Dr. Carson weak on terrorism?

A shift away from the economy and social issues and toward foreign policy might be inevitable after what happened Friday. For Ben Carson, that's probably not good news.

   Well, at least they are not gleeful.

    And this article does admit that Dr. Carson has strength in domestic issues.

      But that they hope foreign affairs will for once trump domestic concerns makes them seem hopeful that Carson will fail.

Carson knows almost nothing about foreign policy.
Cruz thinks he knows, but everything he says he knows is wrong. He also probably knows it is wrong, but it is what the rubes want to hear
Rubio will take whatever stand on foreign policy his donors tell him to take.
Jeb! will be a rerun of Juniorbush.

Carson knows almost nothing about foreign policy.

And neither did our current Community Organizer & Chief


Cruz thinks he knows, but everything he says he knows is wrong.

Same as our current Community Organizer & Chief


Rubio will take whatever stand on foreign policy his donors tell him to take.

Same as our current Community Organizer & Chief


Jeb! will be a rerun of Juniorbush.

Kind of like what Obama did with his "surge" in Afghanistan, and still with troops all around the middle east? Just not in the numbers to accomplish anything like Bush could

Obama has done quite well in international relations. He clearly knew a lot, and had good advisers.

How does badmouthing Obama make Carson an expert? You need to realize that this is a very stupid debating technique.

Ahhh, so you helped uncover a valuable asset to any President who lacks experience in a particular area....Advisers.  So, there's no reason what so ever, that a President Carson coudn't select some "good advisers" as well

And yet, folks like yourself, performed that on an hourly basis, when it came to badmouthing Bush, to try and make Obama "an expert".  apparently, per your parameters, that was a very stupid debating technique

Juniorbush demonstrated his incompetence on a regular basis, and I pointed it out.

Carson COULD select "good" advisors, but the question would be WOULD he?

He won't ever be president, so this is speculation, but he has a variety of wacko primitive beliefs that suggest that he might choose others of a similar persuasion.

Why not ?

There are a lot of experts available, why would he settle for less than excellence?

If anyone, I would expect Hillary to choose cronies rather than real experts, isn't that already in her history?

That would be because he might be incapable of recognizing excellence. Perhaps he would reject someone who believed in evolution or had pooh-poohed his weird theories on the pyramids.

James Watt, Reagan's Secretary of the Interior was a nut who believed that we might as well clear cut national parks and forests because The End Was Coming and Jesus would take over at just any minute.

Watt was certainly NOT an "excellent" candidate for the job. He was a tinfoil hatted nutjob. And everyone knew it.

And why wouldn't he?


He won't ever be president, so this is speculation

Same was said for a certain black Democrat Senator, out of Illinois, as the Dem power structure was all set to anoint Mrs Clinton

...................................... as the Dem power structure was all set to anoint Mrs Clinton

And they are at it again.
A total mystery to me.

What leverage could HRC have on the party establishment to shut the door on the Democrat stable of candidates?
