Dr. Benjamin Carson - a two-fer

First, from National Review Online:

Carson: Obama Trying to �Destroy the Country�
Dr. Benjamin Carson, the director of pediatric neurosurgery at Johns Hopkins Hospital who garnered national headlines for his pointed remarks at last month�s National Prayer Breakfast, says that President Obama and his political allies are trying to �destroy the country.�

�Let�s say somebody were [in the White House] and they wanted to destroy this nation,� Carson postulated in remarks at the Conservative Political Action Conference. �I would create division among the people, encourage a culture of ridicule for basic morality and the principles that made and sustained the country, undermine the financial stability of the nation, and weaken and destroy the military. It appears coincidentally that those are the very things that are happening right now.�

Next, from The Washington Post:

Ben Carson announces retirement, feeds presidential speculation
Ben Carson, an emerging star in the conservative movement since his National Prayer Breakfast speech last month, fed into increasing speculation Saturday that he could run for president.

Carson announced at the Conservative Political Action Conference that he would retire from his medical practice in the coming months and then suggested something else was on the horizon.

�I want to quit while I�m at the top of my game, and there are so many more things that could be done,� the 61-year old said as the crowd rose to its feet.

A bit more:

�Let�s say you magically put me in the White House,� he said. The crowd rose and gave him another ovation.

He would be an amazing President -- we really need an adult in that office.
