Yes, he's the perfect GOP candidate for the wrecked.boaters...
 
Ben Carson and the ‘learning curve of a candidate’

There’s little doubt that Ben Carson is moving closer to a Republican
presidential campaign. In his latest syndicated column, the retired
doctor acknowledged the “learning curve of a candidate” and conceded he
still has a lot to learn “in terms of becoming both a better candidate
and a better potential president of the United States.”

Soon after, the company that syndicates Carson’s pieces announced the
end of his column.

This will presumably give the Republican more time to address the
“learning curve,” which doesn’t seem to be going well. The new feature
in GQ on Carson includes the headline, “What If Sarah Palin Were a Brain
Surgeon?” It includes this gem:

When I asked him which secretary of state he most admired, he replied
Condoleezza Rice—who, of course, happened to be the most recent person
to hold that post in a Republican administration. Similarly, Robert
Gates was Carson’s favorite secretary of defense.


The same piece noted Carson’s trip to Israel, where he seemed surprised
to discover that Israel has a legislative branch.

The woman answered Carson’s question about political parties, telling
him that there were Labor and Likud and a host of other factions in the
Knesset. “And what is the role of the Knesset?” he interjected. This
prompted a tutorial on Israel’s legislature. Carson is a tall,
dignified-looking man with a placid, almost sleepy face. As he tried to
concentrate on his Hebrew Schoolhouse Rock primer, he seemed even more
fatigued. “It sounds complex,” he finally said. “Why don’t they just
adopt the system we have?”

Eventually, the unannounced candidate conceded “there’s a lot of
material to learn,” but insisted that “we spend too much time trying to
get into these little details that are easily within the purview of the
experts that you have available to you.”

Yup...doesn't know much about anything in government, politics,
world affairs, but thinks he's qualified enough...for the GOPers in
wrecked.boats.
