Retired neurosurgeon Ben Carson is under active consideration to be the next secretary of Housing and Urban Development, President-elect Trump said Tuesday.
"I am seriously considering Dr. Ben Carson as the head of HUD. I've gotten to know him well — he's a greatly talented person who loves people," Trump tweeted Tuesday afternoon.
Trump met with Carson at Trump Tower on Tuesday, presumably to discuss the Cabinet-level position. Carson had previously been floated as a possible Secretary of Education or Health and Human Services.

Dear God I hope not. Carson is a Seventh Day Adventist, with some seriously skewed religious bents that interfere with his ability to interpret facts and science. I mean, facts a science are generally a problem for those with religious blinders on, but Adventists are considered nutty by Jehovahs Witnesses... and well... I think I rest my case.
ReplyDeleteI'd certainly like to see Ben in some Cabinet position, as his love and empathy of others is his most remarkable trait.
ReplyDeleteI have no idea where 12:02 gets their information, but one listen to Mr. Carson will tell you he's no crackpot as implied. I think 12:02 might be the crackpot here!
12:02 - your bigotry is showing. Ben Carson is just the man who can help solve our urban crisis.
