14 Important Things To Know About Dr. Ben Carson
5. Secret weapon against the democrats
According to the “Run Ben Run: Draft Ben Carson for President Committee” (now the 2016 Committee) , whose support was vital in Carson’s decision to form a presidential exploratory committee, there is a specific advantage Carson has over his GOP opponents:
Unless the Republican candidate attracts significant support from one of the special interest groups that make up the Democratic Party base (African-Americans, Hispanics, legacy Democrats, youth, union workers) the outcome will be the same. Dr. Carson is apparently the only candidate that makes it mathematically impossible for Hillary Clinton to win. It is a fact that any Republican candidate for president who receives just 17 percent of the African-American vote in the swing states will win the White House. Polling data confirms that Dr. Carson could not only win much, much more than 17 percent of the African-American vote, but will also win a large share of the Hispanic vote. No other prospective Republican candidate for 2016 can make that claim.
