Ben Carson has no idea what he's doing

Ben Carson is a quiet neurosurgeon from Detroit Michigan who has had one of the most uniquely American stories in recent history. His mother and him lived in the ghetto of Detroit and against all odds, he became the chief pediatric neurosurgeon at John Hopkins. Despite his success and skills in the medical field, Ben Carson is one of the craziest presidential candidate in recent history.

Ben Carson shows a lack of ability to grasp foreign affairs. This report comes from one of his top advisors who was hired to give Carson weekly briefs on foreign policy in order to "make him smart". Carson is also a hardcore Christian who takes the bible literally. He came out the other week to stand by his 1998 comments that pyramids were made so Joseph could store grain and not as tombs. Being a Christian is a great commitment, one that I personally admire. However, Mr. Carson's faith effects his politics to a degree unprecedented around modernized countries.

Carson would like to use tithing instead of a income tax, using the bible as a point. However, there's a problem with taxing everyone only 10 percent. That leaves a 1.1 trillion dollar deficit. To gain perspective of this, our current deficit is near 500 billion dollars a year. If Ben Carson was able to put forth his tax plan he would raise the deficit 200%. This is coming from the current runner-up in a party whose values used to be fiscal responsibility. When the moderators called out this at the CNBC debate the right complained of media bias and a misunderstanding of the actual plan. I truly believe that not only did the moderators not understand Carson's plan; Carson himself doesn't understand his plan.
