I listened to part of the Commonwealth Club yesterday, featuring Dr. Carson. For the most part, he espouses all of the temious and shallow right-wing "positions" on the issues. The business model is to first state a broad assumption that is flawed (lower taxes on investment capital stimulates the economy, for instance), then proceed to elaborate on how America will be wonderfully transformed by it in a few short days.

I found it interesting that Carson was every bit as egotistical about his "accomplishments" as Trump is, given the opportunity to Bogart the spotlight without competition. Bennie is sacrificing himself for our good to run for President. Like Jesus...

You never change things by fighting the existing reality.
To change something, build a new model that makes the old model obsolete.
