Ever heard of Savants? I think this is what we're dealing with here.
One can be highly intelligent and ignorant about certain things at the same time. I am relatively "smart" about legal affairs since I graduated from a good law school, passed the bar on my first try and have been practicing law for over 37 years. But I'm pretty ignorant of neurosugery. And since I stopped taking math classes once I squeaked through college freshman calculus (which is now taught to smart 11th graders), I know little of rocket science aside from the solid booster models I shot off with my son when he was 14.
Carson was an excellent neurosurgeon by all accounts and he probably his a high intellect. But if he relied exclusively on his Bible, his Seventh Day Adventist minister and Fox News for his knowledge about public affairs, history and legal affairs (including Constitutional principles) he could be extraordinarily ignorant of those things--- as he is demonstrating nearly every day.
Cain had a successful business background after his work with rockets and rarely mentioned his service with the Federal Reserve. His demonstrated ignorance and disdain of knowledge of foreign affairs made him sound dumb in that area. Plus, the American robber barons of the late-19th and early-20 Century were "good businessmen" too and not many people think they would have made good presidents.

It is almost never worth the effort to feed internet trolls, but this didn't take much effort.

I wouldn't have blamed him for not immediately knowing the name of the president of Uzbekistan, but to pick a country as an example of a "gotcha question" and butcher its name, even for comedic effect, sounded dumb.
As the OP, have you already forgotten that the thread is about Cain and Carson, not Obama?who gives a shit....didnt matter
