Ben Carson is reporting that a ‘shake-up’ is coming within his campaign organization. Really?
First of all, he must face the truth, he cannot win. He has no ‘message.’ His only tactic; attack Washington, a place where he wants to reside. His flaws are numerous; he is a religious extremist, denies scientific fact, and a prevaricator.
“Everything. Everything is on the table,” Carson said of potential changes. “Every single thing is on the table. I’m looking carefully.”
Carson has been hinting at ‘personnel changes.’ Maybe he should seek a ‘personality’ change. His appeal to voters is baseless. He is not well-versed in our nation’s political system, and is not charismatic. His qualifications are nil. He was never been the lead man in a business, and has never held public office.
Later Carson reneged on some previous statements, and said that he was confident in his team, and that “we are refining some operational practices and streamlining some staff assignments to more aptly match the tasks ahead.”
The statement added that his senior team “remains in place with my full confidence, and they will continue to execute our campaign plan.”
Someone needs to inform Carson that he is wasting money. Anyone who follows politics is fully aware that the race for the GOP nomination is now between three pitiful candidates; Donald Trump, Ted Cruz, and Marco Rubio.
With the aid of evangelicals, it is highly likely that Cruz will win the Iowa caucus. Predictions that Rubio will overtake Cruz in New Hampshire and beyond seem likely, and that will result in a final battle between Trump and Rubio throughout the early part of 2016.
The next time you decide to waste your time and watch a Republican faux-debate, keep in mind that none of the clown car passengers can succeed in their goals other than Trump, Cruz, and Rubio. Now you must decide if any of these presidential hopefuls presents ideas and goals beneficial to the American public. I know that you will find them lacking; international relations will be the only issue they scream about constantly, but offer no realistic alternatives.
Ben Carson, we hardly knew you; and you will not be remembered.

The Truth With No Restrictions 
Maybe Carson is not qualified, but I’m not really seeing anyone who is qualified. If he could just stop with his story time approach maybe he would stand a chance. As it is I see a lot of bad options–he has just enough name recognition to maybe stand out from the pack.
