Dr Ben Carson Officially Joins USA Presidential Race. by Chigold101(m): 6:48pm On May 04, 2015 |
The GOP presidential field grew by two Monday as retired neurosurgeon Ben Carson and former technology executive Carly Fiorina both announced they are running for president. The two new candidates enter a quickly expanding GOP field as Democrats get off to a relatively slow start, with another Republican -- former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee -- set to make his announcement on Tuesday. Together, Carson and Fiorina add to the diversity on the Republican side; Fiorina is the first, and possibly only, female Republican in the race, while Carson is the first black candidate of either party to enter the campaign. Carson formally launched his campaign in his hometown of Detroit on Monday. "I'm Ben Carson, and I'm a candidate for president of the United States," Carson said, after being introduced with a series of musical acts. In his soft-spoken tone, Carson blasted big government -- and the Affordable Care Act -- while also acknowledging his history of controversial comments. He described his candor, however, as an asset. "I'm not politically correct," he said, to applause. "I'm probably never going to be politically correct, because I'm not a politician. I don't want to be a politician. ... Politicians do what is politically expedient. And I want to do what's right." Carson tipped his hand a day earlier, also telling Ohio's WKRC-TV that he was announcing his campaign for the White House. |

Ben carson..? without sentiments.. he would lose. he is a genius.. just like me.. but seriously, when it comes to Power.. diplomacy and tact are essential. compromise is a dogged tool. straightforwardness wouldn't work |

I doubt he will win..... He is a genius in academics not in Politics. If he successfully win the primary, he might win. I know he won't question the eligibilty of his opponent by asking for their certificate or bringing out some dead histories like one desperate but acting meekly man in my country. 2 Likes |

This is the kind of people that other countries present as president, achievers ready to serve and not people that don't really know what they want until they get there,only for God-fathers and cabals to Hijack the sits. Buhari now has a fresh chance to make it right and be different. 1 Like 1 Share |

Medley:when there is a standard set, things will just fall into place but when there is no set standard or where there is a lopsided standard as we have in Nigeria, mediocres will continue to dominate our political landscape. Well I am just sitting back Buhari to see how he will pilot this air plane called Nigeria 1 Like |
