Hmm, would have thought he would have taken the surgeon general whatever position.
|
|
Good.
I'm sure he's brilliant in his field but, in most others, he's fucking clueless. |
|
If true it's a disappointment. Surgeon General seems like a good place for him in the administration.

|
|
Good.
Go back to being Doctor and stay away from law and policy. |

He just bought a new 8,700 sqft house in Fl.

I hope he's involved with the O-care repeal/fix. He doesn't need a cabinet level position for that.
He probably knows more about how to fix the healthcare system than any 3 people in DC. |

You're personally asked by the president to serve your country in an honorary position and you refuse?
Classy. |

That's bad news. The Trump administration needs to have one or two black cabinet members and at least two women. Who are the black conservatives that ARFCOM wants in the cabinet? |
|
maybe Trump can just get a few who identify with other races and sexes

Surgeon General salary: 181k
Ben Carson's income between January 2014 and May 2015 according to Wikipedia: "Over that period, Carson received over $4 million from 141 paid speeches; between $1.1 million and $6 million in book royalties; between $200,000 to $2 million as a contributor to the Washington Times and Fox News; and between $2 million and $10 million as a member of the boards of Kellogg Co. and Costco Wholesale Corp." |

For Carson to preclude a Cabinet position for himself, must mean that Trump has slipped him the word that he's not in the running.
Anyway, Surgeon General (head of the Public Health Service) is not a Cabinet position. |

Remember? It is about quals. Race, gender do not matter. That is all Leftist bullshit. Remember? |

Don't care. I want the most qualified person that will do the job. If the administration ends up all white guys over 50 so be it. If the best person for a job is a Polynesian tranny in a wheelchair sign them up. Skills, performance, and results trump all other qualities. View Quote View All Quotes View All Quotes Quoted:

You may not care, but you only represent yourself. It is absurd to assume or believe that having an all white male cabinet would be a wise choice. Thankfully, I hope Trump will have several women (Conway, Ingraham, Katrina) as advisors and/or cabinet members. We need conservatives of all stripes if we are to be successful, and that includes blacks (West, Sowell, Clark) and Republican latinos (Rubio, Cruz, etc.) in the Supreme Court or other important posts. |

I sincerely hope he at least has a voice in the administration, even if he's just the guy trump calls when questions come up in his sphere of knowledge.

Carson said immediately after the election that he had been in discussions with Trump but preferred to be on the outside advising rather than in the Cabinet. Looks like he was serious. I don't blame him.

Good for him. Exactly. Who would want to wade in the cesspool of Washington D.C. when you can wade in your own gorgeous backyard pool on the 15th green in Palm Beach. Looks awesome! Hope he enjoys his life..whatever he ends up doing. Seems like a good man. |
