Well William, I agree that Carson's heart is in the right place. But I see no evidence that he has the personal experience or other qualifications to clean the "swamp" in a constructive way. Surgeons are good at ordering people around. Im sure there are exceptions who make good leaders. But I'd want strong evidence of that before selecting one to wield a scalpel in a large government bureaucracy. 

Trump is a businessman. I don't believe he would ever hire Carson to even run one of his hotels. But it's fine to put him in charge of a multi-billion dollar federal agency? I agree with Cloudjockey's comment above. Carson is a candidate for the position because he is Black and because he supported Trump. I don't like it when Democrats use tax funded agencies and positions to reward friends and supporters, regardless of qualifications. And we need to call out Republicans when they do it.
