Ben Carson's Campaign is Self-Destructing

The presidential bid of Ben Carson, a tea party star who has catapulted into the top tier of Republican contenders, has been rocked by turmoil with the departures of four senior campaign officials and widespread disarray among his allied super PACs.

Carson’s associates described a political network in tumult in interviews Friday, saying the retired neurosurgeon’s campaign chairman, national finance chairman, deputy campaign manager and general counsel have all resigned since Carson formally launched his bid last month in Detroit.

As evidenced by this and his plethora of idiotic comments, Dr. Ben has shown that he is out of his league.

Yes. lawdawg got the name of the 'news source' wrong. We must presume he just made a mistake in his mind, and wasn't being dishonest about the source....

From the organizer of this silly shit in Phoenix:

Ritzheimer said he’s received threats from terrorists on Twitter, and that he and his family no longer feel safe in their home. He said he asked participants to bring guns in the Facebook invite as a precautionary measure. Some brought two or three firearms, from pistols and revolvers to shotguns and assault rifles. Some wore military fatigues.

“I can’t let my kids grow up in a society where tyranny is reigning over. I’ve got ISIS posting my address. This is terrorism at its finest, right here in America,” he said. ”My family has to go into hiding.”

http://www.washingtonpost.com/news/p...uslim-protest/

So, he and a bunch of biker thugs show up armed to the teeth at an Islamic cultural center and he's the one who feels threatened? It's almost funny to watch such armed, tough-as-nails bikers whining about themselves being the ones who feel threatened. What a bunch of pussies with a persecution complex.

Looks like everyone is abandoning ship. That's too bad, I'd like to see the good doctor ripping it up on the Fox 'Ten Sweethearts of the Rodeo' debate stage.

Let's be honest here.

The Republicans were never going to nominate a black man for the top of the ticket.

You mean 15 minutes less than usual? That will, be difficult!
