Aside from his political views i would totally accept a lunch date with him and maybe split a bar pizza, get some chicken, etc. (his choice) and kick back have a few bers while we just rap about ours lives. despite his demeanor and his desire for the future of the country there has to be something to him that is worthwhile if he used to make his living repairing the brains of little children.

I wonder if he's high functioning autistic or something similar.

quote:

For months, reporters and political operatives (including me) have been pointing out that Ben Carson’s campaign bears many of the hallmarks of a political scam operation. Now Carson seems to agree. On CNN on Tuesday, Carson discussed his year-end staff shake-up:

“We had people who didn't really seem to understand finances," a laughing Carson told CNN's Poppy Harlow on "CNN Newsroom," adding, "or maybe they did—maybe they were doing it on purpose."
It’s a remarkable statement—especially because he’s so blithe about it.

Carson has taken in incredible amounts of money during the race. His campaign has raised more than any other Republican presidential rival, though they’ve raised more when super PACs are included. But he’s also spent more than any of them, so that despite his prolific fundraising, he has barely $4 million in cash on hand.
...

In that Carson is just a brilliant neuroscientist but has stunted social judgement, in particular about people and money.

I don't actually know how good a neuroscientist he is.

Ben Carson said voters were not “quite that dense”, and would not make “a very very bad mistake”.

Carson also said he felt confident about his prospects in Super Tuesday primaries on 1 March.

it's not a rhetorical question, for politely saying 'you are an idiot, you don't know what you are talking about'


I'm as high right now as Carson was during every debate and it's glorious

Get on my level
Dr. Ben Carson is what you'd get if you combined Dr. Thackery with Dr. Edwards on the Knick.

High as hell all the time.

Loves getting into fights, apparently.

Not much good at anything besides surgery.

When a tree grows, it is soft and pliable. But when it's dry and hard, it dies.

Hardness and strength are death's companions. Flexibility and softness are the embodiment of life.

That which has become hard shall not triumph.

well surgeons are basically where the dumb but extremely ambitious narcissists end up in medical land

they'll also be replaced by robots within a decade, so maybe Benzo saw the writing on the wall and decided to make the jump to scamming rubes in the political and book circuits

which means... maybe he's not that dumb???
