.
I think he, unlike Pence, or some of the other prospective future VP candidates, is the real deal, and we'd be fortunate to have him be President Trump's back-up in his second term.
I like the way he thinks, and the way he carries himself both. He's no light weight intellectually, but he doesn't just throw his weight around ungracefully, or bluster the usual political narratives over and over. He speaks well.
Will Trump pick him? I don't know, and I haven't a clue, other than I believe he's on the short list, so I have hope. I think it would speak well of President Trump to select Dr Ben Carson for VP.
yes but that is not president. Several people worked themselves up, but did they become president? If Dr. Carson runs for president we shall see if he makes it.
My son spent a few years in and out of Johns Hopkins Pediatric Cardiology when he was young (late 80s-early 90s). Many of the cardiologists felt Carson had an overinflated ego. Never met him.

I'd like to see him as Trump's VP.

I agree Anita.
Dr Carson seems to be sincere. A good man.
yes but that is not president. Several people worked themselves up, but did they become president? If Dr. Carson runs for president we shall see if he makes it.

I have heard of this. It would be more bothersome if I didn't know that RFK was an addict then.
Obviously that doesn't excuse anything. But it colors it somewhat.
