American Presidential candidates GoP/Dems
Discussion
They'll start clamouring for airtime soon enough...it's already started, GoP should be more fun since Hils will probably suck up all the Dems energy.
Just had one on Newsnight, a doctor Ben Carson.
He believes in natural selection, but he doesn't believe in macro-evolution, or "species becoming other species"....so we all turned up as is then?
Wow, he's a real winner...

There is no doubt he is intelligent and a gifted doctor/surgeon.But is he deluded or a liar?
His denial of evolution, particularly saying he doesn't have enough faith to believe that something as complex as our ability to rationalize, think, and plan, and have a moral sense of what’s right and wrong, just appeared. But he has enough faith to believe a sky pixie created it all 'as is'
So at least in my opinion he is either lying to appease the republical voters or he is deluded, as he is clearly an intelligent man I think the former is more likely.
His view on healthcare is a bit OTT too, he called the Affordable Care Act “the worst thing that has happened in this nation since slavery.”
Honestly ? Not two world wars, Vietnam, 20s Depression ?

Ted's in, the first of the crazies to declare for the GOP. If the thought of a Cruz presidency makes you shudder (and it should) think on this. Donald Trump has formed an exploratory committee! The gates of the asylums will swing open shortly and free the Rick's Santorum and Perry for another go and after that all sorts of whackos will throw their hats in. Remember Herman "999" Cain? He's thinking about it! Perennial loser Ron Paul? His son's going to run! Had enough Bush's? There's another one about to declare! Roll up, roll up for the craziest show since the last time this bunch of no hopers tried to find a credible candidate. That time they ended up with Mitt Romney!
