Congrats, America: Ben Carson Is Now Your 2016 GOP Frontrunner

Feel the Carsonmentum. Breathe it in. Embrace it. It's happening.

With "infallible" polling data in hand, The Huffington Post can declare celebrated neurosurgeon and conservative heartthrob Ben Carson as the frontrunner for the Republican presidential nomination in 2016. At least that's according to a new CNN/ORC International poll released Tuesday, which shows Carson topping a stacked list of right-wing favorites and establishment picks alike -- including New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie, Rep. Paul Ryan of Wisconsin, Sen. Rand Paul of Kentucky and even Sen. Ted Cruz of Texas.

It makes sense on so many levels if the GOP hopes to actually put forth a candidate that can actually swing a major portion of the millennial and ethnic landscape from the Dems

There are 20+ Repulsicons who have hinted at a 2016 run, most would be cast away early......like the 1st debate.... the idiotic GOP leadership however will probably try to force Bush (Mr Common Core, status quo, statist, corporate sell out, himself) on the voters and lose yet another presidential election in their stupidity.

Peter King, Mr "if I only had a brain", Ryan, and probably Mr Crispy Creme, would be some of the 1st to go down in flames!

Carson or Paul are their best hope

Hopefully the voters aren't as stupid as the Dems believe them to be, but history I'm afraid, bears evidence to their beliefs

Im thinking the same,, but it depends upon what other candidates there are.

People felt McCain would be a shoe in til he chose Palin.

It will matter who the democrats and others put on their ballot, to know how much of an advantage Carson would have.

How can be be a Republican front runner if he isn't a registered Republican.com/ I mean I like the guy and all but I don't think he stands a chance.

I honestly am pulling for Jeb Bush or Rick Perry. :)
