The question from Carson’s fan base was obvious, “Why aren’t you taking Ben Carson’s presidential campaign seriously?” when not even a moment later Carson announced “he was putting all public campaign events on hold for a two-week book tour.” Yup, you heard it, a book tour of all things…
Republican presidential contender Dr. Ben Carson has put his public campaign events on hold for two more weeks to go on book tour for his new tome “A More Perfect Union” and catch up on fundraising events. The campaign has been careful to separate campaign events and the book tour, and doesn’t want to classify the tour as related to the campaign in any way. This week he is catching up on fundraising events and will be back on his book tour next week making stops in Texas, Oklahoma, Missouri, Kansas, Nebraska and Iowa. So for the next two weeks, Carson won’t be appearing at any public “campaign events.”
