But he'll know more in a year, Stephen. Sarcasm turned up to 11.

I am reading all messages about Carson, and I am wondering if we are talking about a black man, who came from poverty, had no financial support from family and became one of the most respected brain surgeons in the world, or just a retarded who is unable to tie his own shoes...

I agree with that. I have seen interviews and it feels that Carson is too weak and inexperienced. His field of expertise is extremely technical, lacking the exposure to the world of politics that is real and needs someone skilled to deal with. In a way, even Trump seems to be more prepared to deal with politics than him (and, just for the record, I think Trump is an asshole).

Trump is all politics, no policy ("I'll fix it; you'll love it."). The Urban Legend President.

The Republicans seem to run either a nut job or a liar

Do you believe Hillary Clinton to be an honest, trustworthy person?

I think Hillary tells people as much truth as she thinks they want to hear. I do not think she's nuts or racist like many Republicans. There are sensible Republicans, such as Kasich, Rubio, and even Jeb. Though they don't seem to be able to rally support as well as the guys who say the outrageous or stupid things.

Trump is insane. Carson is, to coin a phrase, 'bi-intellectual'. Smart enough to become a doctor, yet prone to idiotic statements. Next to those guys, Bush sounds great.

Do you believe Hillary Clinton to be an honest, trustworthy person? --- Short answer, no. Longer answer: ** I think Hillary tells people as much truth as she thinks they want to hear. ** One thing she and Donald Trump have in common is they don't seem able to help themselves. Trump's a blowhard liar who never backs down, Hillary is an prevaricator alchemist who will cook a ton of bullshit down to a molecule of, well, not gold. Maybe zinc, or tin.

Trump has also publicly mocked a disabled journalist.
Now, it's better that he lets the world see what he is like before any nominations take place, but this shows him to be a seriously odious character.
