The VP is a diplomat as much as anything else. The Executives liaison to State Governments, Federal Agencies, and various Civilian organizations and occasionally national governments. Free of oversight by the State Department.
Enough of the different factions of the Base likes him. Even if he’s not the candidate they’d prefer in that role. Decently well respected.
Soft spoken. Hasn’t been extreme in rhetoric. Which would be useful when it comes to mending the domestic situation and ratcheting down political tensions. And extending an olive branch to whatever will be left of the American left. It would also help assuage the concerns of Business Owners. Who are probably going to be jumpy once asset seizures and arrests of Corporate/Business figures start in earnest.
He’d be a decent fit for the duties the person filling that roll will be necessity need to undertake in the aftermath of such a dramatic shakeup of the Nation
I think Ben Carson will bring his genius to the table is solving many of the issues we need. He is also not a showman but a quiet behind the scenes man dedicated to America and the people, which is what is desirable in VP.
I'm looking at this as a positive for a few reasons. But the main reason is admittedly a superficial one.
If they do decide to push big Mike out there, you need to have a black dude as VP. Trump attacking Big Mike, albeit fairly, will be pushed as racist and transphobic, even though they'll deny he's a trans. {Yes this is the state of the commie brigade, it doesn't have to make sense}.
Ben Carson can take some of that manufactured heat off.
Until they begin with the Uncle Tom stuff, but at that point they'll be spinning their wheels in the high mud of hypocrisy
It's a good observation that Carson is an excellent choice, except for this election. Should Trump not be able to serve his full turn, the VP becomes the person who has to fight Lucifer and succeed. Is that Carson?
I’m voting for Trump so his VP is irrelevant to me however, I just think Carson is too soft to light a fire under the asses of the deep state were Trump to fall. It just doesn’t sit right with me. Like I said, Trump is getting my vote regardless but I hope he picks someone that can at least work a crowd the same as him.
I love Ben Carson and have the utmost respect for him. I don’t think that he is VP material. That person has to be prepared to step in as president at a moment’s notice. He will be good for a cabinet position. It’s probably going to be a woman. Maybe Tulsi Gabbard switches parties.
Imagine what it would do with the black vote. Democrats would shit themselves. Ben is a very religious man. The black society has been through hell for the last few decades, they are the verge of losing their moral compass. I think Ben could be the Dad that many black men never had when growing up. We need to bring back some Biblical guidance to a large section of society.
Tulsi isn't fit for being president, period. I hope he doesn't pick someone based on skin color or gender. Carson may be a good fit, I don't know anything about him. I just hope Trump doesn't all into the DEI trap.
Ben Carson would make a fine choice for VP in every way.

I love this man ,, well both of them ;)

Some mod needs to sticky this post for a few hours.

Well said.
He also disproves something blacks and perhaps especially black men are taught. Namely that the game is rigged and you can never succeed.
Also, a racist having a black man as his VP ... is pretty unlikely. So Carson would disprove that bullshit as well.

I don't know anything about him
Carson is a neurosurgeon. He is brilliant. Here's a speech he gave at Liberty University.
Agreed. I hope he doesn’t choose her either. I’m just afraid that he may go down that road.
Tulsi would be a disaster.
At best, Tuisi will be a cabinet pick.
We don't need anyone with a cult association even if it may be the thing of the past
He is going to be 10 times better than either Kamala Harris or Dan Quayle.
You know what they say about the silent ones
