When the National Draft Ben Carson for President Committee joined my radio program on KCAA on October 18, 2014, the feeling by the end of the show was that if Americans asked Dr. Carson in big enough numbers to run for President, he would do it. It looks like the call for the good doctor to run has caught his attention, and according to ABC News, Carson is the first Republican to possibly throw his hat in the ring.
Technically, Dr. Carson has not formally declared he will run, but he has said he is seriously considering it. Conservatives are very supportive of the possibility of a Ben Carson run for President of the United States, but the concern is that without any political experience he may be in for a tough ride if he should decide to go for it. However, that is a large part of Dr. Carson's appeal. He isn't a politician, he is not a part of the cesspool in Washington, and he is one of the few people in America to call Barack Obama for what he is, and that has been generating excitement over Ben Carson.
His appeal is that he tells the truth. He says it like it is in a manner that we haven't seen in a very long time. He's approachable, and such an unassuming gentleman, that people gravitate towards him.
Could Dr. Carson be on the verge of an official announcement?
Following the GOP sweep in last Tuesday's election, he may.
Speaking of voting day earlier this week, listen to Constitution Radio with Douglas V. Gibbs today at 2:00 pm Pacific as we welcome Tom Del Beccaro, former California Republican Party chairman, as our guest to help us wade through the impact of the 2014 Mid-Term Election.
