Pelosi says Dr. Carson is disturbingly unqualified to head HUD...

God bless the USA
Nancy has, officially, lost her mind. Dr. Carson is perfect for the job because he lived it. He grew up with a single mom who taught him the way out of the inner city impoverished way of life that Dems love to perpetuate. He became one of the most outstanding doctors in history. Maybe, he could repair Nancy's brain; as in separate her brain from her elitist, globalist, socialist twin libprog baby brains. He would be doing her a great service.

I will just leave y'all my bing search on this subject. Y'all can pick and choose what you want to read.

Mike Huckabee just observed that she didn't say that when the spectacularly unqualified Barack Obama was elected president.

Regardless, really, how difficult can it be? Doesn't any reasonably thoughtful and intelligent civilian have a good handle on what needs to happen with HUD? HUD's mission statement:

HUD's mission is to create strong, sustainable, inclusive communities and quality affordable homes for all. HUD is working to strengthen the housing market to bolster the economy and protect consumers; meet the need for quality affordable rental homes; utilize housing as a platform for improving quality of life; build inclusive and sustainable communities free from discrimination, and transform the way HUD does business.

It's not like the "experts" have been doing such a hot job with that, so why not give Ben Carson a shot at it? Here's the bio of the current HUD Inspector General: http://docs.house.gov/meetings/GO/GO24/20140522/102270/HHRG-113-GO24-Bio-MontoyaD-20140522.pdf He is less qualified than Ben Carson and I never heard anyone bitch about him.

This is just another blahblahblah by the bubbleheads that the parrots will pick up and squawk out like they know what they're talking about. Trump could have picked the most qualified educated HUD specialist on earth and Nancy Pelosi would fret and prattle that s/he's "disturbingly unqualified". Her job is to bitch about everything Trump does.

Here's the current one, a self acclaimed affirmative action case.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Julian_Castro

"He graduated from Stanford in 1996 with a bachelor's degree in political science and communications. He said he began thinking about entering politics while at Stanford,[6] where he and his brother launched their first campaigns and won student senate seats, tying for the highest number of votes.[4] Castro has credited affirmative action for his admission into Stanford, telling The New York Times, "Joaqu#n and I got into Stanford because of affirmative action. I scored 1210 on my SATs, which was lower than the median matriculating student. But I did fine in college and in law school. So did Joaqu#n. I’m a strong supporter of affirmative action because I’ve seen it work in my own life".[13] Between his sophomore and junior years, Castro worked as an intern at the White House during the presidency of Bill Clinton.[14]"

*shrug* - Seriously, when was the last time you even *knew* who the HUD secretary was? I work under the Commerce Secretary, but most people NEVER know who that is unless they work for them.

So because Dr. Carson grew up in a poor neighborhood he is perfect to be Secretary of Housing and Urban Development? How does your brain twist that logic into shape? I just had breakfast...does that make me qualified to head the FDA? I've been to the doctor...does that make me qualified to be head of the CDC? I've traveled outside the US...does that make me qualified to be Sec of State? No of course it doesn't.

Here are the topic areas from the HUD website:

Dr. Carson is a trained and experienced surgeon. What base of knowledge does a skilled surgeon have that transfers to Housing and Urban Development? Dr. Carson, if he were still sane, would make a great Surgeon General or head of the CDC. But HUD? Dr. Carson himself said he was unqualified for the job! But Pelosi is a nutjob for stating the obvious and reiterating the comments Dr. Carson himself made?

TJ Do you know what qualifications the HUD secretary has had the past 8 years? Whose to say any of them have been qualified? Pelosi is just a nutjob just look at the past. She's a Racist, that has no business holding public office.

Let me help with that. So, here's the thing. His supposed "Star of urban housing" chops come from being the mayor of San Antonio. Not where he actually accomplished anything, because he didn't. Like so many politicians, he made this great sounding proposal, the "Decade of Downtown". Didn't stick around to see it through though. Again, it looked good enough to put on the resume, and President Obama picked him up only two years after passing the Decade thing. So, again, it's like so many politicians. You don't really need to accomplish things, just start a great sounding program and bail before it collapses. Oh, and his Mom helped found La Raza, so there's that,,,,,

Before HUD, Castro served as Mayor of the City of San Antonio. During his tenure, he became known as a national leader in urban development. In 2010, the City launched the "Decade of Downtown", an initiative to spark investment in San Antonio's center city and older neighborhoods. This effort has attracted $350 million in private sector investment, which will produce more than 2400 housing units by the end of 2014.

In addition, San Antonio's East Side is the only neighborhood in America that has received funding to implement major projects under three key Obama Administration revitalization initiatives: Choice Neighborhoods, Promise Neighborhoods and the Byrne Criminal Justice Program.

Since you're certainly knowledgeable on the subject, you might know about his VERY humble beginnings, and his struggle to become one of the nation's foremost neurosurgeons.
It might not make him perfect for the job, but he is an able administrator with first hand exposure to the problems at hand - unlike the current one, who grew up in much better circumstances.

Dr. Carson could bring some of his intuitive historical insights to bear on our urban blight issues. Perhaps start storing grain in all of our mausoleums and funeral homes.

Pelosi is already a nutjob - this doesn't move the needle either way.

But now that your guys aren't in power, you're going to spend the next couple years nitpicking at absolutely anything.
Seriously - whether or not Carson is qualified as HUD Secretary. Are you really that hard up, or do you feel compelled to insult everything?

Admittedly, his Seventh Day Adventist beliefs have always been a concern to me.
Then again, I think your average citizen thinks the Jews built the Pyramids as slaves in Egypt (as, apparently someone as smart as Menachem Begin once asserted).
Perhaps because they believe the movie "The Ten Commandments" is somehow *history* (although it doesn't show the Pyramids).

My mom scrubbed with him, years ago. So from her accounts and his written material and list of accomplishments, I've no doubt he is brilliant when it comes to medicine.
But just about everyone I know is way off when it comes to history. I now have a smart-ass brother who's completing his PhD in history - he's always telling me sh!t I get wrong.

Why don't you just say what you think??

He can't do the job.. he's unqualified.. because you and Nancy are racist and don't believe any black educated person could be capable..

So, outside of "everyone else in history has been bad, so what's the problem with another one", what makes Carson a good pick?

"It's in the book that he's got a pathological temper," Trump told Burnett. "That's a big problem because you don't cure that. ... As an example, child molesting. You don't cure these people. You don't cure a child molester. There's no cure for it. Pathological, there's no cure for that."

"You know, when he says he went after his mother and wanted to hit her in the head with a hammer, that bothers me. I mean, that’s pretty bad," Trump explains. "When he says he’s pathological... and he says that in the book, I don’t say that... and again, I’m not saying anything, I’m not saying anything other than pathological is a very serious disease. And he said he’s pathological, somebody said he has pathological disease."
