Politics is a thankless profession, unlike being a neurosurgeon where one has many wins, along with losses. Mr. Carson does not flaunt his wealth (surgeons make quite a bit of money) and he was tops in his field. With that sad, I think his humility, quiet and steadfast demeanor, unwavering support of DJT, kindness, and religious beliefs would make him a good support as VP for DJT. He would not try to outshine Trump, but would be the exact opposite of Trump. Opposites attract. However, I doubt it is any of the people on the list that the media is purporting, who will get the spot.
