I think so! Because if Donald Trump lost his mind, Ben Carson has the skill to fix it!

No. And I like Dr Carson. But I can't wrap my head around Trump serving as the leader of the free world, a position that requires patience, resolve, and maturity. I just can't see it. Maybe I'll be proved wrong.

I'll take Dr Carson though. Maybe a Carson/Rubio or Carson/Fiorina ticket.

I don't think Dr. Carson would choose Mr. Trump as his running mate. I think he's a very smart man, and he will choose better!

NO! Way too many differences in style. Anyway, the VP is normally chosen that brings in his/her home state. That rules out Carly Fiorina too.

SPC Andrew Griffin That's a thought I have not entertained. I think they would be at conflict with each other from what I've seen on television, their personalities are opposites.

I think their personalities would certainly cancel each other out.

Trump is too much of a loose cannon bent on getting his own way regardless of the laws or the Constitution. We see in the present administration where that leads.

I hope we get a chance to vote for Dr. Carson though. We really need an adult in the White House for a change. My ideal ticket would be Carson/Fiorina - two adults for the price of one!

I think so...but I worry about their inexperience with no politics. Navigation on Capitol Hill is important.

Valid point, but honestly, can it get worse? I'm all about anti-establishment candidates.

Time to unelect the elected.

Absolutely, but even better would be Trump/Cruz. With Carson in a key position. Sec of State, or Interior, or Cheif of Staff. Many goodplace. Col West (ret) as Sec Def. Fiorina maybe as Sec of State??? So many good combinations. But I think Trump, with all his faults, and lack of service, is what the country needs right now. NO POLITICAL connections. Can't be bought. Will get things done, JUST BECAUSE, they need to be done. Doesn't mean he won't bring some problems. But I think the the problems he fixes will outweigh the problems he creates.

I'm going to go out on a limb and say yes. You have the Ying and Yang here with these two. You have the quiet intellectual and the bombastic "you or me" kind of guy. In office this would be valuable in dealing with folks. Trump's in your face style would be counter to Putin's version of the same, and I don't think Putin's prepared to deal with the American version of himself. Carson's strong points would be his background and his quiet but strong demeanor. You never really know what he's thinking, and he'd be a damn good poker player in international relations. You have the good cop and the bad one, and at any time you could get either one, or both. Being the VP's job is to support the POTUS, I have no doubt that Trump in his self serving ways would do just that, and have Carson's back. One serious drawback to having them together is both have hawkish ways and that might not serve in America's best interests.

Senator Webb, besides being a graduate of Annapolis, Marine Infantry officer with a Navy Cross, Silver Star, Two Bronze stars and two Purple Hearts, was a committee general counsel in the House of Representatives, a congressional staffer, an official in the Defense Department, Secretary of the Navy, and a senator.

And some of you guys seriously want to vote for Trump and Carson? Seriously?

Senator Webb also underwent a painful two year rehab trying to get his knee (which had been damaged by shrapnel) so he could pass a physical to stay in the Marine Corps. I wonder if he could identify with any vets dealing with difficult rehabs?

He is also a New York Times Best Selling Author, and he gets screenwriting credit for the movie "Rules of Engagement." He even has a –bleeping- EMMY.

He is the –only- candidate in the race that is worth a flip.

He -is- kinda boring.

Trump keeps saying "I will, I will,I will."

As President Lincoln said: "It is not "can any of us imagine better?" but, "can we all do better?"

In DC it is all turf, prerogative and privilege. Donald Trump is SO unfit to be president it is mind boggling.

I'm still hoping Carson gets the nod...but short of that, I'd take this team.
