Fred Barnes is pimping a Ben Carson presidential run. Apparently, Ben Carson will not run for president unless he receives some kind of direct message from God. However, Carson is beginning to wonder whether God is texting him:
Carson writes that he suspects many others interested in high office would be better candidates. But in his book he has a caveat: “If I felt called by God to officially enter the world of politics, I would certainly not hesitate to do so.”
Interviewed this week, Carson said he’s “starting to feel it. Because every place I go, it’s unbelievable.” One lady “really touched me the other night … She just kept clinging to my hand and said, ‘You have to run. You have to run.’ And so many people tell me that, and so I think I’m starting to hear something.”
The thing is, if it were me, I wouldn’t want a text message telling me to run. I’d want one that told me that I would win.
Wouldn’t you?
