Most FReepers have never graduated from law school, but most of us are smarter than Obama or Hillary.
I’ve got a genius mechanic, but his spelling is terrible.
Just because a person is brilliant at one thing does not mean that this person is brilliant in all areas.
I haven’t seen or heard many people here on FR say negative things about Carson as a surgeon. That’s not where people take issue with the man.
They have a problem with his horrible political positions and his lack of common sense.
But every time someone points out his problematic positions, someone chimes in with “but he’s a gifted surgeon!”
So. What.
Unless he’s being elected to lobotomize Nancy Pelosi (something that I could get behind), then his surgical ability means nothing. We’re electing a POTUS. Not a Pelosi Lobotomizer. (darn it)
The fact that he’s a good surgeon doesn’t make him a decent human being and it doesn’t mean that he has common sense.
Nope. The problem is the denigrating persoanl attacks. He's not an idiot but Trump supporters et al jump around calling Carson such.
We need to stick to policy issues and leave off calling anyone names. Otherwise this election season is going to see us eating one another instead of the liberals. And it will cost us.
