Ben Carson, neurosurgeon joined politics

B en Carson is a respected US citizen who had a distinguished career as a neurosurgeon. He was born in Detroit Michigan in 1951 and had a troubled youth growing up in the inner cities. He is a husband, dad, author, neurosurgeon and philanthropist. Dr Carson has retired from his distinguished medical career and has now joined politics. Ben is a candidate for the Republican Party nomination for the President of the USA in the 2016 election. The number of candidates seeking the Republican Party’s nomination is quite high. In recent months, a few of the candidates had to drop out due to poor ratings. They include Louisiana governor Bobby Jindal. In contrast to this, Carson has been doing rather well on the polls. He is constantly ranked second only to the billionaire investor Donald Trump. Trump has been quoted saying he may consider taking Ben Carson as his running mate should he win the nomination. Dr Ben Carson has been performing well in the polls because of a few reasons. One reason is that he is neither a traditional Republican politician nor a Washington insider. He does not focus on talking points or political correctness but has made his stand known on several issues very clear. For instance, he is against abortion for convenience and believes abortion beyond 20 weeks pregnancy should be banned. He does not believe in gay marriage and is of the opinion being gay is a choice. He’d rather members of the gay community be given some rights but not marriage. Ben Carson is heading into the holiday season with plenty of confidence and he is looking forward to the primaries which are likely to start early in 2016. He has his own website where his presidential ambitions are found. His showing in state and national polls place him almost at the top of the pack that at one time had close to 15 aspirants. While he has had some hiccups a long the way, an above average performance is to be expected at the primaries. The Republican base has definitely shown some renowned interest in this non-traditional presidential candidate.
