Ben Carson to endorse Trump!

[Robby999 1,024]

Ben Carson, who dropped out of the Republican presidential race just last week, will endorse front-runner Donald Trump on Friday.

Trump confirmed the endorsement during the Republican presidential debate Thursday night.

The retired neurosurgeon plans to hold a press conference at 9 a.m. ET Friday to announce his support, sources told Fox News.

The backing from the outsider ex-candidate, who captivated conservative voters with his unconventional campaign, could give Trump a boost as the candidates charge into critical primaries next Tuesday in Florida, Ohio and three other states.

It also serves as a potential counterweight as other ex-candidates weigh in against him. Former HP CEO Carly Fiorina endorsed Ted Cruz earlier this week, and former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush is meeting with Trump’s rivals, though it’s unclear whether he might endorse someone before Tuesday.

The Washington Post first reported on Carson’s expected endorsement. Sources told the Post that Carson agreed to the endorsement after a meeting with Trump at the billionaire's Mar-a-Lago luxury home in Palm Beach, Fla.

As Trump builds his delegate lead with a string of recent primary wins, the GOP candidates also faced off at a debate Thursday night in Miami.

Earlier on Thursday, Carson said he was "certainly leaning" toward endorsing Trump over Texas Sen. Cruz, during an interview with Fox News Radio's John Gibson.

"There are two Donald Trumps," Carson told Gibson. "There's the Donald Trump that you see on television and who gets out in front of big audiences, and there's the Donald Trump behind the scenes. They're not the same person."

He said the other Donald Trump is “actually a thinking individual” and “someone you can reason with very easily.”

I guess you don't want trump to win . Carson is too low energy for trump. It will be quite interesting to see who he picks. I would love to see him go with either a woman or a Latino or even better a Latina but that is likely too transparent, a bit too forced.

Low energy or just likes thinking before opening his mouth. I think he would make a very good VP. Those two could give this country what it currently lacks! (Backbone & Brains)

The first. I have said it for a long time I think he is the world's stupidest neurosurgeon. He is obviously good at something and us an accomplished career but he was consistently and impressively unimpressive during his campaign. I am not saying he is a bad person, he was just a bad contender.

I would pay to view that video, too! ( Trump going with a woman/Latina)

I guess I like him because he is real and has lived at all levels of life in America. Unlike Trump, he did not have a fortune left to him so he knows exactly what people go through trying to succeed and prosper. As far as stupid, I assume you are saying he was stupid leaving his medical work behind for politics. I read his bio and his story is basically rags to riches due to hard work and perseverance on his part. Here is a link just in case you want to check out his bio. http://www.thefamouspeople.com/profiles/ben-carson-5393.php

I am spit balling here, but if just half of the Carson supporters decide to listen and go to Trump that would be like 35 votes more for the Trumpmeister! Wow!

[smilesammich 10,727]

if i'm following carson correctly, slavery was bad for the nation, but good for black people. which is confusing.

The human brain can only handle so much information. There is a limit.

When I was in school, we would often have lectures from specialists in the field. While I was always amazed at the volume of information they could recall and the depth that they could go into to answer a question, I was also amazed that they would be walking around the parking lot for hours at the end of the day because they had no idea where they parked their car, or they would ask for help to use a microwave because they had no idea.

Carson is among the worst politicians I can recall in my lifetime, but I would never make light of his ability as a physician. He is a smart guy and he devoted his genius to his life's calling. Unfortunately there wasn't a lot left over for other things. Sometimes it works out that way.
