Gut reaction, good move.  Might have been a good surgeon general, too.

HUD? 

What an odd choice for a world-class neurosurgeon.  Seems to be something more suited to a person from his construction empire.

State/local government issue.

Maybe Dr. Carson's first act will be to send the duties of HUD back where they belong.

Guessing he wants something non-medical as a resume builder for future runs.

Well, he'll do a helluva lot better job than the current HUD Secretary.

I really like Ben Carson.

I'm sure whatever position he gets he'll be better than the no name Obama puppet who proceeded him (by a long shot!)

Liberals are calling this a racist move; putting a black guy as head of a department with "urban" in the title.

I'm assuming this is a good fit for Dr. Carson, considering his background and where he ended up.

Trump should nominate Keifer Sutherland for HUD Sec.

If he'd appointed a white guy, they'd have howled that white people can't understand urban issues.



Rule #1 of the MSM:  Trump can do no right.

I thought sure he would be a perfect fit for HHS.

Agreed. When some liberal shithead questions one of his policy decisions he can pretty much pull the "I've been there and you haven't" card on them. I think he will do a great job.

Didn't Carson grow up in the projects? What better person to help clean them up than someone who has been there?

My initial thoughts also.  But I Hope Dr. Carson can do the magic he did in neuro surgery as he can in HUD to show the inner cities!

+1

Surgeon General does nothing.  This is a more prestigious appointment if true.

As a guess...Trump wants to trim the budget in several areas, HUD might be one of them.

If Trump's front man is black, it is harder to call him racist.  

I'm sure the Democrats will find a way to call him that anyway.

They'll label him a uncle tom who does what trump tells him to do.
They always give that label to black conservatives who do well.

How does being a surgeon qualify someone for an executive role?

Nothing against Carson.
